Just from skimming, a couple things came to mind:

1.) Those Gold Saucer-themed weapons amuse me. Along with the Gambler's outfit, you can probably do a whole nice theme for the Saucer now. I kinda want to see all the other weapon options.

2.) It's surprisingly nice to find that the new jobs are starting at level 50 rather than 30 like in HW. Just 20 levels to hit cap instead of 30, though I feel the HW FATEs are gonna be pretty crowded for a while.

3.) The death debuffs hurt MORE in the combat stats, but apparently now you won't suddenly have a lot less health? And it lasts a bit less. I guess the overall feeling is that you have a better chance to survive until it fades, but you're not really going to be contributing?

4.) Sound effects for draw actions. I always liked the Lightning Returns book because it made noises when it unfolded. Gotta hear all the rest now too.

5.) There are fishing nodes. MINING FOR FISH IS A REALITY.

6.) If Legendary and Unspoiled nodes won't close while they're still being looted... will people be able to "hold" them for other people to get there?

7.) Region map change seems super handy, oh my god.

8.) Pucker up emote. That is all.

Downloaded -- their compression really impresses me tbh. 6 gigs? Lol.

Got to love the snail download speed SE patcher provides : <

Also errored out once already downloading it, hopefully try two manages to grab it.

Edit: Seriously, it's bouncing between 1mb and 10mb constantly. Patcher make up your mind.

Also thank you Berrod for the advice!

Remember if it gives you that big error message window, go to internet options and delete your temporary internet files!

Snail speed is not on SQEnix's end.  Patch took less then 15 min for me.

I'm half expecting a second phase to this patch, 6GB for the amount of content added is impressive.

That moment when you become so hyped that it causes your body to actually hurt.

*Drools at PvP giving experience*

I will 70 all my classes solely through PvP. This is a blessing!

Need more furnishings! NEED. ALL THE FURNISHINGS.

No problem! Some users outside of the US will experience the speed roller coaster. Don't worry, it'll go up to your max speed enough to complete before long!

Woohoo, excited! I saved Heavensward MSQs for Red Mage, can't wait to get started on those, can't wait to play the class I subbed for, can't wait to learn what their story is all about! 

Eastern aesthetic isn't really my thing, but I have to say those new zones look really great. Maybe I'll learn to love the Far East like I did Pandaria (best WoW expansion don't fight me).

This is something I just noticed. Ul'dah is going to be a cluster with both new jobs starting their questlines IN UL'DAH.

I mean, it's good that you're not stuck having to go to the new zones like with the HW jobs but... putting both new job start quests in the most populace citystate (at least on Balmung, anyway) just seems to be asking for trouble.

There will be multiple patches. Pray log into the game client at later times to ensure that you've downloaded the latest.

Quote:Emotes used in the Aquapolis immediately before the gate selection cutscene will no longer be canceled.

Literally playable.

I think so too.

There was an interview with Yoshi-P where he says that RDM will be in Ul'dah, but he also says that those looking for SAM would be fine logging out in Ul'dah as well. I hoped that this meant that SAM would be at Vesper Bay or the ease was contributed to teleporting to wherever we wanted... I never thought we'd have both jobs in the same City State. At least they're not in the same sections.
