    "LIVE"

    "Out of the 4 keywords that I provided earlier in the year (FUN, LIVE, REBOOT, REBUILD), the keyword “LIVE” will have a huge impact for this event. You’ll notice many changes that will occur in the world of Eorzea. I would like you see the changes for yourself in patch 1.19 and then use your imagination for what’s to come."


    What do you think he means by this? I was thinking maybe he means the world feels more alive. It looks as though whatever he means, it is something that is in patch 1.19, any theories?

    Short answer: He means experience it for yourself.

    "LIVE" means to experience the game, to be immersed in it. He's saying that the world of Eorzea is changing, and the best way to figure out how is to get out there and live it for yourself, and then use that experience to speculate excitedly about what's coming.

    Establishing a connection between FFXIV and having FUN by LIVING vicariously though it required a full REBOOT and RUBUILD of the game's ... pretty much everything. Lots of fine tuning. We're getting there, so the best way to know it is to live it.

    I think we will witness the cataclysm first hand.

    I played a top down MMO called Nexus: Kingdom of the Winds. I remember during "live" events, GMs would role play as PC NPCs and tell the players what was going on. A PC NPC "Princess" would be captured by a PC NPC "Rogue" and players would fight thru hordes of enemies to get to the castle. Rocks would fall from the sky in another event and when the event was over, the servers would go down. When they came back up, the terrain would be changed and you can see the devastation left behind.

    Do PC NPCs sound familiar? We see it all the time in FFXIV. I hope to watch PC NPC Magiteck soldiers burn Gridania to the ground while I fight off Garlean soldiers.

    THAT is what I am hoping they mean by "live". (live as happening now, not live as in "alive")

    Depends how you're hearing the word in your head. Live as in "to live" or live as in non-scripted. If he intended it as "to live", maybe he's hinting at player housing or some kind of personal space.

    "Live" as in "it's alive" clearly means that FFXIV is on step closer to gaining full awareness. And once FFXIV has become sentient... Yoshi-P will rule the world!

    I think it means what we have already been seeing. Stories played out by roleplaying staff members. If they scale this up it would mean what we are encountering in the world today may mean we miss it tomorrow. So the world is alive. For people who will buy the game a year from now, they wont know of the false prophet as much, they wont hear alfgars cries for help. A new story will be happening, and this is what makes me want to log on every day currently. If a staff member logs on saying hes from the newspaper(recent example) I want to encounter it, or hear stories of those that did!

    I think the keywords should be : Nitwit, blubber, oddment, tweak.

    So...wait.
    Is that live as in the act of being alive and lively?
    Or is it as in a current event, the here and now?
