What are your crazy theories after Endwalker

I call him Eric b/c I can't remember/spell the second half of his name. lol If there's an h after the c, I'm fine with Erich, too. Though it looks german, then.

I can't help but wonder if maybe Emet-Selch was somehow using his creation magicks to alter his descendants to be closer to the unsundered Ancients, given that all of them were noted to be of exceptional stature and strength.

I just really, really want to know what the deal with Zenos was.

Venat said she shipped Minfilia and one other soul from the First to the Source. So mixing of souls between reflections on their own is unlikely.

I don't think Eric would be wrong.
The "Eric(h)" of Erichtonius is also pronounced "Eric", not as the CH in cheese. Same reason why we change "Michael" to "Mike".

Lol the Eric talk reminds me of my static back in Heavensward elongating Thordan's name to ThorDaniel during Thordan Extreme.

Hmm, crazy theories hmm...

The dev team writers are going to use the Sundered Ascians still left on the table, perhaps with some of the souls freed via Zodiark to have us fight an Ascian Possessed Dragon. So like, Azdaja but amped up by having conscious Ascians fused into her? Maybe this will give us a Negative version of Estinien, an antagonist with a similar power draw? And it'll kill Tiamat, maybe.

We'll get Gaia to come to the Source to come be a mainline protagonist, maybe also Ryne after Y'shtola finds out how to go get to riding Runar.

We're never going to Corvos, because Labyrinthos is said to be modelled off of it. But be prepared to hear about Corvos at least 52 more times.

Plot twist, after mentioning how beautiful and idyllic it is the 53rd time, we say F it and just actually go there for a well deserved holiday/"Beach Episode" only to find it a smoldering ruin, courtesy of an Ascian-possessed dragon.

Urianger complains that this was not what was promised in the brochure.

Can I ask you where you've read this from him? An interview?

Yoshida's comments on Endwalker development and story from today's livestream. Update on sales suspension possibly next week. New Game+ coming in 6.1.

Second comment down adds more to the OP.

I like how they have already begun to plan Derplander's next job for 7.0.

7.0 should be the double DPS new job expansion if it follows the expansion new job release pattern so we should expect two new DPS jobs.

A part of me still hope to see a Noctis/Yozora Job since we just had a sample of it from the Venat story instance boss fight. They even have the crystal weapons Armiger summon animation set up despite still being a lower amount of weapon for Venat's weapon of choice. Not to mention the LB3 animation can be considered done due to how Venat uses Legacy of the Lucii for her LB.

The only thing left for SE development team if they ever consider a Noctis/Yozora job is to consider the normal skill attacks and their animation.
