    If we get the sea expansion with 4.0 I hope it expands south and west, so we get to visit the South Seas Islands and Doma.

    Though I think Ala Mhigo would fit better for 4.0, plus if the sea expansion gets moved to 5.0 we can hope by then PS3 support could be gone and we could have nice things.

    If we have to wait that long for sea travel hopefully they at least add swimming before then.

    I was wanting full sea travel with your own ships and everything, even naval ship combat with NPC pirate factions, imagine a naval combat against a large group of Pirate vessels and multiple player run ships would need to be brought in to fight them.
    If you have played arche age you would know more about what i have in mind with sea travel.

    I feel if FF added swimming and boats and sea travel it would give the game SO much more.
    Ship travel in "old FFXIV" :

    as alukah already said... this expansion is about the sky theme.. maybe in a future expansion then...

    Let's see. First FFXI expansion:<sky>. Second FFXI expansion: <sea>. Yeap, I see the pattern going on there.

    Has anyone played Rune factory, Tides of destiny? I could see a continent added
    thats made up of islands seperated by a far distance, with dungeons you have to find
    or difficult places to get to. (obviously without the slow traveling of RFToD) we could
    have an aether at a big central island, then need to do travel around via ship/large creature/
    FC ships/underwater tunnels etc. Would also remind me of Zelda Windwaker or Skies of
    Arcadia.

    not quite what i meant, in arche age you earn your own personal ship that you sail your self not just a NPC ship that takes you places, the AA sea was teeming with islands and stuff to find.
    it had diving and naval combat and all.

    Edit, misread some stuff.

    i think of we got a sea focused expansion, they'd have to come up with a contrivance to block the established AirShip travel in those areas. Otherwise the whole feeling of setting sail and exploring the uncharted ocean kinda falls apart when you realize that people can simply fly around up there and ignore anything happening below.

    What are we gonna do under there?For general exploration, It'd be great .. But again, the only thing under there is Sahagin stuff. An we're not exactly on friendly terms with them.
    Not quite so true if you did the Sahagin dailies. They also told us there is a big sahagin city down there where the queen lives. I'd love to see her.

    I just can't see an expansion being done where we get friendly with a Beastman Tribe.
    The Daily Quests are pretty cool as a side thing. Something that is happening within the world, but an event that does not apply to the 'commonfolk / inhabitants' of Eorzea. The one they trust is the one adventurer with whom they worked directly with.

    If we did get an expansion based at sea, i doubt very much that an underwater aspect would get any kind of real focus. Maybe the initial MS plotline is Limsa Lominsa going all out and obliterating the hostile Sahagins, then using the now free oceans to expand could work.
    There is a lot of space within the world for all sorts of lands to come about. I'm not opposed to taking to the oceans to find them, i just don't expect much in the way of content ON that ocean. Theres not really much they COULD do with the ocean, outside of Pirates and Naval Combat involving said pirates. But it'd suck if we all we got out of a whole expansion was a gimmicky Naval Combat system that is toyed with once and then left alone by the players because all the real content is based on land.

    I think SE is hoping that the ps3 players eventually start transitioning to the ps4 sometime in the future. Some ps4 price cuts down the line should aid in that. I'd love to see what the devs could do without having to consider the limitations of ps3.
