Revelations from Fan Festival Around the World 2021

Reaper's ghost is a voidsent. I was hoping they'd have used an actual ghost but it still has the ghost aesthetic so cool.

Channeling a Voidsent sounds... risky... I think the Job Quests will focus on how to do that "safely"

Well this really annoyed me. Everyone was expecting a scythe for the weapon, and people guessed the job may be called Reaper. Which means those are the exact things I DID NOT want to have actually happen. Whatever everyone expects, is the opposite of what should happen. That way everyone is surprised by it. Everyone already knowing ahead of time is extremely boring.

I instantly lost interest in the entire stream due to the completely expected job reveal.

Which may require feeding it souls of the fallen...or our connection to Hades may play a role in that.

I don't think that's a bad thing at all, really. It means the playerbase guessed correctly with the clues given.

I mean, if there's one thing that irks ME is when creators tease something and then pull something completely out of the blue. It's an insult to the fans that enjoy craking the clues.


Oh, goodness, it's the Hinterlands if the Calamity hadn't happened, I'm in love. Also funny the joke about player housing. Yes, Yoshi/Koji, I wanna move there now.

Old Sharlayan confirmed to be hub city, and it looks and sounds beautiful.

That's exactly what I want though. They tease something, and its not that thing. That way no one sees it coming.

You expect too much then.

EDIT: Lyrics to the theme song were actually made by Koji Fox with feedback from Ishikawa.

Reaper looks incredible. I'm actually a lot more excited for this job than Sage and I'm a healer main.

I am rather curious as to how they'll go about justifying us using the Reaper job, because virtually every bit of lore relating to the Void has gone over how you really, really don't want to have anything to do with it; much less becoming a vessel for an entity from there (Which from established incidents results in being controlled by said entity in mild cases or irreversibly transforming into it in worse ones).
