Expansion Livestream Reaction thread (Spoilers) Expan. Release June 23rd!


Recommended Posts

In this writing moment there's 6 hours until the livestream (12pm ET) 

http://www.twitch.tv/finalfantasyxiv 

 

I've already got my stream window sorted, really excited for it! 

 

What are you hoping they'll show us on the stream? 

 

Personally I am hoping we'll get to know a bit more Au Ra lore, and then I really want to see what the airships are like.

 

Details so far (trying to filter out what we already know)

 

- The scale of the content is comparable to an entirely new mmorpg 

- The floating continent will be in Heavensward's areas 

- Taking to the sky is a major theme in both the expansion and the following patches 

- New raid: Alexander. Has 2 different difficulties, normal and hardcore. Also has a new loot system.

- The Au ra will be very custumizable. Example given was the female, which can be cutesy and petitie of beastly and succubus-like. 

- Next month there will be a benchmark type software for the expansion where you can try out customization.

- Deeper explanation of how they select and develop new jobs. 

- Showoff of new AF armor: DoM+DoW | DoH+DoL (Thanks for the links, Kismet!)

- Expansion date! June 23rd, early access is June 19th 

- Showoff of the expansion zones

Pretty hyped for this! Mostly because I want to see what the team can really do outside of the already established theme of Eorzea they started with (Which they did a great job of making their own.)

 

I want to see some new class skills for everything toooooo! And AST skills, I must know!

 

HYYYPPPPEEEEEE!!!

My reaction is pretty simple.

 

AHHHHH I WANT EVERYTHING HNNNGH.

 

Also, yay for pre-orders starting in the month that I'll have a lot of overtime and spare cash. So CE it is for me! Because June 23rd is my one year anniversary date at my job, so I'll need early access because I can't conveniently be sick of xpac release day.

 

Seriously excited, though. Everything looks so good! I can't wait!
