What is Ishgard going to be like?

[Reneo]

Well I read somewhere that Ishgard itself will be a seperation between the poor and the rich. Q.Q I'll see where I can get a hold of the info somewhere

All of the new job videos look like they are in Coerthas.

The Machinist one has an aetheryte in the background. Which makes me wonder whether "the foundation" as shown before is actually the lower part of Ishgard turned battlefield. (Of course, it could be a zone aetheryte somewhere else. I'm sure the Ishgardians have more Vigils in those mountains, at least one known one in the western highlands)

Oh yes, they did indeed have more vigils, two more in fact with one being north-east of Steel Vigil which was called "Dawn Vigil and another North-west of Stone Vigil named Dusk Vigil.

It'll be very interesting to see how the Ishgardians react to the Au Ra. I plan on making one, and will love every second of traipsing around their city while they glare at me *insert evil laugh*

Looks like 15th/16th century France with the color sucked out of it.

The links don't work because the site doesn't allow hotlinking, but I assume you meant to link the pictures from this here post.

The 'foundation' level (where the common people apparently are restricted to) looks more like San d'Oria MkII to me - right down to lots of drab grey stone and stuck-up elves.

The rest of the city looks more like Lindblum crossed with Jeuno though. But I guess we'll find out for ourselves soon enough.

It also seems like the Amphitheatre where Shiva is fought may be a remnant of a widely traveled attraction.

The area where Skara is fought could be much the same.

I'm not looking too forward to running about Ishagard. I didn't like being in Coerthas very much. I hated the change in music and the people were insufferable to deal with. I imagine Ishgarde will be all that pretentious zealotry x100. I am curious how the story will handle the Au Ra players running about, though. The Ishgardians throw people off of cliffs because they MIGHT be involved with dragons. How will they react to a race with dragon-like features?

If the options where there I would join the Dravanians rather than the Ishgardians XD

Svara?
That was the Steel Vigil. With emphasis on was.

Wait how does anyone hate the Coerthas background music???

Anyway since I keep getting northern Skyrim vibes from snowy Coerthas I just like to think that Ishgard will be a lot like a more technology-advanced Whindhelm. That's probably just me though.
