Exploring the 13th, even in dialogue it sounds like it's going to be a multi part raid esque but and as a more casual player that bothers me.
4(2) was one of my favorite games as a kid. Though I'm old enough to have played the first one when it was "current content". The FF games were a staple of my formative years. The music in the "Knight in black" cutscene made the hair on my arms stand up. I absolutely hope that this is a hint to the 7.0 story and that it won't just be filler. I bet (hope) that Zenos' voidsent turns out to be Zemus.
6.1 was fantastic. Hopefully future patches are just a few friends at a time. no more bloated casts where alisaie takes up all the screen time with her 40 year old smokers voice.
I'm not sure if we could have a whole expansion on the 13th in its current state, like I'm not sure you could have many friendly NPC's around and a city like we normally have but perhaps it could be a zone or two with meracydia being the main focus of the next expansion. As far as I can remember the 13th and the 1st are the only shards we really know anything about so I think they'd want to spend some time setting up or hinting at what the other shards are like before we go to any. I'm also curious if we can somehow fix the 13th, with Eden we were able to restore the aether balance to the empty on the 1st so I wonder if we could do something similar to the 13th if we find or get did to build an Eden equivalent.
Final Fantasy II (IV) was my hook as well. I had played Dragon Warrior and liked it, but I wanted something with more story. After Final Fantasy II (IV), I dove hard into any RPG I got my child hands on. As soon as I heard the beginning of the song and saw Cecil's brother on screen, I knew it was going to be a great new story. Who knows, maybe we go to the moon of the Thirteenth and FuSoYa is there as a beacon of light.
Final Fantasy 1 is probably the most influential game in my life, and the series as a whole. FFIV, I remember fighting the last boss for like an hr downing elixirs on Cecil til he started casting meteor, and then widdling him down. I love the direction they are taking as we are just adventurers. G'raha and Yshtola def are going to be I feel the two most important chars going forward, and I am ok with this.
I may be wrong but I think the elementals was setting up a trial series.
I'm confident that the void is 7.0. Whether it is a zone or multiple zones or something much lesser I am waiting to see.
My hope is that we find fissures to other shards.
I'm guessing that Golbez IS the dragon who's name I'm not going to try and spell. It stood out to me that Cid said it would be easier to cover the warding scale in armor rather than enhance it, who's to say that She didn't do the same thing? Her scales provide protection against the corruption but are eroded by the void just like the warding scale so if She wrapped herself in armor as well to protect herself especially after the line about dragons not having true genders.
I rented FF4 every chance I could get growing up. When I finally beat Zeromus the first time, I was so excited. For a 12-13 year old kid, FF4 was pretty hard – even in the easy version they sent to the US as FF2. FF4 was the game that made FF what it became in the SNES and PS1 eras.
brian, question. when you're talking about the whole 13th shard it made me wonder. have you finished all the shadowbringers role quests? i think you may be missing some context here :O maybe you just straight avoided it, but the final role quest is pretty heavy on the 13th shard
I'd like to see Zenos' voidsent be wrapped up as the 6.3 trial.
Golbez I think will be our new big bad, hopefully for the next few expansions. I don't want us to go to another shard just yet, I think it's still a bit to close to us doing that in Shadowbringers, I'd like to stick on the source for one more, maybe go to the 13th (and more?) in 8.0 but keep Golbez and his planned war against the source as a constant threat in the background, like the Ascians were in previous expansions.
Y'shtola finally got to be front and center and awesome. And all we had to do was punt the twins off camera for an entire MSQ segment for the first time since 2.2. I love the twins, but it's been 9 years. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or my favorite variation "How can I miss you if you never leave?"
I feel like 6.1 is starting a road to lead us back to the 1st and other reflections
