The final hour

[Shougun]

In the final hours of erozea, Dalamud will gently kiss the planet and drunk moogles will step out to greet the bewildered citizens.

After much drink and wild celebration the moogles will tell the players ARR was a joke and 2.0 is never going to happen.

Then for some unknown reason moogles will be extinct and we will leave erozea in search of Epoch* so we can escape this hell.

*Chrono Trigger time traveling spaceship for those who forgot.

All active Player should gather in front of Uldah and /farewell at the very last Minute.

Thanks but I'll have to pass.

I'll be in front of Limsa, looking up to the sky, at the red glowing thing, mocking it's existence.

Last chance to pay respect to my fellow country men. /Storm salute

Something is going to happen after the maintenance. You can lose all the faith in SE that you want, but it's silly to think that they would so thoroughly set up a climactic event and then just do nothing.

Dalamud has been falling for months and now it is about to strike the planet's surface. The Twelve are about to be summoned in a last ditch effort to prevent Dalamud from destroying us all. The Garleans have gathered, and are about to launch a final major assault, and the Grand Companies and adventurers (us) need to hold them back to allow the summoning to happen.

That's where we are right now. I mean, you can look at it however you want, but that isn't an ending. The climax has yet to happen.

In before it's nothing more than a final cutscene you can watch at the Inn~

.... But then it turned out nothing indeed ever happened! And all loose ends were briskly tied and brushed under the carpet within the opening fmv sequence of 2.0. S'ALL I'M SAYINNN..

I've just given up entirely on maintaining high hopes for anything SE does at this point.

That's entirely possible. It falls in the realm of something happening.

But to be honest, the ~10 day time period between the final save and the servers getting shut down is telling. It's a distinct window in which a final event can happen. There's no other reason for it being there.

Yoshi stated that if the servers went back up for us after the 11th (which the poll has now shown that it will), that players who logged in would have to ignore the fact that the world would then conflict with the story.

Considering that nothing we have now conflicts with the servers coming back online as is, this confirms that something significant will change before the servers go down.

Wonder if to get the best seats in the house you can go fight Nael at the time of the meteor dropping...
