[FF14] I spent the better part of an hour wondering why the new patch is called "The Legend Returns" and then they showed the key art

we might be going to Rabanastre

which kind of seemed to be in ruins...

this is another artwork they showed

in not-related-to-Ivalice news, it sounds like the 2.0 and 3.0 24 people raids will be added to... roulettes? and they can be undersized

bards will actually be able to play instruments

(with notes bond to hotbars and instruments slowly being added with new patches)

and they're adding a cross-world friendlist (you will also be able to /tell friends across worlds I think?)

wait what? the ability to glamour will be introduced for somewhere around level 15 instead of 50? (I'm going off what someone said on twitter for this since I don't actually speak Japanese and it wasn't in any of the powerpoint slides (which have English translations))

awww - from the live letter's forum thread: "In the world of FFXIV, the Final Fantasy Tactics story is a well-known fairy tale known by anyone from Garlemald. Keeping the FFT story as a base, it also has an essence of FFXII. [...] Players will enter Rabanastre as the first part of their journey."

Shriek

SHRIEK

right?

don't scare your thieving kitties

Haha no they'll just be like "oh we can play with mom!"

oh, and you can now buy these from the mogstation

!!!!!!

the weapons are only for the classes shown, but you get the whole set (for one character) for four or five bucks (not sure about the $ price)
