So, we've all seen the FFXIV cycle with content and how its distributed between expansions, and here was a thought, something that FFXI did in between their patches, updating story content etc.

Why not have small expansions or add-on scenarios for every (.5) of an update cycle that explore different regions and maybe attach a Job to its lore, that are slightly fleshier than the update cycle:
  • Outside the Final Fantasy XIV Story.
  • Perhaps make it a Mini-Expansion worth 9.99-19.99 that adds content:
  • new smaller region area
  • expand on a side character's story
  • or a beast-tribe local that expands on their lore

Then maybe add a Job in there that relates to the area being explored?

This could potentially add more revenue with could expand their FFXIV team to make even more content.

It was just a thought; not sure how realistic it could be seeing the age of FFXIV, and perhaps the future in sight is just a completely new game. But I enjoy FFXIV and as I played so long through FFXI, I would love to see them flesh out more areas and add more jobs.
