It is not a very good intro for newbies. I would at least have over-voice saying "With the destruction of old Eorza a new evil arises." when Odin? appears in the black armor. Then, when the heroes appear, say "To save Eorza from this new meance the Divines call for a new band of heros to save the day."

I'm not saying I don't like the new footage. I love it. It is amazing. It just doesn't introduce ARR very well.

Since new players stepping into Eorzea for the first time won't exactly understand the meaning behind the opening movie that we recently released, we will be preparing a slightly different version to be included as the official intro to the game.
