you guys need to relax. The first half is the rewards I suppose and the conclusion of the WOTG missions. The 2nd half is the apoc Nigh style fight battle fusing together with TOAU storyline like how Zilart and CoP fused.
Thats how I took it anyways. I hope the level cap is 90 in sept and not 85 cause I wanna start lowmanning stuff as I never had a big LS to do stuff with. If they do release the rewards in the 2nd half, then you got some level 99 gear to use and its probably epic as hell.
There will be plenty of stuff with the new abyssea add-on, the level grinds, the new magian trials (armor+weapon?) and new NMs to justify another WOTG wait now. (although I admit, this is the most dragged out expansion in gaming history)
