The Sky is Blue!

But for how long?

Given the currently unused new track, and the teaser trailer that comes out, as well a the airships that are now patrolling parts of Eorza there seems to be enough evidence that the events of the trailer might possibly become an in-game event.

Do you believe they will implement some sort of large scale in game battle like they depicted in the teaser? Is it even possible given the limitations of the engine? Will it work like the attacks we had previously on the cities except larger in danger? And if so, what sort of rewards could they possibly give for the 'last days' of Eorza as we know it?

Mine's better

Mine has subject matter. :p

Large scale anything in this version is large scale lag so I don't think that will happen. They could dim the lights or change skybox hue though. It would be cool to have at least some world end effects in the game too.

LOL no its clearly only partially blue, there are multiple colored objects in it, and at night it appears black, and at other times pink, grey, green, or orange. YOU CLEARLY don't understand the complexity of the color of the sky and should never make posts so inflammatory!

That track, taken with the current goings-on in the world, as well as the sort-of knowledge we get from the trailer, is seriously seriously chilling.

I'm also thinking about how big this all is, and I want to applaud SE. They've turned a "Yeah, we basically need to start fresh" into this massive storyline. Well done.

Obviously this is the better thread :D

The picture posted with it causes people to focus on a different topic the other thread that was made here perfectly proved my point.

Your point was fallacious as it has nothing to do with the subject matter of the game.

If anything, the contrast between how he created a "The Sky is Blue" verse mine proves MY point that it is the tone and construct of a thread that matters.

He made "The sky is blue" added no context in a place that requires it, and writes 'let's see what happens'. That's easily a troll post in a General Discussion board about Final Fantasy XIV.

Here, I took that very same phrase, and made it relevant to FFXIV and the current events, and did so in a positive light.

Let's see which garners fewer insults.

You posted a picture of Dalamund and in lieu of that people automatically decided that's that this thread was about.

If you had posted a picture like this: http://xivpads.com/files/char1296014...1343687257.jpg
Titled "The sky is blue in this picture" I bet the results would have been the same as the other thread.

Just what is going on in here? The op has good ideas for maybe future 2.0 event planning but this odd forum wars situation is yet again going to make everybody just fling poo. :(

I miss XI threads where everybody just hated BLM Galkas...

This post stems from another post where I said the only reason people uses these forms is to argue, and the OP is trying to prove the opposite.

Because the resulting responce would be "... and?"

You're not making a discussion topic at that point. You are making a statement of fact- that's not is not the proper way to make a thread.

The color of the sky is an irrevant topic to FFXIV, and it is irrelvant to the point of your argument - a red herring, if you will.

The point you were trying to prove, and have lost sight of, is that 90% of the threads in this forum will disolve into arguments regardless of what the topic is or how it is made.

But look at my thread creation history a moment.

None of them have dissolved into heated flame wars. Every time someone attempted, I diffused it.
I even turned a 'yet another complaint about the lack of 2.0 info thread' into something everyone could laugh at.

Tone is everything here.

Edit:

Nvm I need to stop wasting my time and get some crafting done.
