Dev Tracker: Discussion

Have they released modern statistics for that? I find it hard to believe that that's still the case. At the very least they've moved on to PS3

^ this, I'm seriously skeptic the "majority" of the JP playerbase still plays on PS2.

[Trumpy]

Hopefully this is why over the last couple of years they have done just a few things that were applicable to 360 and PC only. But then a few months later they did stuff to allow PS2 to function like that option to see everyone in beginner RSE instead of gearswaps for ps2 peeps.

i remember reading in a FF14 interview a question: "will you still support the PS3 version of FF14?" and the answer was mote like: "after the ps4 releas and when the ps3reaches its limits we wil drop its support like we did with FFXI on the PS2 lately. was like 6months ago.

maybe the new UI launch will be accompanied with the drop of the PS2 support.

The picture with that new quest looks like it has a Dragoon in it. Maybe we'll finally learn about Adoin's Dragoons which are mysteriously absent on SoA despite Achetelle saying they're prolific(along with Wyverns and Dragons which we've seen zero of).

[Malithar]

Drg looks to be wearing new armor as well (nevermind, that's Pup Empy body), and that sword looks sorta new-ish. Don't remember seeing anything with runes right above the hilt like that. They did say before that they were adding one quest with this update, and most assumed it would be to tie up the Lillies/Velkk for Intrusion, but that doesn't seem to be the case. :/ Granted this quest series has always been fairly solid on the lore as well.

those 2 are Cirdas and Hennetiel, as far as I remember them from Ergon Locus RUN Weapon quest cutscenese.

They really are desperate to add teasers aren't they lol

well this is nice, the quests seem to revolve around the past of adoulin and king august, there isnt much known about that. The ergon weapon quests of RUN and GEO shed some light on it and the missions, but not much else. We have barely touched the history of the 12 followeres of King August. Granted Morimar is involved in the missions, Marjami gets some light on the RUN mythic quest as the legendary RUN and Rala is the legendary GEO (who prolly errected the giant geomagnetic fountain/seal in Rala Waterways). the others have some small guest apearance like Cirdas and Hennetiel in the RUN Mythic quest line, otherwise not much is knowns about them. Its nice to go a bit deeper via quests on there.

[Ophannus]

Interesting, Hennestial in previous artwork in cutscenes looked to be wearing Lancer(AF3) armor. Maybe this shows him before becoming one of August's kinsman.

[Priran]

is this the same questline that had that ergisade horseshit

Yes, and if you've done the missions that name makes sense.

[Hitou]

I have never seen artwork of hennetiel

Spoiler: show

This guy, pretty sure. Image from spira's site.

Left Side:
WAR, GEO, BRD(turban),WHM(hood),THF(Bonnet)

Right Side:RDM, BLM, MNK, SAM(he has a Kabuto with the pointed crest), PLD(wearing a shield and a full helm like a GM), DRG

Wondering if they can make an ultimate weapon for each of the 12 orders? GS,Polearm,Gaxe,Dagger,Sword,Polearm,Instrument,Cl ub,Staff,H2H,Shield,GK. Would only be missing a weapon for NIN and BST, the other jobs could share weapons, like DRK/RUN on GS and SMN/BLM on Staff, GEO/WHM on club etc.

"Ultimate Weapons" again...

It'd be neat lore wise

None of them were wearing any kind of AF Empy or Relic armor during CS appropriate to their job. Marjami was a RUN wearing hagondes body, cirdas was wearing coalition gear with a sword and shield (banner of update) Hennetiel was wearing pup empy but had a lance. The only one resembling his job was Rala as a Geo with AF/Relic pieces. That artwork is nowhere close to what was shown in cutscenes during ergon weapon quests.

[Ophannus]

I think they maybe only wore their JSE before going on their final raid of Ra'Kazanar. Similar to the Hydra Corps putting on AF2 before the battle of Xarcabard. maybe the Ergon quests CS were when they were younger or when they first swore allegience to August? (idk, I didn't do any of em).

[Ophannus]

Can I quote this for when they actually do release them?

[Priran]

Yes, and if you've done the missions that name makes sense.

yeah, the missions that came out after the quest, so I stick by it being horseshit
