from the snipets of information i have heard they have big plans for ishgard and these big plans are for players to take part in. they said the reason we are not getting ishgard till after 2.0 is coz. with this game engine we are restricted to less than 50 players on screen. and their plans are much bigger than that. i don't know what they are, if i had to guess i bet its got something to do with killing dragons and who knows maybe that will be the release of bahamut primal (but i'm getting ahead of myself there) my main point is do you want to be locked out of this major content, just so you get a wyvern?
