Strange World

Fellow sightseers, we are thrilled to announce the alpha version of the Sights of Eorzea website, a tool to help us explore and share the breathtaking landscapes of our beloved Etheirys!

Sync with the Sights of Eorzea Discord Server

The site seamlessly integrates with our Discord server, where you can share discoveries and chat with fellow adventurers! Posts to our gpose-locations forum will be synced and available on the public website; no Discord sign-in is required!

Tag Search

Searching for that special place just got a whole lot easier! Whether finding gorgeous nooks and crannies within instances or uncovering those mesmerizing Open World shots, the tagging system got your back.

By creating a forum post with the in-game <pos> information, the tag engine accurately determines the associated zone, patch, and expansion - making it much easier to look for that perfect location!

You can also add search tags to your post to help fellow adventurers locate specific features, like grass, wood-floor or stone-building:

Or search for Photo Studios by Data Center, Server, and Location - and even publish your own!

Known Issues

Keep in mind that this is a very early alpha release!

Our gallery tiling has a few missing spots, where we plan to feature captivating callouts that showcase tag combinations like Studios, Instances, and Hidden Places, to name a few.

Occasionally, some scenes may have their locations mistagged. We'll get that fixed Soon™!

Most of the UX work up to this point was focused on a functional desktop experience. We'll be tackling mobile next!

Caching large images is hard, and we're still fine-tuning it. You may experience some lag because of that, but rest assured we'll be working on optimization.

Future Plans

This is only the beginning of our journey; our plans include synchronizing other sections of the server, like Guides, Community resources (including Preset Collections and Tools), and eventually the Gallery itself - so public, non-Discord users can enjoy everything our community put together.

Improving navigation and stability is next on our list. We understand that this alpha release will inevitably encounter bugs and downtime; we'll be working on stabilization next.

I hope you enjoy what we made so far; suggestions and comments are more than welcome!

Oh, I almost forgot! Here's the link to the Test version: https://test.sightsofeorzea.com/

And with that - happy exploring!

Love, don't let me go.

and since I was looking into it anyway, I went and dug around the textures a bit and grabbed some of the source elements from there too in case anyone wants any of them; while I do see plenty of the big speech bubbles around, a lot of them seem to be pre-assembled I figured maybe someone'd like the individual elements or something.
