    I am very excited about all the changes, minus the look of the UI.

    I am disappointed that it seems the updates are farther apart.

    Hoping to be able to change character race / look with new races released.

    I am not a big fan of the UI, it reminds me too much of WOW, can we please have different versions of the UI look. It seems overwhelming and too much going on for my taste. I like how clean the UI is now. I would like to see a wider variety of icons for status effects instead of the same for defense effects and so forth, that would be a plus.

    Why do we have to wait soooo long for a proper mail / party / LS / search functions.

    Thank you for your dedication to making this a better game. I feel that the world will come to life with the new changes.

    If I'm reading the "client-side customizations (PC only)" correctly, they mean UI mods, which would give us an option to clean up the UI

    edit: I wonder if the catastrophe will have something to do with Atherytes, especially after seeing the blackened out notes on some of the concept art and that "unusable Atheryte" CG which looks like those "things" piercing the earth on other concept art. Maybe the Garleans will overload the atheryte veins and they blow Eorzea to pieces, and since there are big Atherytes in all major cities....

    Well...

    the catastrophe in the 7th Umbral Era will likely involve the moon Dalamud. I mean they've put a lot of lore into the moon coming down and killing us all, even going so far as to implicate the Garleans.

    -When side-quests were first introduced there was an NPC that commented on the fact that Dalamud seemed to be growing larger and of course turning red.

    -In the early GC cutscenes Cid is seen muttering about Meteor.

    -The bombard event featured large bombs which descended from the heavens upon small meteors. Pieces of these bombards were made into earrings in the shape of the twin moons in the following event which were stolen by Moon Mice.

    -I can't remember the specific quote but after completing the low rank Ifrit quest the elezen in the robe suggests that the Garleans may be behind Dalamuds impending descent to Eorzea.

    -The 7th Umbral Era storyline will likely become unavailable post 2.0 release. Which means the catastrophe involved in this era will come to a head and likely alter the entire world as we know it.

    Right. Essentially, if I'm reading what they said correctly, the 7th Umbral Era storyline is essentially the Prologue to whatever happens with 2.0. This is the history of Eorzea, something that new players will only hear about from seasoned veterans
