One thing that has not been done yet with FFXIV

[Impishwerth]

I would rather have something that is
a.) Egyptian themed
b.) Inca themed

this plz. i am an absolute sucker for that kind of aesthetic, and it's honestly the sole reason I still prefer Ul'dah over the other city-states in the game

LotRO did an entire underground expansion.

While they did some cool stuff there, I have never been so relieved in any MMO as when I stepped out the gates on the other side of Moria and finally had actual sunlit zones again.

That moment when you rather deal with red colored mobs in Lothlorien at your level 55 than spend one more minute in Moria. Ah, that was the times.


Underground zones can be fun and cool, but it's kinda hard to find balance and not make your players hate it, I think. That same Moria, first time you see it was like "whooooa", and then you run a few quests in there and wish it ended faster, so you just rush to 1st hall to never look back. It was way too big for it's own good. Tho tbh, I feel that way about a lot of big zones in general, no matter the place.

A entire zone underground, and a underground city player hub.

I hope that will be a thing with the Duskwight Elezens if they ever get a chance to shine one day.

As a Duskwight main, I would love to see Gelmorra open for more exploration outside of PotD and Toto-Rak.

I'm waiting for the futuristic ala Bladerunner / Cyberpunk 2077 city on another shard. Since we know entities like Omicrons exist, no reason to believe that technology can't just be way more advanced somewhere else. Emet said civilizations on other shards would surprise me.

That'd be a dope ass surprise.

I just wanted to visit the actual amarot, not their backyard where they kept the "eh" creations. :/

The real reason why I'm excited for the Criterion dungeons is because the first one is Sil'dah and we know that there will be more - and with how Agalia used the Ul'dah theme and ended its focus on the patron deity of Ul'dah, implying that the next two tiers will do the same for our other two Starter Cities - is that there seems to be a renewed effort from the dev team to return to under-explored Eorzean areas and history. And that the next most logical setting for the second Criterion dungeon is Gelmorra. Which also means escorting another NPC through it repeatedly and a decently lengthy side-quest.

The Tempest is by far my least favorite zone in this game, and the kobold mines most hated in ARR - but the Nu Mou caves have enough color and verticality, and Toto-Rak's revamp helped it.

An underground zone would be cool.

I'd also like a swamp-like zone. I don't think we have many like that.

That would be cool. I adore The First, but it does still feel very much like a 'reflection' of Eorzea (Which I know was the point but...) I would love to see a Shard which really is weird and unusual, be it cyberpunk, an underwater empire, Fallout-like dystopia etc.

a.) Egyptian themed
b.) Inca themed

I think we will see that in time, especially when we eventually go to the 'New World' which is said to have golden cities I think?

If only they wouldn't have nuked Garlemald off-screen.
