Final Fantasy 14 had quite the past weekend, between director Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida's big Evercold reveal and everything that's set to come with 8.0 – but I'd argue that one of the most significant announcements is the change to the MMO's two-minute meta.
In case you're out of the loop, Final Fantasy 14 – especially the game's more high-end content like Extremes, Savages, and Ultimates – sees fans often utilizing a two-minute window while executing their job's rotation. Basically, everyone applies their buffs at the same time so that they all align properly.
It's a system of synergy, but it's one that we apparently won't have to worry about anymore come Evercold in January 2027.
