The Last Word – A Tempest of Testimonies

[Vackashken]

I love this. Tying game lore into current events and player activity. This is one way I define immersion.

Makes me want to start using my blog. >.<

Makes me want to use my blog for the first time.

Enjoy the news form Lodestone.

I guess this news is for people who don't actually play the game. It's not like there was anything new in there for active players.

isn't even a news, it's just lore.The one people hate sadly .-.
Btw i like it, and using blogs as a reference it's a nice idea. Looking for more !

I shall stay my quill, that the implications of the above findings might be given due time to sink in.

I interpreted this line as meaning said "cataclysm" is not going to happen for quite some time. Probably not until the end of the year....maybe 1 year mark.

Even then I don't foresee the world changing a whole lot at first. I could be wrong, and I want to, but sadly my expections just keep getting lowered.

Would be nice if this was actually going to build up to the 1 year mark, ultimately ending in some map redesigns that we know they've been working on (although I have no idea how long this takes and the scale theyre doing it on, so it might be unrealistic to suggest it's coming that soon).

Would be pretty sweet to see La noscea go from a boring-ass field zone to a much more dangerous place to be (at least the further you go in. Would be pretty cool to see garlean ships floating overhead on occasion, like in that story mission.

Giant flying cuttlefish of doom.

Edit: It's there around the 4:55 mark if anyone wants to see what they look like (spoilerz) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrwFV_xT_Y8 Basically FF-style reapers.

I liked the passage, but when read to friends they haven't read the amount of 17h,18th and 19th century books that I have and don't know the english which was used, and therefore feel left out. I don't know if I sympathize with them at all actually, but maybe SE should come up with a dumbed down summary for some TL;DR people.

I scanned thought, since i'm at work. I'm not into the role playing thingy abit too nerdy for me. But at least its something from SE.

Lawl, it's not rocket science. Just flavoured english, you don't have to read shakespear to understand what's going on.

Agreed, suggested an in-game news stand to access this kind of stuff with an NPC to spawn and shout for a while when something new came out, would be nice to see something like that in-game.
