Thread: Suggestion: Implement 1.0's storyline

Not gonna happen, it was an exclusive to the legacy players as a thank you for sticking around.

Nice idea but I doubt it will be implemented any time soon(if they decide to do it). The devs seem to have a lot of stuff on their checklist.
Many suggest to watch on youtube, but the feeling of watching someone else's character vs watching your own is different, at least thats how I feel xD

It's still just watching someone else's character in YouTube videos, but in case anyone is interested, here's an old thread in the v1 forum archive that documents the old cutscenes in sequence.

The Legacy of Eorzea

tbh why would you want to play the 1.0 storyline when you can just watch it on youtube? You wont get any of the items that came from it and ARR plays different than 1.0 battle system. You can fight Nael in 2.2 with the second coil of Bahamut so why do you need to play 1.0 storyline?

I was thinking about the devs implementing sections of the original maps with the original camps with various pre-calamity quests and events using the echo. Would give new players new content and legacy players nostalgic vibes.

Maybe explore Mun Tuy Cellars using the echo? Revisit Coerthas in the past? Anxious flashbacks of Dalamud?

Dynamis-like instances?

You can't even compare that. The Wings of the Goddess storyline was quite annoying to do and had so many prerequisites that made it only for the die-hard fans to really go out of there way to do, not to mention with all the story content in the game already. I was heavily interested in the storyline but it was just so incredibly lame with the prerequisites each individual thing that I never did it. I beat Promathia and Aht Urghan, but I couldn't muster that storyline.

This game is easy, so none of those issues would arise.

This either says a lot about my memory or a lot about 1.0 , the only epic feeling scene I remember from 1.0 I'd the goobue fight at start of ul'dah, or the intro to limsa , don't really remember the main scenario being that interesting, admittedly I didn't get to cap so maybe I missed out on a lot

I found this neat little project.

They did a couple chapters and I wish they would do more. They were fandubbing the old storyline and I dont know what happened.
