Thread: New Dungeon preview : Could Omega be the final dungeon that was showed?

The title says everything.

Tell me your opinion guys. Its clear that we have 2 allagan dungeons but they aren't 1 on 2 ( Like CM - Praetorium ), also it kind looks like a base of some kind.

Considering that Omega is beneath Carteneau and that's the Floating Continent somewhere above Abalathia's Spine (the mountain range), I don't imagine the sphinx-looking machine was Omega.

There is another allag style dungeon, that one im sure is on the floating continent

Omega is buried beneath the Cartenau Flats back in Eorzea and is likely to end up under the control of Lolorito at this rate. We've been told that Omega will play a role in the expansion though so it's entirely possible he'll be reactivated and somehow end up in the Heavens with us.

That final Allagan dungeon in the preview looks like something else though. The final scene they show is of something very large imprisoned in a Dalamud-like structure, complete with blades of energy piercing whatever was being held in the centre. The sudden change in colour scheme there (from blue to red) and the new architecture (lots of spikes and those yellow glowing pods) matches the unique style of Final Coil as well so I'm not sure if that will be of any significance. That dungeon may be where Dalamud was first created. Either way the boss seems likely to be whatever is imprisoned in that sphere, and we know that isn't Omega.

Cant be so sure.

Omega, like Ultima Weapon, was a tool used by Allag to deal with primals. They built it and controlled it so I find it very unlikely that they would need to hold it in a Dalamud-like prison.

It's possible only so far as anything could happen in the expansion and we don't really know what to expect just yet, but I find it very unlikely Omega would somehow be unearthed and reactivated in Cartenau and end up imprisoned on the Floating Continent.

The one dungeon did look like it contains the remains of a ragnarok-class starship. It may have been one of the ones that was thrown from Dalamud and ended up in Dravania. Either that, or it was positioned there and never took flight, or is simply one of Allag's research ships (they were very persistent on experiments).

Something we know for sure is that on FFXIV nothing is that simple, so could it be that maybe somethone Omega moved from Cartaneau to one of the new areas of HW, on the events of MSQ.
Also lets remmeber, if you wanna fight a big massive and prowefull primal, what would you do? Create a super bigg badass machine. Given of what we saw so far ( Dalamud, Floating Continent, colosal ragnarock startships ) is not out of the question that they woulc have make a colosal machine in orther to fight Bahamut.
I'm not sure if you know the game MGS ( this is just an example ), there were lots of Metal Gears, but Arsenal Gear was different from the rest beacuse of his enormus size.

Though you gotta wonder... why did the Allagan people imprison the winged Ixali (you can see them in the tubes for the first Allag looking dungeon)? Is that dungeon taking place on their native home? Is the imprisoned being an Elder Primal to the winged Ixali?

I have questions that are going to bother me for another month.

Are we completely sure all the dungeons are in the new areas? Perhaps there are ones in the old areas too. They did say the Main Scenario would take us back to the old areas.
