Some companies, when given a large enough marketing budget, make some commercials and promotional materials that seem oddly disconnected from the spirit of the game. Final Fantasy XIV, by contrast, makes a Tural tourism website to promote Dawntrail. Not only is the site packed with jokes (like a “warning” about loose alpacas in case you like to pet alpacas), it even has comedian Rhys Darby as the Interim Deputy Director of Turalism after the prior director absolutely just left for no reason, there’s nothing unsettling here, no.
And yes, it is quite eager to share its recipe for big fat tacos, the big fat tacos, the big fat tacos. So big.
It’s a fun website with tidbits of lore and flavor and a fair chunk of humor, which should ease the impatience of FFXIV fans waiting eagerly for early access launch beginning tomorrow. You can also salve that impatience by enjoying the newly updated job guides, which show off all the changes coming with the update. Just gotta kill some time until you get to go on your own Tural adventure, right?
