Revelations from Keynote III (2019)

[Nalien]

I don't think we'll be locked out of Crystarium, I picture it functioning very much like Ishgard did as a focal point for the plot. Crystal Tower itself can always be locked despite that, though.

Actually, I hope Crystarium is the hub as well... No clue what role Eulmore will actually fill as a city, I mean, other than the new ERP hub...

Just a point of clarification Nalien, he didn't say we would be locked out of Crystarium but rather the Crystal Tower on the First.

Also they said Crystarium would have a marketboard so its more than likely the hub. Just have to start thinking how our retainers can cross dimensions and what the implications of a cross-shard marketboard would be.

I guess the question is if them centralizing all the hub and city aspects in Crystarium means Eulmore won't have anything, or if it'll have the normal city amenities regardless.

Could Eulmore end up being the endgame city? I don't know the details from the Fanfests all that well, but given the examples of Ishgard/Idyllshire and Kugane/Rhalgr's Reach, it seems intuitive that the Crystarium will have all the main city amenities like the market board, and Eulmore will hold all the endgame vendors. We don't have a hard pattern yet, but it seems natural to continue it, especially to ease congestion between leveling and endgame players.

Well it certainly seems like it would be the town that would be more likely to receive aesthetic upgrades through the patches at the very least (unless they relegate that all to Ishgard restoration).
