Alpha First Look: Video 2 - Gridania

[Triairy]

Here is "Gridania," our second entry in the Alpha First Look video series!

This video takes us on a tour through the completely revamped Gridania. The city-state has taken on an all-new look that features everything from a refurbished aetheryte plaza to cuddly delivery moogles! We really wanted to liven up the mood of the entire metropolis, so we focused on bringing the surrounding environment to life by adding babbling brooks, lush foliage, and a dynamic populace. You'll also notice that the names of unique landmarks appear on screen as you explore.



Be sure to let us know what you think!

The soapy-heeled swiveling as the camera is panned makes me giggle.

Great video of Gridania! I am getting so excited. Thank you for sharing more with us!

I kind of hope we have another camera rotating option that doesn't involve also moving the character (I'm pretty sure they will implement both styles, no?).

Looks incredible! Great job SE!

I love how it combines familiar locations with new ones.

I 100% AGREE!! That is awesome!!

For the new players that will come to the game it will be exciting and new to them.

To us old vets who have endured so much and been here since day 1, it will remind us of the past and the obstacles we overcame to reach this point. Bringing back memories of the time before the Great War!

Well Played SE, Well Played!!

Absolutely love this video! I'm so stoked for the release of the game now ( >3<)♪

Congratulations to Yoshi, the Dev team and all the other staff working on ARR, you're doing a fantastic job!

I love the new Gridania and the only thing I have slight problems with is the moogle. Are the mail moogles going to be drooping and bobbing like that for a long time? It just makes me uncomfortable and is a bit annoying but, then again it's a small thing.

Other than that little part I think this looks beautiful and I'm so excited for ARR! Thank you so much for posting another video I look forward to each new bit of information released.

We should campaign for moogle rights! I'm sure there are laws against making creatures carry 5x their own weight.

I just want to let them sit down or perhaps try helping them hold the bag. Then again maybe just a chair for the bag? Haha

I thought the moogle struggling with the weight of the bag was a nice touch and very FF
