    So, Sigmascape is going to be FFVI flavored, with the last fight against everyone's least favorite clown.

    No word on train suplexing.

    Initial guesses seem to be Phantom Train, Chadarnook, Guardian, and Kefka.

    Wait is Cid a chocobo baby now?

    Edit - Also the music at the start of that sounds familiar.

    That rendition of the Phantom Train theme is amazing.

    I want a full version of that to play for the whole boss fight, rather than the FFVI boss theme cover they will no doubt use for most of the raid tier.

    AH that's what it is, thank you. That was going to drive me crazy not figuring it out.

    basically every voice actor who wasn't a recent addition got replaced going from ARR to HW and it is incredibly jarring for a new player

    the original voice I miss most is merlwyb's, because she sounded like an old woman, and that made her status as what is essentially queen of the pirates that much more badass to me

    though I guess it doesn't really matter, because after the fight with leviathan, the narrative kind of forgets she exists

    That's good to hear. Especially since the original 1-50 content has a guy literally doing the "SNAKE? SNAAAAAAAAKE" thing at one point.

    I dunno, if you're going to do an MMO and need to perpetuate content for it, why not fall back on the decades worth of previous games? In a few years they'll be calling back to Final Fantasy 15 in Final Fantasy 14.

    The Final Fantasy callbacks and cleverly slotting in previous games' into FF14 is good.

    Not everyone likes the pop culture references and memes.

    I mean, the series has been doing callbacks since the Playstation era. It's nothing new.

    I like it when a series makes callbacks or references. And I even like pop culture references (and yes even meme references). It's one thing to not get those references or not care of them, but sometimes I see a hyper level of aggression about pop culture references. That's a little strange. I mean, we all live in a society, it has a lot of shit going on. Those things will crossover once in a while. And that's okay?

    So I watched a trailer that featured FFVI music and whoops now I'm resubbed to FFXIV. Is there a way to play with others across servers yet?

    So could run dungeons with people from this thread? Cause that is totally what I want. Or is it a random group only?

    you can do stuff like set up a password lock on your party finder, and then tell people through here or in a discord or what have you what the password is and when you'll be doing the party finder.

    real glad my girlfriend and I randomly opted to do the ruby princess questline while we were going through stormblood

    it gives you the only optional dungeon between 60 and 70 and the only dungeon period between 61 and 65

    and there is NOTHING that tells you going in that the questline is useful or important, it's just the regular yellow icon

    Also, the armor :rotate:, though less important after they gave it out in the event.

    the armour for that dungeon was repurposed as the swimwear everyone got for the summer last year, which could be dyed and equipped at any level
