Dalamud Thread

[Fear]

What if dalmund was created to house some kind of evil that gets released when it crashes into the planet...

Quick! Put that caption on a young Neo picture

DONE! :O

Not that the Allagian Empire would be good guys. They could be the main bad guys and overshadow the Garlean Empire.

I can't wait to join the Allagian Empire then if that becomes the case.

I hope SE don't start reading this thread then panicking because the real answer is "yeah it's kinda just a moon that's going to slam into the earth..."

To be honest so long as the repetitive maps get burned to the ground I won't care... but it would be awesome to have a smexy plot twist :3

Edit:

I see others have thought the same thing. 1.22 and 1.23 will prove to be interesting

Reminds me of FF6...when kefka opened the sealed doors on the island and let all the worlds evil loose...ya

i dont think you see swords on dalamud.

SPOILER!!!

anyone rembers the conversation between the garlean silverarmor and red armor guys? the silverarmor guy was talking about controlling dalamud with the help of some kind of Allagian tombstones (if i remember correctly). dont this stuff on dalamud looks like crosses? maybe this things are these tombstones.

The Allagians were Christian?

Now that I think of it.. that art of Dalalmud reminds me of this:

From 'End of Evangelion'

soooo.... tangification by Uber Rei. oh joy

I suspect a giant eye will be opening out from the moon looking down at us.

so, is there a player on a server named Remina we can blame?

[Rydin]

yeaaaaaaaaaahh

I don't know why that shit was so funny to me....

My thoughs are:

Dalamud is a giant metalic control-remote weapon.

On the letter is mentioned we will see the new weapon of empire but for "see" it can mean we can clearly see what is dalamud and not a "weapon", machine, some type of mob, etz.. imperials may use.

In addittion in some old Company quest from Ul'dah (don't remember which, take care spoiler):

Cid appears whispering that Imperials are trying to use Meteor on us.

With thist said is a bit weird that Imperials are using Dalamud to crush our territory but they keep attempting to "invade" or attack us. It looks silly if they get hit too... However since Darkhold instance raid was released, on quest related to this instance and some "live events" (invasions) we are told that imperial are invading and installing some "devices" (little machines) over the zones.

What this can mean? Well guessing the point Dalamud is a fire weapon (let's say a misil so we can understand) it need to have some aiming procedure or it can fall over the Imperial region too. So we can supose those devices are nothing but target points where the Dalamud (Meteor) should hit.
Also if you check the logo, you can speculate over many theorys on what those spikes are but what if they are some "antenna"? So far we saw Imperial are heavy machine technology based so... why not?


So here it is another speculate theory! Have fun, thanks for your time.

There is a ton of speculation... but as for facts...

So I randomly was clicking around in the unending journey and happened to play the cutscene for the twin adder quest "Two Vans are Better than One" and saw this:



It's the same as we see in the sky, but it's a way closer image. Good stuff. Cropped from 1920x1080
