Personally, I'm interested but at the same time, I really don't want to get my hope too high until I see more.
I forget I have the garden plot at my house. I'd hate to see what happens if I forget about an entire farm…..
Ultimate content could be permanently removed from the game and a very small part of the population would care, soemthing tells me this island stuff is gonna be like a million times more sued than all ultimate content put together.
Meoni still has that new hairstyle. :3
Why play Harvest Moon when you can play Harvest Moon in XIV with your WoL
I like the idea of Island Sanctuary. High-end PvE content is not the ideal situation for all players, including people with physical and mental health limitations.
id sell my house if this came out for everyone i just would not have any need for it i only bought a house for gardening
i love that they're truly trying something new for once. sure, they tried with things like eureka and bozja, but at the end of the day its just been a new take on combat. its a breath of fresh air to finally have something this big thats completely different.
I don't think Island Sanctuary is something we needed. I rather had the resources spend on PvE (=more Story) content.
I want it. Right now. 🙁
For the love of hydaelyn, please just let me put down all the outdoor furnishings I’ve accumulated but can’t use because I can only get an apartment. Please SE
"Distant island that will never get to explore"
If Bozja is the southern part of Ilsebard, that's probably actually Thavnair!
The island sanctuary could also be a good place to add content 2 get Relic style gear for Crafters
Taming Content with fighting monsters? Did you ever try Pankration in FFXI? Not to be confused with Omega's Pantokrator mode… But it was content I was excited for that… Didn't really…. Work… I always blame Tanaka for these things, but they didn't give you enough agency with the control of the creatures and the selection of monsters was limited at best. If there is any beast raising… Well. Perhaps this content presents the necessity for a place to keep your creatures.
Also of note, I dunno how much you know about 1.0 Meoni… I always bring up I played the 1.0 Alpha, so I know everything about the history of this game from behind the scenes from the start. But I bring this up because there was information hacked out of the Alpha with the additional CLASSES that were planned to be added. There is the forever lost 4th Disciple of Land class… Shepard. In 1.0 Coerthas they even had a sign indicating a Shepard's guild. Shepard was obviously cut and anything relating too it has been removed, but it was a class that we had solid evidence for, just like Musketeer (which still does have a guild sign). This content I feel might finally be the realization of Shepard, perhaps combining it with Beast Tamer as a limited job.
Honestly I am not sure why people are so excited over FFXIV implementing Garrisons. But hopefully this turns out better.
Excited but wary. When content designed after a different genre of game is added to an mmo it is often not nearly as good or complete as the stand alone game. Sometimes it's barely a shadow of it. There is also the feeling of disconnection that can occur like you are actually playing another game. like it's not even in the same world or universe as the rest of the game. I believe that even solo content should have connections to other content and have some form of player interaction. For example some sort of connection with crafting and gathering, like some items used on the far can be crafted. The items you grow can be used in crafting, but not in a way that it eliminates the need for those classes. Maybe trade with your friends like real farmers? Maybe have fairs or farmers markets occasionally. A stable for racing chocobos. I hope you can at least invite people over.
A lot of people are hoping for some form of housing on this island, but I'm doubtful. A lot of people are in favor of and instanced housing system that is separate from the neighborhood system. This would be a good place to do this. Give everyone a farm house and maybe as you grow your farm you gain the option to upgrade the house? It would be nice if this would at very least allow nn house owner to do things that only house owners can do: Use outside housing items and gardening.
I don't expect much due to UI limitations and clunkiness
I'm so excited for the islands… If that content is even slightly good I might never buy another video game again.
one condition : don't give us the FF14 equivalent of Tom Nook in our farm, i have an instinctive reaction to yell at dudes like Tom Nook
I'm so excited for the island sanctuary! I love content like this! But I'm also a strange one, considering that one of the things I'm most excited about for Endwalker is more sightseeing vistas. XD I'm sure I'll be spending a ton of time at the island!
I really REALLY hope they lean hard into Island Sanctuary. I even wouldn't mind a NPC town nearby that you can interact with, and get married to one of the NPC's like Harvest Moon or the Rune Factory games.
