I stan Alphy's character development. Me too, lil buddy.

#this is very much the Girls Night expansion with Lyse and Alisaie but Alphy should still get a nod for this :P #learning not to trust capitalists my baby <3 #tbh the Hancock intro speech talking about a shadow war with capitalism links right into the most recent patch's economy stuff #and the fact R-a-H is very much a part of this trade circle #*plus Carv is probably raiding Vrtra's ships for the spices HE trades #does remind you that all these players have been on the board so long #(I mean the HW alc quests teach you R-a-H alchemists can make human homunculi which sure is a detail to keep in mind) #endwalker spoilers #ffxiv #anyway I remain constantly fascinated by the portrayal of global capitalism in this game #especially since it's somewhere between 1700s trade routes and next day delivery #and like... medieval situations #garlean magitek is there too #alas I just listen to podcasts about the current world real news I don't know any real economic theory
