That music is basically THE FF theme from the older games. (FF1-FF4) It's nice to hear that song again. FF4 was really my entrance into the RPG world and hearing it in this game gets me all nostalgic.

So it seems like the only new information they've posted on the JP website is the sub-races for each race. It's pretty cool to see that there's that kind of diversity for each race. The one thing that makes me scratch my head is the Hyur Highlanders, as they only show a male model. I wonder if they just haven't drawn up a female model yet, or if they're like cavemen and go find them a woman and drag them back to their cave by the hair...?

I myself want to play an Elezen, but now with the introduction of the Shaders, I get the feeling a majority of the people playing Elezen are going to pick that option. I kind of want to stand out, but maybe with all of the customization options that'll be available I can still look different. All of the sub-races look pretty cool though.

yeah it's a new arrangement of an old FF1 main theme.

BUT, the nostalgia! it's the kind of theme whose repetition never tires for the uncertainty of future adventure does it bring!

With all the options to go lighter and darker for skin and hair, possibly eyes, I wonder how many Ark Angel EVs we will see running around, or any of the Divine Might cast...

Those images are amazing, as I stated in the other thread I find it hard to believe that an MMO could look like that, if it does I think I will need to have my jaw wired back together or it will just be on the floor the whole time. Looking forward to reading the translations with the info for the various sub-races!

I wonder if the subtleties of the translation will have any small hint about class effectiveness?
