Ultimecia's Castle as a Mid-Level Raid

[Keyln]

*A* floating continent, not *the* Floating Continent from FFVI. There's also one in FFIII, and Sky in XI was essentially this as well. There is no evidence that this area will be directly lifted from VI or any other game.

Go to around the 8:20 mark. They specifically mention that it's something all Final Fantasy fans recognize, and they called it the "Floating Continent". It definitely doesn't look like the continent from III, and I doubt it's the "sky" from XI. That leaves the Floating Continent from VI. The only question is what role will it play. Will it be an endgame explorable area ala sea and sky from XI, or will it be an mid level raid ala Crystal Tower?

Plus the music at the end of the new FF14 Heavensward trailer the music is quite similar to the beginning of the music of the Floating Continent from FF6 too.

How about something similar to Arcane Labyrinth in FF2?

I'd rather take his Destroy Tome. Ooo the power.

It looks nothing like the Floating Continent in VI either.

Interesting.

It still doesn't change the fact that it looks nothing like the place though:



Maybe nostalgic fights will occur there (akin to the Demon Wall), but it still doesn't strike me as being a raid completely lifted from FFVI like the Crystal Tower was from III. Guess we'll just have to see! I'm not so proud that I won't eat crow if I'm wrong =)
