My guess is that it'll be similar to the shot of the Midlander in the cinematic standing on the Moon as he looks at the Source.
I also expect the music to be more subdued and subtle this time around.
Another option is for both Zodiark and Hydaelyn to be the focus since it's the conclusion of their story arc.
it will be a empty screen with just the login
"Stop right there, criminal scum! Nobody breaks the terms of service on my watch! I'm reporting your illegal mods, now enjoy your time in gm jail."
Exactly what I was gonna say!
Admittedly, I actually wish they would let you select which theme you want. As I recall, if you click to watch the opening cinematic of a given expansion, it will show that expansion's log-in screen afterward; why not just make that kind of permanent? Even if it's just a temporary file on your system.
In any case... I'm kind of hoping we get a more dramatic interpretation of the classic "Prelude" melody. And I kind of hope it doesn't go TOO dark, but a bit more "cosmic".
Unlikely given they're not part of the logo though - like the trailer it would probably emphasise the 'airship' in the logo and the moon blocking light behind it, given EW's focus is litereally a 'new dawn'. But it's always darkest just before that dawn, so big dark moon taking up much of the frame makes sense with maybe some 'sun rays' starting to break behind it (it would also be a nice bookend to ARR and Dalamud).My guess is that it'll be similar to the shot of the Midlander in the cinematic standing on the Moon as he looks at the Source.

Also, changing the subject, congrats on reaching seven medals Theo! I was beginning to wonder if six was the limit. ^^
It's from the Shadowbringers main theme.
"Home
Flying home
Dying hope
Hold on to hope"
Thing is, aside from just being kinda jarringly loud, it also makes no real sense out of context. Just comes across as word salad.
Of the expansions that have been released so far, my favorite login screen is the one from Heavensward.
