FFXIV Online

I went and looked up what other fanfests were like (source is on reddit 🙁, sorry).

If history repeats, we should get:

• The expansion name
• A short teaser trailer
• Basic announcements about content with no details
• Where are we going or some important people. Basic surface-level plot points. Maybe a bit of relevant lore
• Screenshots
• A few big system announcements (e.g., SB had the introduction of Eureka, an inventory expansion, and the end of PS3 support, ShB introduced Ishgardian Restoration, New Game+, World Visit)
• Yoshi-P wears a shirt that teases something about the expansion (e.g., HW had Batman = Dark Knight, SB had Scarlet Witch = Red Mage, ShB had Bugs Bunny = Viera)

We might also get some details on 6.5.

I'd like to hear about a long-term plan. I've heard things such as level 100 will be the final level cap. I've heard about potentially making 7.0 a "second start point" to make the game more accessible to future players as the story continues to grow. I want to know if they're going to continue adding 2 jobs per expansion because it seems like at this point continuing that level of growth will be too much.

I'm hoping we get some confirmation around the future of the game. It's an old game. Talking pure craziness here, maybe it makes sense for 7.0 to be FFXIV's final expansion, but they have a way to export your character into FFXVII or something like that.

I dunno! But I hope to hear more about the distant future.

What new jobs are we getting?

Just show us the female Hrothgar, dammit.

I'm hoping for a few more details regarding the lighting update and QoL changes. They said they're working on implementing features from popular 3rd-party add-ons, and I know thousands of console players would absolutely go nuts with hype if they announce that they're even considering implementing chat bubbles.

Mostly just the first expansion details. Maybe a hint at what the next job will be. Would love to see info about female Hroth, but it might be too early for that. We'll have to see!

Hoping for a rerun of SoKen's masterful rendition of Lahee (orchestrion roll when). And the Twinning meme dance.

But seriously, I'm just excited for them to vibe with the community again, whatever they have in store.

I would love to see more information or even a sneak peek of what the graphics update will look like. I remember them bringing it up as something look forward to around 7.0

I'd really like to see character creator expanded. Things like:

• separate horns from faces for au ra and add customisation options similar to the demonic flavor from the concept art
• more tail customisations for miqote
• more detailed sliders for things like facial features, instead of just the radio button options we have now
• color wheel for more diverse hair, skin, and eye colors
• butt sliders

An announcement that there will be another round of ticket sales...
