On a scale of 1 - 10, how disappointed are you so far with Stormblood news?

[Reynhart]

There are things I really don't understand..."It's lame, we had no new race" or "What ? No info on the hairstyles ?"

Why does it matter ? Races do absolutely nothing in FFXIV...they don't matter...at all.
And hairstyles ? This is FanFest, where they reveal future content, new gameplay elements...and people are upset about hairstyles ?

Maybe they should have registered for Fashion Week instead of FanFest...

For my personal appreciation ? I'm thrilled ! I really didn't expect a whole new continent to explore, an area apparently as big as Eorzea itself. It's still way too early to make a final judgment, especially considering we'll receive lots of new infos in the next months, with the purpose of keeping us on toes while we wander around in the same content over and over.

I'm not disappointed by any of the stormblood news, but I would have liked to know more about housing transfers and how many wards will be added. I guess I would give it a 2/10. In other words, I'm very excited.

It matters to me. I hope viera will be added in the future.

What's up Trunks? How's life treating you after that Zamasu incident? Oh wait, what's that? You're NOT from the future and don't know a damn thing about how the expansion's gonna turn out? You're crying over the tip of the iceberg because you didn't get some feature you wanted? Real bummer there. Tell ya what, I got some popcorn here, and you seem to have plenty of seasoning. Can you help a sister out?

Okay, so, by your logic, all the things they've revealed showing that they're doing exactly the same thing they've done for 2.0 and 3.0 is somehow not an indication that that's exactly what they're going to be doing.

Blind fanboyism isn't a good look on anyone. At least you're funny, I guess? That's endearing.

1. New areas! (Sounds like heavensward again)

2: New primals! (Sounds like heavensward again)

3: New alternative to flying....SWIMMIMG!! (Sounds like heavensward...again)

4: Instead of 3 jobs....you get TWO!! And guess what?! They're BOTH DPS! (Sounds....worse than heavensward)

5: New housing district! (Sounds like heavensward yet again)

Where's something much more new and fresh for people who have had to endure two series of the same content? (2.x and 3.x) Why not more customization? Even just 3 options would be great. Why not something brand new for crafters and gatherers? Why not add something unique to glamour?

The only two things that impress me is inventory space increase and PS4 Pro patch. I love FFXIV, but this is also the reason I play Black Desert Online on the side.

Whoa, hold it right there. Let's not give Heavensward more credit than it deserves now, shall we?

You're right, meant to say 2.x. *whistles*

[Dalmacus]

I'm a bit disappointed as they mentioned no new races so i was thinking maybe they were going to improve character creation or increase polygons for characters but nope. Nothing.

What things that they've revealed? They've shown us two jobs, a new story setting which includes a whole other continent (legit did not see that coming), some new bosses, a travel mode, a raid theme, and??? That's only scraps, friend. They haven't even shown us the real meat of the deal which is the class changes. We have a whole 4 months to go before this thing, and they haven't even closed off the 3.0 story yet! We have PAX coming soon and I'm sure there's loads more after that.

You know not to judge a book by its cover right? If it gets here and it sucks, fine. Get your "I told you so"s and "BTFO"s in and go to WoW or cry about XI or something. But let's cross the bridge when we actually get there

By her logic, fan fests are pure hype machines and we don't have any real substantial information yet, and that is intentional. Fan fests are by design just flashy trailers, major content reveals like jobs, zones, and raids, and a chance for fans to interact with their game. We got the announcement of "major battle changes" and very little clarification about what this means, and that is intentional. There are other events and the media tour to get the concrete information, and minor things like hairstyles and glamour.

Normally, I'd be at a five. I don't want to get my hopes so high, it's impossible to make me happy. After the SAM news, I'm jumping to a 7. It really bothers me it's yet another DPS. I'd be really happy that it's 2 new regions/cities/main bases, but it's prolly gonna be another Rev Toll and Idyllshire. AFK town.
