Final Fantasy XIV Cataclysm

The only reason I'd expect another calamity is if they were re releasing the game with a complete graphical overhaul. One that would bring it into a more modern appearance. If they're not reworking it onto a new graphics engine or having a rebuild of it without all its spaghetti code, then there's little reason to blow it all up again. Especially not for adding flying to old areas.

That wouldn't need a calamity either. A calamity is only needed if you want to change the zone drastically, and a graphical overhaul changes the appearance of the zone without necessarily changing the zone itself. (Of course, even changing the zone only requires a calamity if you want to acknowledge the change in the lore. They can always do a retcon and just say the new zone has always been that way.)

Agreed.

If the payoff's good, I'd be all for seeing the rejoined Source.
