    Will Eorzea Rebuild?

    This early on in the game (technically "pre-launch" for most), and here we are going full-on Armageddon on it. A bold move says I, and symbolic: Eorzea in Ashes; Reborn.

    However, since most of the people who ever play this game will be coming in AFTER we've already moon-nuked the sh!t out of everything, do you think we'll see Eorzeans rebuild their land in the same "real-time" lore-development that we saw it demolished?

    Not back into what it was, mind you, just... re-develop. Any long-term plans in the works? As expansions come out, maybe cities rebuild a bit - open new stuff? Areas that were blocked become cleared?

    I'd like to see that, methinks.

    No. The exact opposite of what you want will happen. I have no proof, but trust me, that's how it will be.

    Ul'dah will be reborn. Now every NPC, shop and Guild will be in the magical corridor where the Market Wards are now.

    I don't think it will be an all-out armageddon. I think the world outside the cities will be terraformed while the cities themselves will be opened up and reorganized/redesigned. If civilization was destroyed the Grand Companies probably wouldn't still be around nor would Limsa build a gigantic colosseum.

    I'm gonna go ahead and say think New Vegas. The area around it is pretty much laid waste to, but Vegas itself stood up pretty well. Granted, there will most likely be a war going on between the Garleans and the Eorzeans, but it's something to consider.

    I think it would be something like this:

    The big catastrophe is happen -> End of FF XIV-1 -> FF XIV-2 start -> 10 years later ....

    It probably will be like that lol. SE has a nice habit of placing games "X years since massive calamity"

    Although I think if the world is being rebuilt then 2.0 would be the perfect opportunity to add quests where crafters can help rebuild things =D. I personally hope they don't time lapse through it because I really enjoyed WotG because of the whole sense of danger accompanied with the Crystal War. I think it would be fun that if the cities are partially destroyed and from the catastrophe that low level players are advised to stay in doors at night because wolves and ghosts wander into the streets. Would really add a lot of dynamic to the game and make everything feel less "safe"

    We weren't ready to become the heroes of echo so the Twelve sealed our souls for seven years.

    It all has to do with the aether and the primals I think. Eorzea being drained of it aether will see gigantic catastrophes happens that will reshape the land and the primals will also destroy many things. Maybe?

    LOL cash shop! SE's way to tell their player how they appreciate them... pull the carrot and empty your pockets $$$
    And to those who support it: you are kicking yourselves. -- We just need to sit back and laugh at people with cash shop items.

    I hope they have a big cutscene where the world gets destroyed and reshaped.
