Thread: The Mark of 1.0 [DEV Question]

Its not about a reward, its asking for more information on a feature they have said will be there for us. Is it ok that I ask for more info? Or am I not allowed to inquire about something that isnt a "grass" thread? I didn't expect any of the forum users to know anything about it beyond the small amount of info we have already received. All i know is we will have a mark (tattoo?) that we can have on our character that will only be available to 1.0 players adn we will have the option to display it or not. Looks like most of the people commenting do not want to display it, fair enough, why bother commenting on this thread then? Bored much?

I think you know the answer to that question.

Lol, I will admit I am bored too, waiting for new information and a chance to play. Work is slow right now so I find myself scrounging these forums for any nugget of new info and generally being disappointed.

That's why I'm on the forums right now. It's the week before Christmas. No one is here at work. There's nothing to do but wait for the week to be over and get paid for puttin' the time in.

I think we'll get this

on our necks like everyone except louisux has

Yep. It's my theory that Louisoix, Yda, Papalymo, Thancred, and Y'shtola (or however that's spelled). are all from the future, and they're using the power of the Echo to try and save the world from Bahamut.

What I'm kinda interested to know, though, is what the original story for 1.0 was gonna be? From what I've read in interviews, Dalamud was supposed to be something else, and it was Yoshi-P's idea to make it crash into the planet/blow up and unleash Bahamut.

Whatever we find out those markings mean, there's a good chance they were originally meant to mean something else.

I know it doesn't matter at this point, but it still makes me curious.

I hand't thought about it that way. But it makes some sence, would be really cool if it was like that

Since it was the first thing I thought of, it's probably something different than that.

I had actually heard the opposite. That Very early on, when they decided a remake was in order (i think 2 months after Yoshi-P took over) he asked if that red moon was anything important or can he destroy it and was told yes. Also at that point in 1.0's life little to no story or major plot elements had even been implemented aside form the war between Ishguard and the Garleans.

So far as I know he had eluded to the story of the crystals connection to the primals and the twelve, as well as the Garlean forces. He will be having some recent history tidbits for us 1.0 survivors to go "Hey! I was there!" but he will be going with a slightly revised version of the original story that was intended for the game. With a bit of his own twist and flare for good measure.
