So Final Fantasy XIV has put out its sizzle reel for Patch 5.1, and almost immediately I felt pretty much excluded. Most of it was about content tiers I don’t care about, styled after a game I am worn out about, with only a couple of nods to parts of the patch I’m interested in.

To be fair, this feeling is mostly self-inflicted, but it brought up a whole lot of sour thoughts all the same and I felt the need to talk about them.

So the Letter from the Producer for XIV happened.  In it, there was a great deal of outline for the coming large content patch, 3.1.  In typical fashion for this game, a great deal of things are being applied that are definitely exciting.  New dungeons, a new Primal, lots of adjustments to the current jobs and a complete surprise in the form of the Minion RTS game Lords of Verminion.

The whole thing is pretty damned interesting…but at the same time, there are still some questions.  There’s still hopes.  There’s still a list of things that I want this patch to be.  And because I’m VERY eager to write anything that springs to mind as a result of Blaugust, let’s line those out, shall we?

Even if someone will likely write a better lineup than me.

SPOILER ALERT:  This article is going to once more discuss spoilers for the Main Scenario Quest of the game.  If you haven’t played through, please stop here!
