Which makes you think that possibly they are already making another mmo, you have to remember that the development of a game goes from 6 to 10 years nowadays, I would not be surprised if in 10 years they say "we have been developing this mmo since 2025".

Yoshida said in an interview back in the StB days that he wanted to make a whole new mmo that was pure high fantasy and was more it's own thing. iirc he said he would not have the same races as XI/XIV and absolutely no tech, aliens or anything of the sort and be in its very own world without crossovers, call backs and such. But who knows. After having him at the helm from 2.0-7.0 I frankly do not think he has the creativity for it.

That sounds pretty nice. I wonder what he would have come up with if SE didn't keep throwing side projects at them... Though I feel like juggling two MMOs at the same time would also be very difficult, I do not envy him at all.

This sounds nice, I definitely would like to see a wee bit of Fantasy in my Final SciFi XIV.
Ah well, what can you do. Need to be off now, I have to catch my spaceship - I'm helping a race of genetically engineered rabbits building a moon base. Afterwards I might take my air wheeler back to mega city Solution 9, watch a wrestling match in the arena, then have a drink in one of the many bars while watching a show on holo. Live long and prosper!
