As much as I sometimes am reluctant to face change, the most exciting and awesome thing about any expansion for any game, to me, is the changes that get rolled out. Changing up how a class is played, new races, new classes, new content -- it freshens a game up, and gives you that new car feel where you want to drive everywhere and make up excuses to do so.

But mostly class changes. I don't feel it as much with Heavansward because I've been about as lackadaisical a player as you can get (from the side of progression and shit), but mastering the new things about a class is what I typically get most excited about. Even if I don't necessarily like the changes, aiming for mechanical perfection in setup and execution was usually what drove me to play for hours and hours and hours.

But really I'm looking forward to new toys, though I don't feel it as much because I never fully explored ARR.

It's an expac. It has stuff. That's all it really needed.

That a significant portion of the stuff is stuff I don't care about (MSQ, Ishgarde, etc.) doesn't really matter.

New mechanics should satisfy me plenty while I gripe about the rest. I just hope if we find interesting stuff that they won't nerf it to the ground and actually incorporate it.

Machinist.

Machinist, machinist, machinist, machinist, machinist. I WANT TO SHOOT GUN. GUN IS GOOD. GUN IS FRIEND.

After that, I suppose I'm really looking forward to hearing Soken's latest work in long form. He only ever seems to get better at his craft over time. It's amazing how consistently good his work's been.

And then, after that? Everything else. Basically. New areas, dungeons, main story, etc. are all on about the same level for me. Which is not to say I don't care about these things, but rather that I am simply not looking forward to them as much as I am just being able to SHOOT GUN. BLAMMO!

I'm looking forward to the class shake-ups.

I'm looking forward to Astrologian.

I'm looking forward to cursing and battling our cruel and capricious god: the one, the only, the RNG.

Draw another card!

I'm interested in seeing what kind of gear drops from it. Kind of hoping for some steampunk-ish Goblin-like gear, considering. This is purely for selfish reasons, mind. -sighs at Hibito-

Bismarck! Ravana!

I suspect Bismarck will be similar to Cerberus and we'll be swallowed up and fight him from within due to his size.

I'm looking forward to Au Ra and DRK to be able to fully "realize" the character concept I'm trying to go for with Judge. People really seem to enjoy him, so I'm a little eager to get him in his "true form" and start doing more stuff with him. I've been holding back on a lot because I was iffy with going with the whole "Oh, he's actually an Au Ra and looks like this... ignore the Highlander model" and stuff. Blush

Also?

Bexy · **06-10-2015, 08:21 AM**

Most? Our of everything?

Getting to explore, once again. Seeing something for the first time, and being like "Wow, that was amazing!"

Having started on a different server, and not being able to experience the release content with my friends, this is going to be a big thing for me.

The same could also be said about Bexy ICly!

Also, the music. From what little snippets i have heard? It's going to be amazing, and my phone had better make way for all this new awesome stuff i'm going to be listening to!

Martiallais · **06-10-2015, 09:37 AM**

Crossing over into DRK territory with Martiallais and seeing how long I can run with that RP is definitely at the top of my list, followed closely by just more places to RP that are Ishgard related.

New Monk skills (and to a lesser degree everyone else's skills), new limit breaks and honestly more game/dungeons/raids to poke at. I'm looking to get a new computer in the future and once I don't have bits of lag here and there I'd really like to try raaaaaiding some more.

cuideag · **06-10-2015, 10:30 AM**

PRIMALS AND THEIR EX MODES. I WANNA BEAT EM UP. Also Alexander NM and HM. If Omega shows up then OMEEGGAAAAAAAAAA. I've been pining for an Ultima EX so I will fervently pray that Omega will give me the kick that I crave. (Otanoshimi ni, Amen.)

Steel Wolf · **06-10-2015, 10:33 AM**

I've been squirming in my seat about it and rambling in excitement for the inclusion of Dark Knight so much that either people will get so annyoed that they want to RP with me less than they do now, or they'll be delighted by the fact I have the job so I can shut the hell up about it. So that's definitely prime in my list.

Otherwise, it'll be just enjoying having to re-learn how to play all over again, with all the excitement and annoyance that entails. I'm also looking forward to watching other people in action. Watching Ninjas operate was a personal delight of mine, so getting to see all new jobs and all new actions for everyone is gonna be a treat.

Aris · **06-10-2015, 12:00 PM**

Lots of things! So hyped. Nine more daaaaaays.

I love the excited/curious feeling you get when entering a new area, so I'm looking forward to having that feeling again, although it won't last long.Â Rolleyes

Alexander. When FCOB was released, I had only just started Second Coil. It'll be great to get in on the raid scene at an equal level to everyone else, do blind runs, and have to work out our own stategy.
Raiding is my #1 favourite thing to do about the game, so I'm praying I can find a team who want to run it at release.

Astrologist & Summoner! The SMN rework sounds VERY interesting.

And lastly, just generally excited for roleplay. It's taken a while, but I have a lil' more confidence to put myself out there, so fingers crossed I can finally build some meaningful relationships on my character Nara, and maybe get involved in a plot of some sort.Â Tongue

Edit: OH AND CRAFTING. NEW PRETTY FISHING AREAS. EVERYTHING. Just everything.

Telluride · **06-10-2015, 12:05 PM**

The main stuff's already been mentioned, sooooo..........

This may sound unusual, but I am very curious to see if a new RP hub will form in Ishgard, since so many people are going to be there. We really don't know if there IS an actual Adventurer's Guild in Ishgard, really, or if there will be spaces in town suitable for forming a useful hub. Of course, Uldah isn't going to empty out completely overnight, but it'll be a massive migration, for sure.

I'm also going to be quite amused to see Mor Dhona become a ghost town in comparison to the way it is now.

Hyrist · **06-10-2015, 12:45 PM**

Between Eric and Lin, I don't know who to start with.

Eric was my first character in Balmung and my start to Rping in FFXIV, but Lin is my Legacy Character from Excalibur that I brought over. Lin for the most part was my primary character to play but Eric holds just as much emotional investment in him, especially seeming I cleared A Realm Reborn with him BEFORE doing the storyline as Lin to accentuate the differences between the two character origins.

Eric is a Summoner/Scholar, and I am VERY interested into seeing how Summoner develops. (As well as its storyline.)

Then Lin being a Dragoon, major plot and mechanical additions to her are coming up and I'm just squee.

I've got two characters worth the excitement coming down the pipeline for me - I'm not sure where to begin.
