Final Fantasy XIV: A Lawn Reborn

[miokomioko]

Glancing back at the new concept art:

Looks like they're keeping The Whale's Gape in tact (western edge of Mistbeard Cove).

A sweet looking jungle village that looks like home to Goblins or Qiqirn.

What looks like the unearthed skeleton of Leviathan in La Noscea?

Ancient ruins appear to be sprouting up around Mor Dhona.

And of course, it looks like Ishgard got fucked... but the terrain surrounding it doesn't look right since Ishgard was way out in that valley with no land near it.

Well, there goes another 5 years of my life. CANNOT WAIT

in the dragoon inventory shot, actions 6 7 8 & 9 represent my face from when i first clicked this thread, read a few posts, and then saw the new screenshots

Pretty much what everyone is saying. Overhaul has totally overhauled the game making it significantly more awesome (looking anyway) I love that you can jump off the new lancers guild down to a lower part of the map, makes navigating cities easier I'm sure. Love not blinking, new UI, meteors etc.. They have even updated the animations /cheer and /dance which look so much better.

I'd consider switching to roegardyn, but I'm not sure if my swimsuit will still fit D:

Warning: Roegadyn jump is lolgorillastomp.

[Gokulo]

Aside of everything else being really good, I was happily surprised at the no blinking part.

[Thuronn]

Shit is so boss. Can't wait for the other footage we get in the next few days!

[blythe]

Glad someone recorded video, hope they don't take it down.

I don't understand holding back on info/media if this is indeed the "flood" of information they had discussed

Everything looks so smooth, looks like the wait and the bullshit will be worth it.

hmmm...

Spoiler: show

Good thing I was prepared.

[Spira]

I'm throwing money at my screen, but nothing is happening.

lol the limit break thing surprised even me.
you can see it was cast by the BLM, so i'm guessing its activated by the party, but effect is dependent on 1 user.
definitely adds a whole new dimension of battle.

i'm pretty sure that isn't Gridania.. cos zones aren't seamless anymore.
so guessing by lowbie mobs, thats probably camp bentbranch..?
looks gorgeous, really.

[miokomioko]

When the enter/exit the outpost of sorts it says "Bentbranch Meadow."

[Spira]

geez. let me be subtle will you?

WILD MOFOING SPECULATION: I'm guessing that the limit break may ultimately be similar in execution to summoning a Primal.

part 2: summoning a primal is the limit break for the Summoner job. the rest of the time they can call smaller critters!

[Manako]

I figured they probably want to leave it up to the media to share the news, so that people are funneling to various media sites instead of ffxiv.com. Probably keeps the press happy.

MY BAD

Seeing this shit makes me furrow my brow at the current version even more. >:\

[Insanecyclone]