My only bit of advice is not to get hyped or excited, you’re just setting yourself up for inevitable disappointment.
If I can just garden and crossbreed plants without needing a house to do so, then I know I'm gonna love it. Everything else will be icing on the cake
I should proably point out that by the time we're doing our island sanctuary the whole world ending situation will be more or less resolved.
I'm super excited!
However, out of everything, I'm worried about the UI navigation.
Gardening is a pain in the ass to do because of how the menu works, how selecting seeds work, etc. What makes games like harvest moon and stardew valley so fun and relaxing is how dynamic they are in those terms. You don't have UI's popping up to make you confirm things, select stuff, etc. So I'm hoping that this content will have something different for that, like a custom hotbar that allows you to put hoes, shovels, pickaxes, axes, etc in it and just press a button to interact with the environment.
Ah yes the WoL retirement plan
I wish you said Story of Seasons instead of Harvest Moon because the Harvest Moon that's published now is just a bastardization of the real game. Also I just hope it doesn't end up like garrisons in wow.
Seems a bit silly to make a 13 minute video based on some art work. We have no idea how this will play or how important it will be.
I'm very excited for the island sanctuary. The last time I was this excited was when it looked like Warlords of Draenor Garrisons were gonna be great…I hope it stays with their characteristic spectacular quality, no reason to believe otherwise yet.
Not gonna lie I would LOVE it if they let us pick what area we want out farm to be in. If this is going to be instanced (which it should be, I cannot see how else they would do this) then that would be VERY easy to do and would add to the experience.
does this mean that they're getting rid of the real-space housing and just going for this? also will there be just tone island or are there a few choices?
I am so looking forward to this, I have it all planned out in my head, (I have way to much spare time on my hands to be fair)
I imagine a lot of soil and seeds will be needed, I have already got a lot of each but more can not hurt so I will be making sure to stockpile everything. The rearing animals thing is so interesting and exciting, is it possibly going to end up being a mount, who knows. The minions being out on the island sanctuary would be awesome, and I cant wait for that, I do not personally see them helping out though (just do not see that somehow – my dog in real life does nothing I ask her, so that's where Im getting that from) I imagine we will have to possibly hire npc's like you have to with the Grand Company.
I honestly just can not wait for it, Cute, Adorable, and 100% awesome, I cant wait.
The "Woke" cancel culture group is trying to do away with violent vid games, SE just might be planning for the future, it will happen, hehe I played Farm Together for over a year and loved it, was very addicting. The only reason I stopped was because they didn't add the special content for longer than a year and it's all repetition now.
Okay I appreciate this but. WHEN THEY GONNA LET ME INTERACT WITH MY STOVE AT HOME WHEN I COOK.
It would be neat that the island had a house built on it and we could upgrade it that would fix the housing problem.
If there's no place to stay on the island like a cottage that you can decorate then I don't see any reason to go there. If there is then I'd love to do the other content there.
I’m looking forward for this, but the only issue is we hardly know anything about it other than what we’re assuming. If it truly is a Harvest Moon like mode in the game, I’m all for it.
I just hope Island Sanctuaries are their version of instanced housing, I don't think I can handle the botters and spammers without exploding obscenities, causing a scene on the server and tearing into the scumbags like the good for nothing waste of space that they are for buying every house in the ward with their alt accounts.
This is drawing heavy influence from your mog garden you get in FFXI. It’s an island that is yours and you can do certain things on the island. It’s going to be that but a lot more depth I would guess
Thank you for this vid! Short of the MSQ/new lands, this is my most looked forward to feature of Endwalker. I've played Harvest Moon since forever. I can't wait.
If there's a village of some kind to interact with, I will be over the moon. No pun intended. lol I'll settle for this essentially being instanced housing (minus the decorating probably), though. I mean, you can't give me a farm without a farmhouse, can you? No, you cannot. Also, having your minion collection running around everywhere… that'll be great. I hope you can show all of them at once. Maybe all your mounts too???
This is just right for me too, i absolutely need this kind of retreat from the world ingame. Just peacefully doing things in this little space of mine, growing things or just enjoying the fields….A getaway to enjoy in peace.
