Thread: Nation change in 2.0?

Yoshida: The current player won’t be able to choose a new starting city. The reason being that current players are playing the story now and the continuation of that story with Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn – So we can’t make any changes there.

Bonerz. They shouldn't use the word can't when they mean won't.


Does it matter if I pick a Grand Company that isn't my home nation? Does your starting city affect anything at all besides the story quests?

No. No.

Wow, so they took that back huh? Yep, totally makes sense that 1/3'd the mi'qote population grow a pair but hey your still stuck to the original nation.... right. Not that I was going to change <3 me some limsa.

I'm pretty sure name change was in there as something you can change. I think he used a roegadyn example

I want the GC's to unite more and form one grand military organization, so I can get the gear from all three GC's or even better gear for the high ranking officers (give new ranks please, I need an excuse to do chocobo escort to get my chocobo mask!) that offers good stuff for all classes/jobs.

I will only change maybe my hair color and/or maybe the shape, but no race change or big features changes.

Unless they release Viera as a new race in ARR, then my heart will be divided.

I only want the Malestorm coat and sword... they look so cool...
