Most reliable scholars of Eorzea agree that the second Calamity was ushered in on March 15th, when Hatching-Tide started in
Final Fantasy XIV once again and the Pa-Paya sheet music became available to players. Yes,
this year’s event will allow players to purchase the insanely catchy tune that dominates the cities through several events, and now it can echo through your Free Company house through all eternity. The developer blog about the upcoming event even knows that it’s coming. Nothing more can be done aside from waiting with grim resignation.
Of course, there’s more to this year’s Hatching-Tide than just the sheet music – players will also have access to a new egg hat, new egg-themed barding for chocobos, and a new egg decoration for the outdoors. So there’s quite a bit for players to like and unlock in the mix. But that sheet music is unleashing something dark upon each and every one of us. Nothing more can be done about it now.
