Lets use this thread to post cool screen shots we've taken. I'll start.

While I havent taken as many screen shots this time around, I do have shots of the coolest stuff Ive seen.

Ill first start with two cool group shots. I wont hesitate to admit Im only playing this game to hang out with all the old CKD crowed again. The game itself is only a minor part.

(I think kayne is trying to touch me in my bathing suit area)




This is the new Jeuno area for FFXIV. Kayne and I looked everywhere for a secret entrance, but we found nothing.


Corwin joined us soon and he found a hidden cave that lead to an invisible wall. Heres a screen shot of the NPC telling us to GTFO. His armor is awesome.


The new end game (or so we assume) and it is pretty cool. In the centre of this zone is what looks like an old city. A dragon is perched on the top. If you watch the FFXIV trailer you can see the CG cut scene where the dragon lands and crushes the city. Im assuming something happens and the dragon is killed in the process. Maybe this is Bahamut?
This is the best shot i could get. The weather effects make it really hard to see far.


Kayne also helped me get to Falcon's Nest. The only way to get to this city is to run through 7-10 high level mobs that hit for 4k ish. Lucky for me Kayne doesnt always think about what hes doing and he ran into the mobs head first. This gave me time to sneak by while the killed him. Over all the city was boring, nothing was open so i could only talk to the NPCs. They all spoke about the Wyrm coming and now all the men are dead or missing from the battle. Part of the NPC chat is in this shot too, talks about the wrym attacking airship docks.


I was very excited to see that Mistbeard Cove was unlocked this phase. Then I was let down to see that the entire cave is covered in agro mobs that hit for 2k. After a lot of failed attempts, I managed to get my way to the port city hidden in here only to find out the gates were closed.
And yes, I tried the log out trick with the doors, they do not open. This zone had a very FFXI feel. I was waiting for a Tonberry to pop out.



The last two shots are just two cool mobs.

Those are nice screencaps. Game looks beautiful (but that goes without saying really). I like the detail and texture of the clothes. That basilisk looks awesome.

Nanawa Mines with Bomb type mob and Will-o-the-Wykes

I considered doing Nayoz Ifrit as well, anyone else have a method for determining their last name? I am perplexed by what to choose, and all I can come up with is Ifrit, and my cats last name if i play miqote

If I were going for a last name, and actually using a name and not words, I'd probably choose a last name that makes the whole name symmetrical in sound. Keeps it simple, sounds good, and is spoken easily. Nayoz Fhowan for example. Or something like Cad's in which both names have the same number of syllables and sound somewhat similar, but not enough to be silly. Caduceus Ceadeus reminds me of the kid in Wayside School is Falling Down who speaks his words out of order but still gets the point across. Stay away from starting last name with a vowel if the first name ends with one.

See also completely unoriginal and Bonnie Bedelia. I still say you should all be assholes and make a guild of dorks with the last name Legend. That or name your characters after members of the Beach Boys...

I was going to use Shrike for my last name cuz I couldn't think of anything and was playing Front Mission at the time, but I might use Ifrit for my last name as well.

You should decide before I make my char, so it doesn't run around looking like Yarr's wife.

lol

I think it might be fun to have a few of us without last names we come up with using Ifrit to kind of band together, but idk. Food for thought for the next 3 days I suppose.

Im pretty sure the only people who will be allowed to use Ifrit as their last name will be people who played FFXI. I like the idea that people who see me will instantly know im not a total retard.
