You could see the "sword" on the first trailer too, I wanted to post something about it but I was too lazy to go through all the threads and see if someone already pointed it out <.< so I gave up...

This new trailer is... nice >.>
We get to see some shining crystals on a dark background with a classic FF music, very FF'ish, and we get a new voice which is kind of better than the one on the 1st trailer but still... personally I don't like it >.<

I think this trailer is more suited to be shown to people who have not played FFXIV yet or didn't play in a long time... You get the feeling that a lot is, and will be, going on and the fast paced scenes don't waste too much time on things a new player won't understand or care about.
The 1st trailer was more oriented toward us, the current players... you'd get excited seeing characters and places and things you know and start speculating about what's going to happen... something new players don't really care about.
