Default The End Is Nigh- 06.09.2009 Septimus

At the recent E3 Conference, Squre-Enix made an announcement that many of us have been expecting for a while now- the Rapture is coming. The game codenamed as Rapture was announced to be Final Fantasy XIV. Final Fantasy XIV will be an online game and is to be released in Spring 2010. But this doesn't mean that Final Fantasy XI is over yet! They still have big plans for the game; big, big plans.



In fact, we here at BG have found out about one of their big plans. Our very reliable sources have done it again- they let us know that there exists a trailer for the next expansion add-on. One of our secret operatives that we placed in Square-Enix managed to get a hold of a copy of the trailer and smuggled it out of Square-Enix Headquarters on a jump drive placed in a very uncomfortable location. But all of that effort will be rewarded as we present to you, oh gentle viewer, a sneak peak at what is in store for us in A Moogle Kupo d'Etat.



A Moogle Kupo dEtat




Stuff we did




Dynamis


















Einherjar












Odin










Retro Sky Farming!






















One lonely gag Kirin picture








Limbus










Omega










Ultima










Wyrm












Stuff we got that people actually bothered to tell me about.




Congratulations to Aerides and Ceiyne for matching his and hers Crimson Cuisses.








Congratulations to Atumre's Mannequin for Commodore Tricorne.








Congratulations to Bregor for Melee Hose, Cleric's Cap, and Warrior's Mask completing full Warrior's armor set.








Congratulations to Darkdreamer for Duelist's Belt.








Congratulations to Emmaline for Sukazku's Sune-ate.








Congratulations to Grneko for Byakko's Haidate, Crimson Greaves, and Koenig Schaller.








Congratulations to Gorion for Cleric's Briault, Hecatomb Leggings, Hecatomb Harness, and Adaman Breeches.








Congratulations to Janessa for Goliard Clogs and Abyss Cape.








Congratulations to Kazen for Homam Corazza.








Congratulations to Kuno for Morrigan's Pigaches completing full Morrigan's attire set.








Congratulations to Ryphen for Hecatomb Cap.




Congratulations to Slone for Abyss Flanchard.




Congratulations to Sobius for Hofud, Mirage Bazubands, and Mirage Charuqs +1.








Congratulations to Sonomaa for Crimson Scale Mail.








And whose gear was euphoric enough to be the Loot Whore of the Month?









WARTHOG! Congratulations for Hecatomb Leggings, Warrior's Cuisses, Duelist's Tights, Melee Crown completing full Melee attire set, and Saotome Kote completing full Saotome armor set.











Join us next month as I discuss how odd it is that I somehow managed to win absolutely nothing in the Mog Bonanza.

It's kind of like how people like Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert looked at Bush as President.

I had to reshoot that four or five times to get it right. But Atum did it like a champ.

The galka should have died while 3 - 4 tarus ran by, it would have been like everything I've seen in the tower all over again.

10/10 this is a masterpiece

It is Dynamis - Xarcabard, it would be safe to bet that the Update Teaser showed Xarcabard [S]. Both are rehashes of Xarcabard. So- kind of?
