Final Fantasy 14: Evercold's story will have a faster tempo, with worldbuilding in side quests, says Yoshi-P—but I'm not sure that was the problem with Dawntrail
"This time we are putting in serious consideration on the sense of tempo, back at Dawntrail we were being really careful in depicting new lands, new cultures, new encounters and this greatly slowed down the pacing on story progression.
AI Summary
Director Naoki “Yoshi‑P” Yoshida said the Dawntrail expansion’s focus on new lands, cultures and encounters slowed story pacing, misaligning with players’ desire to keep moving forward. Acknowledging this shortcoming, he explained that Evercold will shift similar world‑building elements into side quests, allowing players to explore them at their own pace. This change aims to create a faster narrative tempo while preserving optional content for later enjoyment. The remarks were shared on the r/FFXIV subreddit.
