Today, E3 Starts :) Thread for general discussion

In that screenshot theres HP and CP... wtf is CP?

Craft Power? Even though his name is Zidane the class he's on is Carpenter, so it sounds like they have a TP like concept in mind for DoH.

Has anyone else noticed that a party member in this pic dosen't have a surname? (Just plain Lulu)

Chars without a surname are Pets, this was stated a while back.

Lulu there is a BLM not a pet...nothiing is finalized...things change...things will change...that is all.

Well so Pets can have Jobs? Because Lulu is obviously a Blackmage.

Just maybe... Lulu is a Retainer???

Originally we had envisioned a variety of content for retainers, but we held off on them and kept retainers as they are currently. In version 2.0, we are planning to expand their uses beyond just the current bazaar system, as well as raising their levels and the things they can do. However, we do not have any plans of linking the inventory slot numbers to their levels, so leveling them up will not yield a greater amount of inventory space.

Yes, maybe!

Ya, it's possible that the "guest" characters we can have will take on different roles so they are easier to setup. I mean it's already done in 14 with those companions we have in the main story, they are the class we pick and have access to all of those class abilities. So perhaps others are thinking to much into it and Lulu is actually one of the players fellowship companions from the story that they are able to use in the open field. Wait maybe that's what C stands for "Companion" lol

Or just like a personal NPC like in FFXI?

Which in FFXIV would be a Retainer, they said they have "other uses" for them in 2.0, Retainers could become Adventuring Fellows like in XI

I believe Yoshi said that there'd be an option to display your last name.

I'm surprised no one's talking about the return of "Cure 2." I thought they were done with tiered progression?

[Fear]

Theres nothing stopping them from doing tiers

Cure > Cura > Curaga
Cure II > Cura II > Curaga II etc.

But Yoshi said himself that they did away with tiered progression altogether. It's why I'm confused...
