The Deep Dungeon - The Palace of the Dead!
As mentioned at PAX East this is a new type of content making its debut in FFXIV.
As you go deeper into the dungeon, the environment will look different. As you can see in the images, the weapon is glowing and that's the weapon you will be upgrading as you challenge this dungeon. There are items which can only be used inside this dungeon.
There are some items that can only be used in this content. Transforming monsters, all sorts of interesting stuff. Not something unique to the dungeon that you can take away, more things that only have effects in the dungeon. You'll also face off against bosses as well!
It can be played solo; however, it's balanced based on four players, so going in solo from the beginning will most likely get you killed if you're not prepared. There will be some challenge for going solo.
There will be duty finder matchmaking for this, too.
If you don't reach the next check point/auto save before being defeated, you'll return to the last one. The final glowing, special weapons can be taken out of the dungeon to be used in other content!
Also there will be some "special" bosses appearing on multiple floors!

New housing additions and features planned for Patch 3.3.
We'll be introducing quite a lot of additional plots and will be releasing the prices of the land on the Lodestone.
We'll also be releasing flowerpots that you can use to grow flowers. There will be new flowers that can only be grown this way as well. You'll be able to change their colors as well, but this isn't gardening so there won't be things like cross breeding by placing pots next to each other.

The raid finder will allow you to set various requirements to join. Whether you want to go to a raid as practice, or clear, you will be able to enter more specific details, such as which phase you want to practice/clear for that specific raid.

Now a few questions from Akihiro Hino, the president and CEO of the Japanese video game developer Level-5!
Hino: I really want a cross world party finder. Can you make this happen? I want to challenge Savage with people I know from other Worlds.
Yoshida: I would really like to make this happen.
Hino: Well, you're the producer...you can't just say you want to do it!
Yoshida: Alright, we'll find a way to make it happen! It will be tricky since you'd want to chat beforehand and discuss strategies, drops, and such. I think we can make it happen for Patch 3.5 based on the work that would need to be done for it. We're currently creating lobbies for cross-world Triple Triad and other Gold Saucer games to make them more accessible.

A Savage/endgame content question from Hino
Hino: I want a flow that's similar to Bahamut from the 2.x series where you enter a raid and don't know what you're fighting initially. Over time, you uncover the story as you clear it once you've overcome the challenge.
Yoshida: The problem is that if we have the highest level content for the very select few who can defeat it... We also have to invest all the story into it, which isn't ideal for such a select few either.
Hino: Since Savage is really hard, I almost want a special cutscene specifically for it as a reward. Well, how about making the equipment for Savage look completely different?
Yoshida: We'll really need to look into this carefully.

A housing-related comment from Hino.
Hino: No one comes to my house. I would really like something similar to the Animal Crossing series where if someone visits my place, they can obtain special fruits, or something like that.
Yoshida: Adding something like that would have to be balanced. If there's too much motivation to do this, people will feel they need that they must take part. If there's not enough motivation, then it could end up feeling a bit weak.
