    What exactly is the new stuff to do thats coming with 1.20? I would take a read but IM busy right now...

    I heard about the item search buy thingy but thats not something to do as much as a feature.

    Is the moogle fight in 1.20? if it is...is that ALL the new stuff to do?

    Cheer up girl because that's not the only new thing coming in 1.20! With the new achievement system coming, you'll have over 300 things to do*! A new seasonal event and maybe a few new quests and something to do with your Grand Company.






    Actual number may vary. Check with your closest Achievement NPC for details. Not liable for achievements already earned. Not responsible for achievement rewards dropped or misplaced. Will take up inventory space. No refunds. Why are you still reading this?

    Troll or not, in the time it took for you to log-in, post this & wait for responses you could have just read over the 1.20 posts on the Lodestone.

    Anyway, here's a few highlights:

    High level Chocobo Escort
    Moogle Primal Fight
    Achievements (tons of new stuff here, including rewards)

    GUI Adjustments/Additions (Search, traits etc)
    Class & Action re-balancing (relearning/testing everything again etc)


    Amongst a few other things being added, but this is pretty much it.

    Not trolling, working. Cant have a game page up and reading.

    So in the end all the new stuff to do SI just the moogle fight.
    The achievements are probably for stuff I already did...

    Maybe you should be working instead and read over the upcoming stuff when you're off work?

    The Moogle fight is the "thing to do" in 1.2

    Achievements are not something to do. Achievement systems double dip on content to give the illusion of new content but fine, if you have to be logged in, you can "do" that too, should eat mountains of time (how convenient).

    Add on some other high level quests that's clearly something new you can do, fair enough.

    Someone also mentioned seasonal content. Put that under the Achievements as something you can "do" if you couldn't log out for some reason.

    people seem to be defending achivements like its such great content...so let them just put in 1,000 achivements....that 1,000 new things to do! Its fluff that should be added all the time and barely even be mentioned. Does every Xbox and PS3 game put a bullet point on the back of the box saying ("and lots of achievments to do!") no....because its fluff, pure and simple.

    your real content 99% of people will care about....moogle fight and maybe some story bits, the chocobo thing we already have that noone cares about...otherwise dont expect much.

    Aside the fact you already make it clear you're very cynical when it comes to this game -- Your argument falls flat here:

    Achievements in 360/Steam/PS3 does absolutely nothing but basically tell you "you've done this" very rarely are you rewarded for obtaining them -- They create goals to strive for (the point of it) but they don't have to announce it because the game isn't about achievements -- In an MMO setting, achievements are content that they normally announce because it's basically like announcing "Hey we added new quests" because it's telling your players they just added something for you to do.

    do they normally make it one of only a few things your getting as content in the patch for other MMOs? Quests are story driven, you go to an NPC, head out with it in your log you can always check (and see where it is) go do it, come back and get more story bits with a reward. Achivements dont give even half of that. So if all we do is put rewards on stuff its now content?

    ok run 10 feet and (100gil) = content then right? kill 10 mobs and get a pebble....CONTENT!

    achievements are the lowest common denominator when it comes to content, its easy to make loads of it. There is a reason people thought leves sucked, this is just as pointless. I can come up with thousands of achievements and give them rewards....is that good content?
