Wow , great input everyone and supprised this thread caught a devo temas eye. LOL they must over looked this coom item also lol.
Alot of the above ideas are awsome I came up with a few that where not mentioned above also
Natin specific chairs Red one for sandy. Blue for bastok. Green for windy. Maybe with a big S W or B in the middle of the back part

bar stool /tavern stools (no not to taru foot stools) some 4 legged ones u can put at a time

White rose metal lace Its sorta like lawn funiture design and colored (sorta like lawn furniture) that can go with the diffrent collored tables u have (like the white table the yellow one and blue etc)

Normal 4 legged wooden chairs Had state the obvious since wasnt in any above i saw lol

Tanner chair a chair adorned with many furs of animals amongst it

cooking chair various nick nack cooking supplies on side of it ( could do one similar 4 each guild)

Pepple chair Various rocks and pebbles sorta like cobblestone pieced together to form a semi rock loking chair

Crystal Chair/Glass < same thing the tital reads

I wanted to say throne of bones but somoene already said it so i will elabriate say a Fish scale bone or dinosaur chair something sepcificaly crafted from one monster

Egg chair this could even be introduced next easter where you got a huge egg and got a seat inside lol


iono ran out idaesa and I want get back to the game lol But Another concept is change the specific guild chair kind and just put the craft loggo on back ~ Iono lol lets keep them creative jusices going <3 ing it


Also .......... is the furniture realy for us or our moogle since they are there more chilling than us ! (lol Food for thought)

We don't want any old chair.. we want thrones!
Each of these would have a special effect that triggers occasionally.


Archducal Throne
A faithfull replica of the archducal throne of Jeuno.
(Special effect: Moghouse music randomly replaced with Jeuno Xmas music when entering)

Royal Throne
A faithfull replica of the royal throne of San d'Oria.
(Special effect: a ghost appears sitting on the throne on certain nights...)

Demon Throne
A faithfull replica of the demonic throne of Castle Zvahl.
(Special effect: fog covers the floor of the moghouse on darksday nights)

If we get a green light from the Devs to /sit on chairs, this would allow us to sit on beds too yeah? That, and anything else that's elevated off the ground enough to pop-a-squat on like boulders, downed trees/big logs, and the heads of fallen foes, etc.?

lol my little taru hasn't been able to sit down on a comfortable, cushioned surface for 5+ years now, I think his tiny legs are a wee bit tired!

If they choose to NOT make a new sit animation for chairs, which shouldnt be a big deal since they made complex dance animations for dancer, a fun idea would be an event consumable that lets you zoom around town on a magic carpet. Give it like +25% movement speed and have optional ones, like one that emits rocket trails, sparkles, or let one look like a poptart that emits a rainbow. Nobody would complain and you devs would be labelled heros for yet another reason.

Some things you have to consider with animations for furniture is:

- Placement of furniture. Furniture against a wall or table would make it hard to make a universal animation. Probably would only be able to sit in chairs that have 2 empty squares in front of them...

- If they created even just three new chairs you can "sit" on, they'd have to potentially create 9 animations for each gender/race combo (3 chairs x 3 character sizes = 9 ways to "fit" in the chair properly)... 8 different race combinations... so 72 animations for 3 uniquely sized chairs.

Absolutely true, and a valid point. We got "Job specific" emotes (which I would prolly trade for the ability to sit in chairs if I could've voted on it) which were fun, and was in comparison perhaps far more complicated animation wise than composing sit down animations would be. No cool special effects needed like cool wings, roses floating around, DBZ-like power ups, etc., just perhaps an adjustment of the current /sit animations that we currently have. The animations of us getting up from a seated position could also be altered to work with these.

I thought about this too, and even though it wouldn't be as fun to watch as a full detailed animation would be, to save time and resources, they could be composed similar to how mounting up on a rent chocobo works. They could have made a dozen animations for the rent chocobo sequence, but they chose the "Blink" -» "Reappear" method instead to most likely save on time and resources. Programming chairs with a targetable point that would allow the possible new /sit <t> command to initiate the player to "Blink" for a moment and reappear in the chair. Again, it wouldn't be as fun to watch, but I'd take it over nothing if they allowed us to vote on it.

This way, they wouldn't have to invest huge amounts of time and animation resources to allow players the gift of comfortable seating for the 1st time. This would also make it easier to target non-chair objects (tree stumps, boulders, logs, beds, water fountains, etc.) and allow players to pop-a-squat in random locations throughout vana'diel so long as these objects are programmed with a targetable point for the player to trigger the possible /sit <t> command. Which would again be tremendously less of a strain to accomplish versus programming all the different types of collision parameters and syncing every animation to work with it properly.

If I had to choose, I would probably reserve the full animation of characters sitting down for special furniture that would only appear within one's Mog House. That way, these special chairs would have a great cutscene similar to the town chocobo stables mounting animation that players could enjoy. Other players inside your mog house wouldn't see your specific cutscene seating animation though. They would just see you blink and reappear in the seat. We have lots of personal cutscenes in Vana'diel though, so that shouldn't be too intolerable.

God I wish I could model, rig, and animate 3-D characters, because I would post examples of this in a heartbeat. Being stuck in 2-D sucks at times like this.
