FFXIV 2.0 + Prestory

[Maxthunder]

Some may disagree other may agree. Some if not all of the current player base remembers WOTG for FFXi. Now in that expansion you can go back to the past before the present time.
Now lets look at FFXIV 2.0 and lets look at the current FFXIV. Here is a rare opportunity that Square Enix has on there hands. Once FFXIV 2.0 is released, in stead of SE abandoning the current story they could add it in as the pre-story. Basicly those of us who have done it wouldnt have to worry about doing it again, but new players would get to experience FFXIV 2.0 in the present world and past world before meteor strikes. Now se could upgrade this pre-story to have all the current improvements that 2.0 will have.

Nah I like it how they have it now.

WE NOW are a part of history.WE get to say we've done stuff that others haven't.

Everyone should die, become part of the lore and then be reborn (with the same stats of course).

No going back. History is history.

I hope everyone who decides to start playing in 2.0 dread themselves with envy for missing out on the immaculate experience that was pre2.0 FFXIV.

Suckers!

I don't think anyone would want to play pre 2.0, the game has barely any content anyway.

How cool would it be in 2.0 if that nifty echo ability was used by new players to travel back in time to a hamlet defence battle that we - the current players - are going to experience or something else like that, maybe even being placed in a recorded situation of a RL players taking part in some form of (epic) battle, as that way, the new players are not actively taking part in the pre-story, but they can see what we went through.

Or you could use the echo on players and see the epic things they did pre-2.0 watch snipits of us killing ifrit, moogle, garuda halmlet defence, just make it look awesome and all the new players think "dammmnnn why did I have to quit after the first month.

Haha! We could totally have them fooled into thinking this game used to be good! Excellent idea! +1'd

That would be neat, being able to use the echo on other players (and ourselves) to rewatch the things they've or we've done in the past.

Especially if we could see our character standing off to the side watching themselves go through a cutscene. And then, if someone echoed us while we were echoing ourselves...
