2.0 Alpha. 2.0 software.

The timeline says in-game changes. When Dalamud hits, it coincides with the servers going down, so we won't see those changes in-game.

I'm only calmly responding to your posts, Reika. No need to be offended.

It doesn't have to physcially change in the data for it to be changed by the story. Just paint a mental image of the change, like reading a book.

Its only a cutscene, nothing will happen to the world! Which why they said they will keep the servers up and it wont fit the grand finale story, because it will be intact and dalamud will still be close to hit.

And, they are keeping the servers up after the 11th because over 30% of the voting playerbase voted to keep them up. They also reminded us that anything after the 11th if you chose to log back in would be a contridiction to the story (Dalamud hitting, us being wisked into the future or whatnot).
