Return to Ivalice
In the world of FFXIV, the Final Fantasy Tactics story is a well-known fairy tale known by anyone from Garlemald. Keeping the FFT story as a base, it also has an essence of FFXII. Return to Ivalice has been designed in such a way that those who do not know either of these can also enjoy it as well. Players will enter Rabanastre as the first part of their journey.

The patch art features Ramza and Delita, and was drawn by Akihiko Yoshida.

"This morning, residents of Kugane woke to find above their city an airship unlike any ever seen. Yet while of Garlean design, the vessel distinctly lacked the bleak outfitting common in the Empire’s warmachina. No, this was the Prima Vista, private stage for the Majestic Imperial Theater Company─a troupe having won acclaim across Garlemald for their timeless work, “The Zodiac Brave Story.” Which begets the question...why are they here? The answer to that question and more lies in the selfsame legend of which they sing. The legend of Ivalice."

With a little luck, we'll get to run a few of them through in the raid at least :3

If anything, because of this Viera is even more likely.

How come 8-man doesn't get famous writers and designers? Now I know the 8-man story and raid is going to be terrible again.

Well, after seeing your search info in-game I have an idea as to why you want Viera as a playable race. ;)

Most likely because they want as many people to experience it as possible and the Alliance raids are a lot more casual friendly.

They also kind of have a theme going with the 24-mans being mostly FF throwbacks.

8-man has story mode so the casual friendly doesn't really make sense... Omega is from a past FF so might as well call that a throwback as well.

Binding Coil didn't have any particularly famous writers and designers and its was widely praised by fans.
