Final Fantasy XIV 3.0 Heavensward

[Balipu]

Well actually as far as we know, we could be playing underground the whole time?

Most likely we are not, and heaven really is just the sky, buuut there is no harm in speculating. Especially since we have nothing else to do.

Speaking of which...If we get into Dravania, might we get to the poorly translated Sharlayan for some extra lore?

Maybe the new race is...
From FFXII Revenant Wings


With the lizard race coming before 3.0

wont think so.. there is only one race to come.. and a winged race would be very awful, too...

i would rather think its going to be this race:

I'd die for a Astrologist/Astronomer -> Time Mage job being added. They (Astrologist) do play a big part in Ishgardan lore since they look to the dragon star to predict Dragon attacks. I'm also in love with the Ishgardan(Ishgardian(?)) architecture. I'd kill for some Coerthan Housing Wards.

Ishgard is going to be a housing district as well, they talked about this a while ago

Well the sky has been referred to as the heavens and even still does today on rare occasion, so perhaps Heavensward means Skyward, which could mean we are going after something in the sky. But that is only a guess.

During the Las Vegas Fan Festival (yesterday), they had a panel where Yoshi P said there were Floating Continents / Land Masses. So, "Yes" I'd imagine we'll have 3.0's version of "Sky" from XI perhaps? (One can only hope.) I hope it's as interesting with a good system for the dungeons / spawns (i.e., not just a DF Instance Jump).

I am all down for any overhauls they want to make to the game, especially the UI look, take away that ugly grey, bleh! xP

But I am really happy they aren't afraid to make overhauls and changes to the game and aren't stuck in their own ways, to make the game better!

Yoshi-P confirmed it at Fanfest

Yoshi-P confirmed it at Fanfest

Well... more along the lines of accidentally letting it slip.

Wait, what? Like, housing as in I put down 4 million gil and can own a house in Ishgard?

You mean equipping the PLD stone to your LNC?

yah. and then instead of getting tank:ish pld skills, you get DD skills instead, like spear oath or something,

Personally, I see the class system as a pointless system, but it doesn't bother me either as it doesn't affect my gameplay. I do think however that the class system ( outside of cross skilling with other classes * That happens to be very limited as it is anyways*) doesn't really do anything for the game as it is, best to remove it so it's one less objective to do when making Jobs.

It would be a bit awkward to start as lv1 DRG, and go to LNC guild, and learn how to use a spear.
Going to LNC guild, and learning how to use a spear, then become DRG, at lv30...makes a bit more sense.

i wish they make a specialization for each job, like a lot more trait and player can choose which trait they want to use
so, that warrior and this warrior have something different if they choose not to use some trait
each job will be a bit more unique

that's how they do in many games, and there's always cookie cutter builds, that you need to use,or you're *gimp* and can't come along with the *pros*
i went 4 stats on novus, and ppl calling me gimp, with that (the joke's on them though, cause they spent millions of gil, for less than 1% increase in power)
