    I know this is just me being a little kid inside, but I hope that they don't go "Soul of the King" route a la T13, and instead make it "Reign of the King" instead. Imagine a fight that takes place throughout the Hinterlands, a giant Alexander attempting to destroy the stuff you're standing on as you go (with actual destruction causing a wipe) and making safe places hard to find as you deactivate him from the outside after attempts to do so from the inside proved fruitless due to the time bubble.

    I also would hope they give us a proper fight with the actual manifestation of the primal rather than just its Prime. As epic as T13 was I was admittedly a little disappointed that we didn't get to face off against Bahamut's half-regenerated form. Having said that though these are gods way beyond our level and it would take a rather contrived plot device to allow us to fight them head on I feel.

    The biggest hope I have is that the battle mechanics involve time travel. After the fight against Nabriales we know the devs have the tools to play with time in a fight so I'd love to see some creative use of that. Something akin to the Cerberus fight where half the team goes back in time to change something so the other half can continue might be pretty neat as well. So much potential for the final tier!

    I was honestly thinking of this as well...though given the surprise that M8S apparently through at people maybe M12S will do it for us!

    They could just refer it to Babel in some way. They could also call it Alexander-Maria or Alexander-Futura after Metropolis. But that may be mostly of how I read some scenes as being a little Big-O-ish and the look/function of the chair that goblin was strapped to when they assembled the codex. Almost like that chair is the brain of the system while the terminal is the control unit.
