All the themes never once mentioned "Future of FFXIV".

With that aside, let me tell ya what I think the Future of FFXIV means.

1) Expansion talk is possible (If anything though will only maybe get a name, rest will come at Fan Fest).
2) 2.4 and 2.5 talk is highly possible of being there.
3) Lots of photos to be shown.
4) Major changes that will likely occur by the time expansion hits ( or at the expansion) EX: Changes to the battle system, Harder mobs in the open world ( wishful thinking.
5) Roadmap seems possible, as if 2.5 is the last update before 3.0, That's only roughly 8 months away, now is a good time to show us what they plan to do up to the expansion.
6) Maybe a Player's Poll to gauge how we as the community are enjoying the game/if we feel changes should be made in certain areas.

It could be anything really, but one thing is for certain though, if they were to want to talk about 2.4/2.5 or strictly 2.3, they would have simply not added " Future of FFXIV".

To close, I feels there will be a lot more to see than just "what were going to get in 2.4/2.5.

What are your thoughts on what you think were going to see and what you want to see out of the "Future of FFXIV"?
