Count me out.

Trolls can't join anyways. It's going to be an exclusive religion.

I'll join, sounds like heaven, no trolls, and we can talk about Yoshi-P and how his hair looks outta FF and how his little drawn picture by the other yoshida looks awesome.

Just the fact that they're doing ANYTHING to lively up the countryside is a great thing to me. I hated doing levequests that said stuff like "the farmers in so and so region are having problems settling the land due to monsters."

What farmers!? What settled land!?

With these settlements, my brain will stop hurting(I hope).

Yep coming soon! I hope these aren't just placeholder buildings without content =P

Wow they just keep adding neat stuff to 1.18 imagine the game we'll have by 1.20. I'm glad I came back a few days ago. Best time to be an Eorzean again.

I noticed a difference in terminology in regards to beastmen.

Beastmen "settlements" will be in the 1.18 patch.

Beastmen "strongholds" will be in the 1.19 patch.


I wonder what the difference is ...

EDIT: Did the Development Team ever announce what they were planning on doing with the existing hamlets?

I'm pretty sure strongholds means it will be where the beastmen live/prepare for battle as in XI's strongholds such as davoi/castle o/beaudex(think that's the right area or w/e lol).
