Getting some FFVIII bosses would be exciting enough. However, what I would look forward to the most is the music. I cannot fathom how amazing Soken's take on Force Your Way would be. The thought of it is mouth-watering enough.
If Eden is a FFVIII throwback, I'm hyped.

VIII is and has always been my favourite in the series.
I am very much looking forward to seeing more substantive representations of it in XIV
In before minute long ATE (Boost) during Eden XD... -

That's what I thought after seeing the sprout, the boss is not the plant but the source of the light shining on it!...
Eden could be a really great boss, I've never actually seen it but the sprites in FFVIII, it would seem to be some kind of massive space ship or something, from the summoning sequence which I could never really understand!... -

Also, we're not fighting Eden, we're using the powerof Eden, so I'm gessing it's not something holy-themed, but more natural, maybe tied to the Elementals. -

I really rather have something original.
Throwbacks and Nostalgia is nice and all but for every 8man Raid we have no original final bosses.
ARR was Bahamut
HW was Alexander
SB was Omega along with Kefka and Exdeath. -

Idk, mate. Probably expecting too much from a game/franchise built on throwbacks.
-
04-13-2019, 10:38 PMLilsephYeah but both Bahamut and Alexander ARE part of the Final Fantasy universe as a whole. Omega appeared in many titles as well, but it was the most obvious fanservice (Which I'm okay with). The originality comes from how they adapt this nostalgic content to XIV's lore. Also, realistically, it's a Final Fantasy game. Many of us have played many of these titles and we love to see past FF characters/places/bosses re-imagined here.Quote:

I think with the confirmed presence of FFIX via Vamo' all Flamenco and possibly Mt. Gulg, I hope we will have one tier raid from FFIX.
One other from FF VIII obviously (and maybe FF XIII). -

Mhm. I can hardly wait to see where they go with it. The picture they released resonates 8 to me. We will have to wait and see though. My fingers are crossed.

Some of the music in ShB is already reminding me of FF8 music, like the theme for the fancy part of Eulmore. I'm really hopeful that it's based around the GF Eden, considering the visual we have so far reminds me a ton of the garden from FF8.
My biggest hope is that we'll get some of my favorite FF8 boss fights this time around, with remixes to match the awesomeness. -
04-14-2019, 01:43 AMAirgetWell, our world doesn't have anything like "Gardens" in them but the "Allagan's" of the otherworld could be the Gardens.Quote:

I believe the Rokans were also in V? Featured as the floating ruins of an ancient hi-tech civilisation. Although FFXIVs Rokans are more magic based, like Mhach/Amdapor, they could have some floating ruin out there drifting on the threshold of the blinding light, which could well draw some parallels with an ancient Centran Garden of FFVIII. -
