Some things I found personally entertaining:

• The 6.x series focused on "being able to play alone" and set the goal of "widening the scope". From here on, we will focus on the original MMORPG of "it's more fun if you play with multiple people!"
• It sounds like the schedule will look like 7.2 normal patch content, then 4 weeks after we'll get Cosmic Exploration, then 4 weeks or so after that we'll get Occult Crescent. (This will be ironed out tomorrow in the LL)

Please discuss. Are you personally happy, that we have to wait 2 months for new piece of content?

Timed 4 weeks to milk as much sub out of you as possible

I've already obtained max level for all of my jobs, so seeing that the intended means of leveling in Dawntrail coming so late is a bit disappointing
It would be nice if they released much sooner

Honestly, it'd be neat if the relic dropped the same time as the expansion, seeing as it's a weapon meant to grow with you along your journey
Though I don't know a good way to implement that without invalidating the other weapons unless they make it grindy to get

The interviews basically confirmed the raid at the end will be that 48 person CE type raid. They also said we'd have to travel to the CEs to increase exploration. There is knowledge/lore to collect, a lot of the rewards will take time to get so you can't just get them right away, and the jobs won't all be availabe at the start. You may find jobs don't work and you have to use a different one to achieve what you want, especially in the raids.

They also confirmed the trial is part of the MSQ which was pretty obvious anyway.

Honestly, yes. Then I can focus on one thing at a time.

Hopefully they will learn from the issues of Eureka and Bozja.
with limit info I am quite excite for Occult Crescent (mostly for those new "job" in those area), but I am worry it will end up like the two in the past and become "dead content" once the hype gone

[Heavenchild]

I am totally upset about to wait again 2 month....
This is a bottomless impudence...

Will I stay subbed? Yes. Why? I guess because I am dumb and not wanna loose stuff. :c

And that Yoshi dodged the question about chatbubbles is in my opinion insulting to the playerbase.
Can it be so difficult to officially implement such a little thing that illegally exists for many years?

[CVXIV]

Honestly, yes. Then I can focus on one thing at a time.

The upcoming occult crescent already sounds extremely grindy from the looks of it so far
Grind knowledge level, phantom job level, and I think it even mentioned weapons and armor? lol

[NaoSen]

The way they were going in live letter I thought we'd at least get Cosmic Exploration on 25th and occult crescent later, I guess BOTH later is the case.

The content sounds really good but man... 8 weeks for the full patch after almost a year of nothing...?

They need to get an extra 2 months of sub money. Maybe people will even talk themselves into buying things from the cash shop in that time.
