The Seventh Umbral Age is Upon Us

[AlexiaKidd]

Personally and I hate to use this phrase but I think we are getting a cataclysm and there are going to be some huge changes coming soon to the landscape and game mechanics.

This is quite interesting its deffinatly coming thats all we know i just hope over 1.18-1.19 we see MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR content additions and changes to the game.

After 7 months waiting, it"s time ! Let's fight now =)

I'm interested to see how they will tie this all together, they are obviously going to the trouble to put a story behind it all. When we login after the update I bet we will go straight to a cutscene that will show the things changing but how would they explain them changing so rapidly. Maybe we will get ripped 10 years into the future somehow or something like that.

The whole thing is very strange, it could be anything really. Like when you very first start the game you wake up to the voice say 3 words, feel, think and hear I think can't remember them exactly but it made me think that we had been put there by our guardian or something like that and we weren't really real.

Have to give SE credit, they are building hype, huge. I'm watching for info on this like a hawk.

Check this out guys, I found this on a Japanese players lodestone blog. The start screen is completely different. I'm not on my home computer so I can't verify if it's true.

Signal for the transfer from Astral (white) to Umbral (dark) maybe?

Maybe it'll change over depending on your local time? Anyway if it's true that's one cool title screen.

Nah, that happened before ever since Open beta, no one knew exactly what triggered it.
