Title: New expansion?

Three screens captioned...

"Latest Screenshot of the next expansion release winter 2007

Latest Expansion seems to be about the past of vanadiel (Crystal War Period ??)

Extension of north area "



Obviously, this may or may not be 100% accurate. The expansion news seems legit, dunno about the screens though...


Though, you know... looking at them... they look like current areas maybe before the crystal war. Since it was mentioned it's about that. Maybe those are pictures of the past? Flashbacks? Time travel?! O_o

PS: I'm bored.

PPS: It's official. http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/index.shtml (http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/index.shtml) There's a video O_O. Fo sho zones pre-war. O_O I'ma shut up now. O_O

Ugh, even more stuff to do, maybe there will be stuff I can get for PUP on it. Will there be new jobs again?  Oh and maybe Ketsu won't be as bored.

Defniatly looks very cool. I have to agree it seems like a "Time Travel" concept. If you watch the video on the official SE website it shows one zone, then flashes to a very similar looking zone.

I.E. It shows Sarutabaruta and the OP with one of the Horrototo Ruin entrances in the background then it flashes to the same section of the map just with the Horototo tower not being all broken looking, it looks brand new. Anyways if you haven't checked it out yet, you should.

Mmm, definitely won't be bored! At least, I don't think. I don't really know... but, I have faith! Though, gonna fix that soon, too! Once I mnk it up again.

Not sure about new jobs. Seems like a CoPesque story-driven expansion. Or at least... that's what I'm assuming. Not much you can do than speculate at this point.

I want to save that girl at the beginning ; ;

Whatever it is, I'm pretty sure it will be great! These expansions have been getting better each time, in my opinion :)

Maybe we should do that, get everyone through all the ToAU missions. They've been really easy so far, I've been able to solo them all the way up to the Black Coffin, which is a bit much to solo. So, if anyone needs any help on them, let me know! It's mostly cutscenes, anyway :)
