Is 2.0 a new game? a rebranding attempt? an update? an expansion? a fix? What Is It?

Why does any of this matter?

For one, "a new game" is metaphorical/rhetorical. It's not literally a new game, not even by a longshot. Even if everything was changed, it sitll has the same title, just with a subtitle tacked on.

I think the most accurate terms would be the ones SE itself has used "Redesign" or "revamp."It's not new, but it's not old either. It's not strictly a fix-up, either.

I don't think they're trying to sell it as an expansion. That wouldn't be a good way to market it. Outside of that, I'll just let the people at SE that know marketing handle it.

Everything isn't even being changed. It's getting new zones, new quests, a new ui, some battle tweaks, new graphics engine, and the rest of the stuff is staying the same except for primal fights and gc/ main story quests. What new content will actually be there at release besides crystal tower as far as we know?
