Plus, a Pokemon-esque minion game<\/h2>

I haven’t been playing Final Fantasy XIV<\/em> as much as I’d like, mostly due to the content drought and other obligations. But that will change when patch 3.1 hits, which is set to bring a ton of new activities to the game.<\/p>

One of the biggest additions is the Diadem area, which is basically a free roaming zone that can be played solo or with friends. There’s also new story missions, new Gold Saucer games, two additional dungeons, extra Vanu Vanu tribe quests, primal encounters (a reworked Knights of the Round fight from the main scenario quest), a 24-man raid similar to the Crystal Tower series (Void Ark), and a ton of quality of life adjustments.<\/p>

I really dig how much they’ve changed boss fights in dungeons over the past year or so, and the Pharos Sirius hard mode fights look pretty amazing. What I’m most excited for however is the Void Ark, which will be really easy to pick up and play.<\/p>
