The Heavensward Site Has Been Updated!

Aw man. I love the Xaela's look but hate the lore. The Raen could be (and are from what I've seen) gorgeous though, but I prefer dark, sexy gorgeous over light, beautiful gorgeous. I love their lore, though. I guess I'll have to see how they come out in the benchmark.

Either way, man that astrologian Au Ra is gorgeous. *-*

Job lore information is enough for now.

We still have 2 months before the June release anyways.

We're not beggars, we're paying customers. -snip snip snip-

I'm sorry, but comments like that reek of entitlement. You pay for the service of accessing the working game's servers. That's it, that's all. You are not entitled to any more than that. If you're so unhappy with the content planned, you certainly don't have to buy the expansion. From the sounds of things, you don't have much experience with MMOs or gaming in general.(Though I could be wrong, I doubt it) A bit of teasing without giving away the whole feature list of a product is a good thing. Discovery is part of the enjoyment. If you don't enjoy that kind if thing, I wish you all the luck finding a company that does it any other way.

Edit: Kyuven's response a few pages back is pretty much right on target.

The only detail I'd love to know right now is when is the Benchmark coming? I'm excited to play around with Au Ra in the character creator.

During the Nico Nico something or another, April 25/26th. Not a total 100% confirmation but they have said at least twice that they plan to release it during or around then.

Keyyydaaaah!!... You win. :P

I may not main ninja but I still got dem skills.

I believe the latest information is from a Famitsu interview talking about releasing it around the NicoNico Confrence, 25th-26th of this month.

One day, one day you'll not see my sneak attack trick attack coming and we will high five. xD

Awesome news!

However, I do have what probably is a dumb question. What exactly is a Benchmark? Is it something that is downloaded as a separate program on your PC, similar to a game trial download?

Yeah, it's a separate program. A benchmark is for testing a snippet of the game to see how well it runs on your system. The benchmark is to test DX11, which will release with Heavensward.

Oh Oh! And you can use the benchmark as a character creator with Au Ra as a possible race selection - with some customization limitations of course (not all options, likely).
