Thanks for the reply

But what I actually was asking for was what's changed from 1.7 to now?

To Paraphrase:

The UI and servers are still shit. (Coming in 2.0)

The graphics are still horribly unoptimized. (Coming in 2.0)

There's lots more to do.

The Grand Company questline that starts at level 30 will lead you through the story transition into 2.0.

It's easier to level up any class, even gatherers/crafters.

You can ride a chocobo.

Hurry to 50 now and grab a rare drop from one of the primal fights, because you won't ever see them again after 2.0.

Yoshi-p said in a interview you could use dungeon finder for dungeons and primal fights so it seem like the areas for the primal fights still goign to stay but they also going to be roaming around as HNM also.

Q: Will new players who start playing after 2.0 get to experience the current main scenario? Also do they get to challenge instanced raids and primal battles that are available now?

A: First of all, please be aware that the main scenario and the Seventh Umbral Era aren't really the same thing. Players who start after 2.0 should be able to experience the former.

Regarding instanced raids, they will basically remain as it is and they'll be carried over to 2.0. Now with the primal battles, some plots are connected with the Seventh Umbral Era. I say that there is a good chance their appearance may change in 2.0. Some will remain the same, some won't. So basically, the current game balance and the current reward will only be available now. Some of those items already exist.

This is all that has been said on the subject. It's entirely player speculation that the fights will be removed entirely.

Yoshida stated that Primals will be roaming come 2.0, nothing else touched on that fact, just that Odin is main roaming Primal, but ifrit and etc will be on the overworld as well.

No it just means they are using what resources they already having to take time to design something else for this terrible engine. The conditions can and will most likely change in some way come 2.0. Yes you will be able to fight ifirit come 2.0...in the open world. Nothing is guaranteed to stay in or out at this point.
