So no crystal tower in 2.1?

[Beetle]

From what the screenshots/video says its the "labyrinth of ancients" thats coming. Which was dungeon before crystal tower in FF3. From the last shot of the crystal tower video where you see the last boss, you can see the crystal tower in the background.

So were not really getting the crystal tower just throwing that out there.

So from what the video shows is were getting this Square wall Dungeon that goes around the crystal tower.



"labyrinth of ancients" hosted number of enemies that were included in FF14. One being King Behemoth.

What you didnt expect them to release the entire thing right away did you? That is if your assumption is even correct, which I doubt.

They been saying they be giving us the crystal tower this patch but its kinda a lie. Isnt really the crystal tower. Either way still have crystal tower to look forward to.

[Aureliami]

Correct.

We're not entering the Crystal Tower proper until 2.3, for now it's just a side-section of it.

We do get to fight most of the bosses that are in the Labyrinth of Ancients in the original FF3 though, at least the most iconic ones.

Their goal for CT is to keep expanding on it over the next year(years?), 2.3 will add a new section, so will 2.5, and probably 2.7 too if it comes out.

It makes sense for them to start at the beginning, and slowly expand on it linearly. It's extremely likely one update for the CT will be the Forbidden Land Eureka as well.

well its still part of the CT even if its not part of the building it self.

The Crystal Tower is the story arch, the same as the Binding Coils of Bahamut is a story arch. When you go through T1-5 you're not even in the coils of bahamut, you are in an area above bahamut, before you proceed downward to bahamut in turns 3-5 (you are still not within his coils, T5 takes place in his hand). With CT it looks like it will be the same: Expect to be facing the gatekeepers of the Crystal Tower, not actually climbing the tower yet. Expect 2.2 to actually contain the coils. Expect 2.3 to actually contain the Crystal Tower.

This is a long-term plan, as SE has stated before. This is just the beginning...

Rest In Piece, hair... At least it was a clean split...

Lore in other FF doesn't equal lore in this one. We are entering CT, you can already run to it. And there is obviously no wall around it.

Before getting to the actual Crystal Tower you have to pass the Labyrinth of Acient. Proably they just merged the two of them to make a massive dungeon that the will be expanding with each patch.

Like everyone said, it's suppose to be like this.
