Defenders of Eorzea trailer

[lololink]

I have to admit that I also was getting strong Kingdom Hearts and Organization XIII vibes from it. But then again, they gave me that feeling ever since the ending of the first story...

That said. Really, REALLY hyped for the upcoming patch. I need to get working on my crafting though...

Since the beginning of 2.0 Ascians looks like Organization XIII ( i think it's clear now that the devs wanted to have a reference to KH ), even more with Xemnas/Eldibus ( White ), and this place which looks like a dark version of the XIII HQ.

I can't help but think Hullbreaker theme is something from Pokemon and Ramuh boss theme is something out of the Persona series.

they changed the sex of the ruler of ishgard... I remember the guard calling as her

Just caught another glimps of a cool looking healer robe. I'm assuming this will be dropping from the three new dungeons.

Didn't they say that hunts would award alexandrite at one point? could only see gil/allied marks as the reward and I wonder if this is only lv50 content

It was said that you can buy it with the marks you earn from the hunts.

7:03 - I'm sure something very bad would happen if the meteors hit the ground (hopefully it is like "To Kill a Raven" from 1.23) ^^

Hullbreaker's theme is just Horizon's Calling from 1.0, it's in Before Meteor.

You're probably thinking of the Fury which the Ishgardians worship, which is a she. The leader of Ishgard, however, has always been referred to as male.

Er, whut? The Archbishop of Ishgard has always to my knowledge only ever been referred to (correctly), as male, so I have no idea as to how that could have been confused. Even Merlwyb stated the Archbishop as a 'he'.

And speaking of the Archbishop of the Holy See of Ishgard, did anyone else get vibes from FFXIII of Galenth Dysley watching that final scene in the trailer? I know Dysley's 'Primarch' robes were patterned after papal robes of the Roman Catholic Church so it's possibly just coincidence, but still, the reference seems possible (especially given how that scene looks decidedly ominous).

Hullbreaker's theme is just Horizon's Calling from 1.0, it's in Before Meteor.

Yup, I mentioned that in my earlier post already. It was originally the ferry theme in 1.0 (seeing as how the ferry was an actual zone you travelled on between Limsa and Vesper), so being used on an island that features a prominent shipwreck seems somewhat ironic.

Well, I know we have Eldibus, but in 2.1 he told us that Lahabrea was still breathing and still very much alive.
