It could mean all sorts of things, from simply "They didn't get alot of character development, so EW will be when they get a much larger focus" to "Alisae will also take up a new job alongside Alphinaud" to "Lol we'll finally get a decent updated wardrobe".
I wouldn't say 'most' people. Some people maybe, but IMO that's a big leap for people to take that line and assume it means they're getting new jobs. Especially since she already GOT her big job change going to red mage in the first place.
I know a lot of people have already predicted it but i think Sharlayan will almost assuredly be the big city and in the trailer. This is the end of the Hydalyn/Zodiark storyline and it would not feel the conclusion without going there. I also think we will get the final job reveal. I am also hoping that the rest of the clouds over Islabard are removed showing a complete map of the 3 continents, and that we at least get 2 more zones there. Also i really want them to show off more hairstyles for Viera. I heard some people suggest Nerva might be in it and going back and looking at the first trailer, it showed an airship in the capitol going down in flames as if there was a big conflict there, perhaps it was an effort by him and his forces to take down the big tower enslaving the citizens and it was shot down by a defense mechanisms. also maybe we actually see Hydalyn or Zodairk.
My predictions:
- We'll see the new job in action. Probably through Zenos.
- We'll get a glimpse of the new major city. Radz-at-Han already looks very impressive and that's only the equivalent of Eulmore, supposedly. I'm expecting Sharlayan, though an Esthar equivalent on the moon or in Ilsabard would be neat.
- Lord Nerva. If my hunch is correct, he'll play a major part in 6.0. Maybe he'll lead the survivors in Garlemald to oppose Zenos.
- A sly reveal of male viera and/or female hrothgar.
- A look at some of the other Scions fighting elsewhere in the world, probably to give us a look at another new zone.
There is no indication Alisae is getting a new job. Heck the fact that she's still RDM in the trailer makes it unlikely she'll swap in EW. Her line to me felt more like a fourth wall wink saying 'yeah we didn't get a lot of character development this expansion but our turn is coming next.' Rather than a hint of her changing jobs. And honestly red mage is a job that suits her well so I don't see a point in changing it for the sake of change.
The Fiends I could definitely see being involved, but my guess is they'll be the trial series rather than raids. Probalby going the FOur Lords route with one as a dungeon boss and the other three as the 6.2, 6.4 and 6.5 trials. Or, given that 'Endwalker' finishes its story in 6.0 and 6.1 starts a new plot, rather than being like HW/SB/SHB where X.3 was the proper end of things, maybe all four will fit into Trial slots this time around rather than a big msq trial climax in 6.3.


They said in the announcement stream in Feb she isn't changing jobs just an outfit switch IIRC.
Personally I'm a garleboo so I'm hoping we see some in the next trailer be it Maxima, Nerva, or some other Legatus/High ranking Garlean I'd be down. I'm expecting some more scions action perhaps estinen since he technically is one as of 5.5 and maybe a shot of the new city honestly there is a couple options so I'm not sure but Sharlayan is looking a bit too likely rn I'm expecting some extended cut on existing scenes aswell since that happened in ShB trailer as well


WoL and Zenos will be shown as the same job in two-sides-of-the-same-coin manner. Probably the new melee.
If we do get Sharlayan(which does feel most likely) I imagine that will be the bulk of the remaining zones. The motherland was originally made of three main islands before the Isle of Val did it's vanishing act. Given how big Val turned out to be, I won't be surprised if they can fit three zones and a city on the remaining one.I know a lot of people have already predicted it but i think Sharlayan will almost assuredly be the big city and in the trailer. This is the end of the Hydalyn/Zodiark storyline and it would not feel the conclusion without going there. I also think we will get the final job reveal. I am also hoping that the rest of the clouds over Islabard are removed showing a complete map of the 3 continents, and that we at least get 2 more zones there.

As for Ilsabard proper, the reason I don't think we'll get many zones there is that the way they've used Terncliff, Werlyt and Bozja in post ShB makes me think that for the time being they'll want to leave Ilsabard and southern Othard for that purpose. Having that massive landmass that we'll gave access to from all four sides post EW gives them a lot of freedom to dip into for areas to feature as they did in Sorrow of Werlyt and save the queen. And it still doesn't stop them from picking out a chunk of it to feature in future expansions is they don't have workable ideas for the New World or Meracydia ready to go.
That said I do hope they still remove the clouds if only to tease potential future ideas.
I will admit a huge bias in that I want lots of Sharlayan content and certainly won't be upset if we get more Ilsabard than Sharlayan but the above rambling just feels like the direction the wind is blowing to me.
Sharlayan will likely include the city itself and the island region zone, Same with Raz-a-Han and its region and Mephina being the moon zone, and of course Garlemald and its surrounding mountainous region. That leaves 2 other regions, considering the moon has already been announced I dont think thats the final zone and likely there will be another region at least in Islabard. The moon could be the final zone but twice the last zone has been a hidden reveal like Azys Lla and the Tempest. If theres not another ??? zone then likely theres going to be 2 other regions in Islabard outside Garlemald itself.
