a big stack of new information for you to read!

main focus including :

New combat system - It's now much more fast paced compared to the one in Alpha
Company System - It's a group of linkshells, something like Alliance between many guilds. There will be trophies, bonuses, guild-house, and PLAYER OWNED LAND <=. But of course, that will require the group of linkshells to work hand in hand!
Transportation - Chocobo carriage, flying air ship, ships/sails, etc
MALE MIQO'TE - not playable, but!!
