When it says Abyssea for free, does that mean no traverser stones needed for a while and we're getting 9 new atma and the ability to infuse a fourth atma?
Or does that mean, "Those of you who don't have the add-ons get temporary free access and get rewarded for not buying the add-ons yet?"

From my angle, it looks like they're saying that the three or four players that haven't purchased the Abyssea expansions will be able to enter those zones for a few weeks to play around, and that they'll have access to those stat bonuses while they're there.
I don't think this is at all beneficial to users who already have the expansions.(0)

A great way to celebrate the 11th anni for existing Abyssea users would be to give us a 4th lunar abyssite to purchase. Just sayin', while they are messing around with Abyssea stuffs to allow people to play it for free.

It is a nice promotion though, but the game's population isn't as hale for it to be effective. =/

06-13-2013 07:57 AM #6How many times have they practically given these add-on's away in compilations the last 2 years? Just how many players don't have the add-ons at this point in time (that is, actively played characters...not things like gardening mules)?
Beginning to wonder if anyone over there really knows wth they are doing anymore. Take a close look at the new trailer and benchmark tool for FFXIV. Looking more and more like FFXI-2 (a la FFX > FFX-2)....they might as well give us a CoP style fight where our character dies in this realm and is reborn with some special gear/traits or something in FFXIV ARR with our same name and such. Was really hoping to be blown away with ARR....but it's just too damn familiar looking now. At least there is the teaser for FFXV (not a typo, that is actually FF15, based on the vs FFXIII project).(0)Last edited by RAIST; 06-13-2013 at 08:02 AM.

Better yet, let us use three atma anywhere outside. X3

06-13-2013 12:26 PM #9Maybe in the sense that ARR is the same as 14's initial launch perhaps--but it appears to have changed from it's initial design somewhat. It's not even going to be a PS3 release now, but PS4/XB-One only. Core concepts are there, but they even stated they've expanded development and it's evolved to take advantage of the next gen systems, improving gameplay elements and such. For starters, they ditched Crystal Tools and moved to DX11, revamping the interface a bit. Looks like they may have introduced some extra gameplay elements too (looks like there are now stealth stances?), hard to say without more gameplay footage to compare.

Sounds like they've shifted from what may have been intended as a standalone release to starting a new series as well?

It looks like it means "people who don't already have this stuff get 9 atma and a lunar abyssite unlocked without haivng to do anything."
