For bring more helpful to players, FFXIV official website update. With a lot of information and scans being slipped out onto the net as of late, it was only time before Square-Enix would finally release an official update to their website. They delivered this today with new images and information on character creation, more information regarding the lore of FFXIV, and beautiful screenshots to tantalize our eye-candy taste buds.
A Story of a Realm Divided
Referring back to this entry (Details of the FFXIV Storyline from Famitsu), we know that the story of FFXIV begins ten years prior to the current events that will take place in Eorzea. During this time, Primals, summoned by the beast tribes, wrought havoc upon Eorzea while the Garlean Empire also sought to gain power by the use of technology and military might. In the midst of a battle that would lay to ruin Ala Mhigo and would further divide Eorzea, a power known as Echo arrives. This power is said to cause the souls of those who are touched by it to resonate with others. From this is born the ability to educe past experiences in a way that leads people to ’see and feel them as though they were one’s own.’ But is this power a blessing or a curse in disguise?
Character Creation
After much speculation, Square-Enix has decided to give us a little more information to go off on about their character creation system. According to their website, we can expect for the process to be “simple yet comprehensive”. Different face types will be available, as will hair styles, skin tone, eye color, mouth, nose, and eye shape. A player is also able to elect which clan they wish to be a part of, and adorn their character with scars and/or tattoos.
