11/11 event thoughts?

Was chatting about it last night so was curious what everyone else thought about it too.
Do you think that there will be an event for this date?
11th November, the day the old world ended.

Though for new players it means nothing, it's still an anniversary for old players and even the dev team themselves.

Even if it's just a few npcs praying for their memories, and those they lost to the calamity. After all, pretty sure a lot of NPC's ended up a little bit dead while out on the battle field.
Though there is "that" in the game. (no spoilers!)

Just a little excited for the day itself! (Even if nothing happens)
Maybe even another live letter, with the team in suits again! So handsome :o

Perhaps like a quest or the likes to place a flower at a certain point in Mor Dhona would be nice too.

And even if there is no official event, the players could hold their own, for lols OR rp's sake.

-Yes, yes I know it's not launched yet, but still :) no harm in thinking about things and discussing.

There might be a remembrance/memorial festival in each of the city-states; something minor but still something. I mean...the main storyline has the player go to each city-state, and talk with the leaders about setting one up afterall.

That would be pretty cool, in my opinion.

That's a good thought. I guess we can only hope. Seems like a prime opportunity though...

A memorial festival would be awesome!

11/11 was the end of the era? lol I must not have known that before... I gave my character the same birthday as me... 11/11 lol That must've been a crappy birthday lol

I wonder if they'll send me a present ^_^

as a non legacy but being friends with many who are i wonder if they will do something

I would really like that day to be an event! But even if it isn't, we should all make plans to celebrate the day anyway! ^^ Yay!~

Sorry to sidetrack the thread, but what is on your character's head, and where can I get one? :D

That, my friend, is the Alchemist's Monocle dyed Honey Yellow I think.

I'm assuming that these forums connect our character's gear the last time we logged out... if that's true I will forever be logging out with my Dated Weathered Spectacles (Black). They made them look awesome in 2.0 and they'll forever be my head piece for my casual afk set.

Maybe this is a reward

Meteor Survivor Ring
Increased Spiritbond Gain +3
Requires All Classes
Requires Lv. 34 Item Lv. 36

I would think most people would like to forget about the old terrible version of the game. Then again celebrating it getting blown up isn't the worst thing I guess

I like the idea of that. It would be nice if they made like a memorial garden or something, provided a small quest chain where you perhaps have to honor the fallen and such...maybe give a small reward like a piece of vanity gear or even consumable fireworks or something of the sort just to remember the event and celebrate. It would be a nice gesture. I never played 1.0 but I do like the idea behind the lore it would bring to the game. That truly would make it feel like a world in its own right.

As long as everyone gets to participate in all of the celebrations, then I have 0 problems with it!

There will be a Fate where Adele appears and sings Skyfall.

Is it wrong that I read that as "Adel" rather than "Adele"? xD

OT: I think this would be a great idea! As someone who has only known ARR, I think an event like this would help new players understand, and gain a sort of respect for, the importance of Dalamud's fall for both the game's world, and the game itself.

The original game may have been bad for most, but there's no doubt that its ending was heart felt as even the manliest of players cried during that final CS.
I think it'd bring old and new players to a better understanding though, and the new people could experience a portion of the feels one way or another.

Bringing everyone together to respect the fallen would be nice, and the ideas others are sharing in the thread are so cool too!
Though it's nerdy it'll always be a day I randomly set off fireworks and dance in Mor Dhona now :)

It's already in the game. You travel to the other Grand Companies asking the leaders if they support some memorial for the people that were lost that day. Of course, that was a story event. I'd like to celebrate it though for real. "Meteor(Dalamud)fall Day".
