    "DS: The expansion is supposed to revolve about the liberation of Doma and Ala Mhigo. We saw Kugane, and it’s gorgeous, but we actually did not see Ala Mhigo yet. Will we be able to visit the city as a location in the game?

    NY: Yes, players will be able to enter the Ala Mhigo region. The reason why we weren’t able to reveal the landscapes of the Ala Mhigo area is that unfortunately we didn’t yet have the assets to show at the Las Vegas Fanfest at the required level of quality.

    Also, there are some buildings that are prominent in the main scenario. They’re key locations, and it was very difficult to shoot around them to avoid them.

    Before the release of Stormblood, we expect to create a field walkthrough trailer, as we did for the previous expansion, so you will be able to get a glimpse on how beautiful the landscape is."

    Is this what you are looking for?

    Talking about =/= showing footage

    Will Ala Mhigo be seamless? Will Ala Mhigo have places to reach through platforming? Why doesn't Ala Mhigo have its own housing plots? Why never menton it together with whatevergane?

    All signs leads me to believe that it will be just as neglected as the Raubahn plot in HW.

    If Ala Mhigo have a housing plot then it will be only for Garleans, not or adventurers.
    Or a housing plot that look like a slum.

    Lol not sure how many people would want to have a house in an area like the slums but.. it would be a cool place to have, like in 2 or 3 expansions from now you have a Midgard inspired Garlean location, and you could be in part of the very lofty fancy section, middle class normal area, or like the trash heap where you might find Tifa's bar and stuff like that.

    Would love to see a Zanarkand, Altissia, or Jeuno like city if it's possible in the lore. Although I guess ultimately I'd like to see these things as theme packs for an instanced housing area, so SE could design overworld content and then take those assets and make a smaller sandbox for players to dream in (rather than creating an entire district). .

    On Paladin I think they could make a support tank desirable, but the support skills need to be strong AND not only about healing - right now I'd consider Warrior almost a better support, maybe actually is depending on situation, because their debuff is so good (which seems a bit backwards to me in theme). If they can't do something like that then they should just make each tank have different core design mechanics but all offer very similar end results, including damage (so that'd mean drastically increasing Paladin's output). First one would could do things similar in end results but will of course be more fun to balance lol, second one will make the tanks feel a little bit more like "pick your favorite color of the same flavor of ice cream").

    I wouldn't mind it, just wanted to live in Ala Mhigo.

    Though I remember hearing that we'd have to liberate it before exploring the city so that woudn't be a problem I think.

    Sorry... I'm not trying to take a jab at you, it's just that Yoshi has already given you the clarity that you wanted :P You haven't had the footage prior because A) assets weren't done, and B) spoiler reasons, as he said.

    Don't worry about it, I'm just apprehensive.

    I hope we get some news and footage soon, been following Ala Mhigo since 2.0 so I'm really anxious to see how its story concludes.
