    2.3 Main Story Discussion [ Spoilers!]

    Ya if you didn't notice the Spoilers on title then shame on you.






    Now back to the topic:

    So what was your reaction to the 2.3 storyline?

    The moment I saw the ending of 2.3 story the first thing that appeared in my head was.....
    that some serious stuff is about to go down in Ishgard in 2.4 now that we know the Ascians are controlling Ishgard from behind the scenes.

    It's quite obvious to me that they may try to make a move on Revenant's Toll or Gridania, starting a full blown war. And I think we all know that Lady those heretics were worshipping is Shiva, it's blatantly obvious at this point.

    Well I had a feeling from 2.0's ending that The Ascians had to be some where with a nice dungeon/cellar. Then in 2.2-2.3 story we saw more of it and made me think they were hiding in Ishgard. Since it was such a well upkept dungeon with grey bricks. I also kind of always thought Ishgard had an ominous visage and feel to it, especially with the rude gate guards. But i do want to know what is to come! That was a better ending imo then the revolution one! Btw gives more credance to the prerelease interview with Yoshi-p saying that Ishgard will be a huge event (battlefield) where more than 40 characters need to be loaded. So I expect we will be storming Ishgard in some large scale (hopefully open world) besieged like content attempting to reclaim Ishgard.

    Patch 2.4 + Coil 3, presume to be the last major patch before going into expansion 3.0:

    - Ascians behind everything
    - Main scenario ending you will fight Shiva, Ishgard Archbishop (Barthandelus, anyone? LOL) and the Ascian boss
    - Coil 3 will probably feature Louisoix and Bahamut at the last 2 turns.

    I think I remember reading the ascian story gets wrapped up in 3.0, along with a bit of the empire. But ya will be a lot of fun.
    Edit: I think 2.0 will wrap with either Omega or Zodiark doing something to the world and we failing to prevent an event, a first for our 2.0 story, i thought that after Y'shtola was all "you always succeed at everything you do" paraphrased. So with that statement I have a feeling we will fail and the Ascians win at this point leading into 3.0 leaving us licking our wounds and figuring out what to do. I think it will have something to do with this plan by the scions failing utterly to stop the ascians and the world becomes a ffvi "world of ruin" for 3.0

    I've got the strongest feeling that we're gonna get betrayed, wrapped up with the Refugee revolt, and our only choice is to lay low ala go to another continent. Granted I can't wait for 2.4 now with Shiva and Ishgard, but iono. I don't trust the Crystal Braves...

    Well I trust some of the members of the Crystal Braves. However, 2.3 story already show signs of doubt from the other City-state leaders due to the Scion's current rise to power through 2.X storyline so it already foreshadowing these kind of events.

    However, I fear the betrayal will be one of the city-states or all three of them.

    If so, I put my money on it being Uldah. Probably because the Sultaness being stuck in a position where she either turns her back on us, or she ends up dealing with a massive rebellion on her hands. A lose-lose situation.

    After that cutscene, waiting for Sultana Nanamo Ul Namo to betray the Crystal Braves.

    Why?

    Because all Lalafell are evil.

    If you also notice, after the Crystal Company formed, they are stationed in all the City-states.

    Also with the Ascians taking control of Ishgard's pope ( Teaser at the end of 2.3) It seems like (even in instanced form) may go into Ishgard to stop the pope/Ascians from doing, whatever it is they are trying to do.

    Also, the story seems to be about to hit it's climax before the end of ARR story ( which will most likely open the gates to Ishgard). So 2.4 Shiva/ third coil etc.

    2.5 Omega weapon gets Rez, Omega defeat bahamut (or even consume bahamut like Ultima did with Garuda/Titan/Ifrit.), and then we will have to fight Omega ( which I hope they make it difficult. If that is the final final battle, I want it to be epic, harder the EX, just as hard as coilish.

    2.4- September/October
    2.5- December ( they always try to give us a patch before christmas) could be January too.

    March 2015= Expansion.

    That is my prediction.
