I certainly hope they do, if they want the new inter-city aether transports to be useful. Currently, the cities are so small you can run to most locations faster than it takes to load in using the teleport.

Why is everyone so confused about what Dalamud is? It is a giant machine built thousands of years ago by the allag civilization. This is clearly explained in a grand company quest, a quest called Alive for Maelstorm.
I still think it'd be funny if it crashed and wiped out Ishgard. All the people on forums haven been dying for the day ishgard opens its gates to us and the moment it does.... BOOM! Dalamud takes it out leaving a crater and a partially destroyed bridge/gate.
I am evil, flame away if you will. >.>
I doubt it's actually going hit the world. That would be too awesome for SE. It'll probably hovor & shoot lazers while sucking up energy.
However, if it did crash & hit the world, that would make for an awesome E3 footage. Then it shows the world 100 years later & we were all in stasis. Doubt it.
Nah, it just knocks down the bridge so we still can't get there. It will still be taunting us in the background.
Edit: watch the cinematic from Gridania storyline where it shows a glimpse of Dalamud. It shows it come nearby and shoot a bunch of smaller meteors out or something.
No worries. Shantotto will appear and blast the moon into a million pieces before it hits the planet, because she'll be damned before something, besides her, destroys any planet, regardless if it the one she resides on, is across the galaxy/universe, in another dimension...you get the idea. :)
