The Las Vegas Fanfest, our first of three, will be taking place this Friday! Kicking off with a 1.5 hour long keynote at 10AM PDT, we can expect buckets of new announcements related to patch 6.5 and beyond.

So I'm curious to hear what things people are most looking forward to. What will the next expansion be? Will there be new jobs? Will we finally see female Hrothgar? Will Yoshi-P finally convince the producer of FF16 to let us have a crossover event? Will [insert your job here] ever be balanced in PvP?

Lay your theories, hot takes, and baseless speculations on me!

This would be awesome, but I can't imagine it happening due to the ripple effects of some players controlling a separate character in the narrative. Old content wouldn't make sense and new content would have to create multiple instances of dialogue any time a relationship or past event is mentioned with the player. I don't think it's impossible, but it does limit what they can do and adds more work to the pile.

But if they did do it, I would love it if veteran players got a prompt to recreate their character (as if using a fantasia) and then when they went to meet with the scions, Derplander would be their old WoL.
