It seems like they’re trying some graphical upgrades which will change the game requirements on PC. Is that person shown in the picture a new playable race or no? Also the game was announced for Xbox consoles, too - expect many people to join for the first time.

    I’m curious about these new classes. I can only imagine at least one of them is brand new (like Sage was). We’ve mined the FF depths and brought over so many classes already, and at some point we’ll start getting brand new ones more often, methinks.

        People have been speculating that shirt could mean one of two things (or maybe both, who knows)

        1. That it’s a class that will use scouting gear (sharing it with ninja).
        2. Green mage (but since a buff/debuff wouldn’t work, specially since it most likely have to be a magic dps class, it would have to be something really different, maybe a DoT class?)

        The first one is the most likely. And since this is an expansion themed around adventures on a new world, traveling through the high seas, we could be seeing a pirate/corsair themed class, but that’s just my opinion.

            That would be really cool. The good thing about this expansion is that since it’s set on the new world; who knows what types of magic have developed there, we already have “blue magic” which is a really “weird” type of magic, so “pictomancy” could be a possibility.

            And now that I think about it, “Blitzball” (ranged dps) could totally be a thing; they could mix elements of FFX’x blitzball with the Mesoamerican ball game (the mayans even called it “pitz” so the names kinda fit)
