Need to slay Lalafell and farm some cat peltsNo OP, WAR is bad for the community as a whole peace is better. Everyone can get rich and live happly ever after.
Currently starting a Lalafell and Miqo'te modeling agency. And Lalafell or Miqo'te intrested, PST.
Because it would makes sense that three Organizations that fought for peace from a Tyrranical Empire would start fighting amongst themselves because it would be cool.
I think the Wolves den does just fine. anything more is asking to take one of the few things this game does fantastically well and utterly decimate it.
To be fair, lore-wise there is a long history of wars between the five nations (Ala Mihgo and Ishgard included) so they could always do a WoTG style expansion.
Race wars not so much, only Gridania really has a particular predominance of one race over the others, both Limsa and Ul'dah have a more even spread of races.
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it won't be happening. The end of the main scenario hasRaubahn, Kan-E-Senna and Merlwyb pledging to not only uphold the alliance, but also virtually amalgamate the three Grand Companies as together as one force - although this hasn't had any change in how the GC's function gameplay wise.
Kan-E also prophesies in the ending scene that one day in the future, Eorzea's citystates will no longer be classed as independent nations, but will be united under one banner, suggesting a centralized, federated state.
The closest to a 'GC vs GC' conflict stated as being planned for the game is 'Frontlines' which is apparently a kind of large scale combat training event. But nothing more on the subject has been mentioned lately sadly.
even if they have bring pvp to the game, don't forget the main focus of it, it's the pve and the story. then don't hope for something too much....
Its pretty much just going to be a mock GC vs GC vs GC thing called frontlines. But no outright faction wars or anything.
Maybe they'll pull a 'Wings of the Goddess' esque expansion and we'll go back in time when there was a war between nations, but I doubt they'll make it in the present day.
What ever happened to good writing?
Nowadays in MMO's it's either two/three factions fighting one another for arbitrary reasons for the sake of gameplay or everyone is holding one another's hand singing kumbaya while some "big bad" threat is knocking at the doorstep, IT'S BORING and lazy!
Character depth, ambition, nuances, political drama, factions fighting, cold wars. Warcraft of years ago (and 1-60 Cataclysm) was the only mmo where I was left wondering, "I wonder what that character has up their sleeve? I wonder what those guys are going to do about that? Wow I'm beginning to care about some of these characters." Those days are long gone from WoW however and it's no different here. The only remotely interesting place was Ishgard.
Some conflict and more interesting characters would really liven up the story. A cheap rehash of FF2, 6, and 7 isn't acceptable
There are SO MANY games where you choose a warring faction to join, most of them MMOs. This one has so much potential to become a great story based on coorperation. Let's not take a hot steaming dump on it.
