FFXI not dead !!! New city + zone idea

[Hercule]

Hi,

I know that FFXI main storyline is done now with Rapsodies of Vana'diel.
But it's should be possible to make a side story maybe?

If this ever happend a day, it should be really cool to make this Zone please! with new city and zones

Thanks

Isn't that Tavnazia before the war?
And uh, Misareaux Coast and Lufaise Meadows?

Only slightly related: I always wanted to get to explore Jeuno {S} and Tavnazia {S}.

Yeah, I am still slightly disappointed that Tavnazia wasn't a place you could travel to in the Wings of the Goddess expansion.
On the other hand, considering Wings' storyline they'd have to make two instances of the zone depending on how far you progressed through.
*Spoiler alert*

The battle of Jeuno somewhere half way the Wings' storyline takes place at the exact same moment as the battle of Tavnazia, and we all know that didn't end well for them.
They could have probably made due with a post battle version, but what would be there to explore and defend... a pile of smoldering rubble and a lot of corpses, /hurray~

As for Jeuno itself, I don't think it would have differed much from present day apart from the lack of an Auction house and probably vendors.
And as you could pretty much teleport anywhere and back in Wings of the Goddess there wasn't such a great need for a central hub to travel from either.

FFXI isn't dead at all, they are still going to update it. They just aren't making any more expansion packs.

For now, they might change their mind as they always do. Lets be honest, they made it seem like after NOV there would be like 0 content updates, and now we getting an update every month with new stuff (rehashed models but still new stuff.)

That city is effectively destroyed or uninhabited. And is involved in the Promathia/original main story.

There will never be a new city, but it certainly wouldn't ever be that one if there was, because it doesn't make sense within the story of the game.

In the very old .dat, there was a train around Jeuno (rail and stuff).
I'd like to see the "futur" with new technologies, but let's be honest, never gonna happen' ~

It would be cool to explore the ruins of Tavnazia but I suspect the Orc's just destroyed it and left so there probably isn't much left worth exploring.

Bastok had an endpoint for this train that would never see the light of day- That's what the Depot, which is on the map in Bastok Mines but sealed off, is for.
