Thread: 2.5 - Before the Fall

Im surprised 2.5 is coming out Jan 20th. Thought for sure it would be something like first week of february.

There will be much to do in patch 2.5, and before we bombard you with more in part 2, we’ll be offering players a change of pace with patch 2.51, which focuses on the introduction of the Gold Saucer. It bears mentioning, however, that the establishment is known as the Manderville Gold Saucer in Eorzea. You’ll have to check it out for yourself to figure out where this moniker came from. Including chocobo racing, chocobo breeding, and the return of the FF card game Triple Triad, you can look forward to a fun and relaxing time in the Gold Saucer.

Chocobo Breeding with Golden Saucer confirmed ^^
Maybe connected with Racing like in VII, where you start with an average Chocobo and have to breed faster Chocobos with it.

For the VIIth legion it was more because they ignored every order from Garlemald after Nael death to fulfill Nael last order.

So Odin, Gilgamesh AND another trial? Damn. Are we sure we don't have to pay for 2.5?

As for the trial itself, might be an Ascian like Lahabrea again or Elidibus

Who is Neus?

Anyroad I think it is pretty amazing that even now so close to 3.0 we are dealing with the consequences of what Nael did in 1.0. Ripping of Sephiroth aside, he sure knew how to be a villain.
