So, I am going to assume the Xbox version is why 7.0 is being pushed to Summer because it feels like the gap between 6.5 and 7.0 is going to be way longer than normal cycles. What is the plan? Drag out 6.5's MSQ by two quests at a time? 6.5, 6.55, 6.56?
If 6.5 launches in September/October and Dawntrail doesn't come until June/July...the drought is going to be pretty extended.

I wouldn't pin it on the Xbox launch, honestly. More likely the graphical updates more than anything based on how thinly they're spreading that update.

Dont worry they'll give you about 2 days worth of content with 6.5, surely that will last a year right ?

Depends when 6.5/6.55 release like if 6.55 is late jan or even feb it wont be as long but if its sooner then yeah its going to be a pretty big gap but we don't know everything coming in 6.5 yet but expect the norm I guess. Good think I have blue protocol, 7 remake part 2 and yakuza likely to contend with that time and my 3 weeks away on hols to the US. I am going to be fiiiiiine...i hope.

I assume the long wait is cause they just don't wanna do another Autumn/Winter release. This I assume was just a necessary step to get back on track for Summer releases with 8.0 actually being on track again for two years after. But god yeah, that gap between September and at EARLIEST June is, damn.

Someone already claiming the 6.55 patch as a real patch. It is just the stuff they should have released with the 6.5 patch anyways. I also don't see 6.5 launching till december. Makes more sense we are in a down cycle and you would want a holiday bump.
June is also worst case release date. In 18 months we will have had three patches. My math says that is 6 months. And if they use the backend of summer could even be longer. -

Lord forgive me but I really want some kind of catastrophic event so auto demo can be halted again a so I can unsub for a few months. That or devs can grow a heart. Whichever one.

Content draught between the 2 will be long aye, but it gives me time to level me jobs, quests and anything else and if not in the mood, have alot of other games I can play in the meantime.

07-29-2023, 02:16 PMPercibelTherenWhat positive exactly? That we are gonna have to wait a year only to get more of the same? Give me a break.Quote:

Who knows, maybe Squeenix is gonna surprise us with some 6.6 6.7 and 6.8 story patches that actually bridge the current story arc into the expac :D
Wait.. nvm that reeks of positivity. No place for it on this forum. Doomed! We're doomed! -
07-29-2023, 03:44 PMDamianFataleThat actually wouldn't be a bad idea. September/Octoberish could be the next next big patch. January/February. ish could be 6.6. April/May/ish could be 6.7.Quote:

I think these part 1s and 2s could be the thing that pads out before then. As well as the FFXIV events like the Fall Guys content.
Would be cool if they added a new Island Sanctuary update (housing?), and other big side content things people have asked for while we wait for so long. Hell, even a new mail moogle quest series would be an adorable way to bridge things over. Things that are underlooked would be a cool way to give us something to do while we wait. -
