Expanding mog house!

[Anela]

WOW!
I haven't checked this thread for a few days. You have done awesome work fleshing this out from an idea to full concept. Good Work!
I supported the idea all along, now it actually has the possibility of happening. I hope a MOD does pass this on to DEV.

I have a suggestion that might help on other areas also. It refines the OP's current summary just a little bit.

I have seen many posts about various ideas to bring people back to the older parts of the game. SE put a lot of effort, in the past, into developing the various story lines and expansions, so incorperate them into the Mog House expansion process.

Make the Mog House expanions only available after completing each of the various story lines. Each story line has a different expansion associated with it.

For example: Attain Rank 10 in Sandoria, and the next time you zone into your MH, your Mog tells you that you are eligable to expand a specific portion of your Mog House. (per the guidelines/requirement mentioned in the OP's summary. Materials, gil, a misc quest, minimum reputation in that area, etc.)

Each Rank 10, or story line completion makes you eligable to expand another specific portion of the house, or attain one of the effects discussed. (separating moghancement effects in different rooms for example)

This would give people the motivation to complete all of these various story lines and quests. For those that have already finished a particular line, speaking to the final NPC in the line, again, would trigger the Mog notice. Or Zoning into the MH, in a nation you got Rank 10 and moved on, would do the same thing.

For those that have finished all of them in the past, this would be additional recognition of their effort, and for those starting out, it would give them something besides lvl 90(99) to work towards.

The amount of MH expansions you get would depend entirely on you. If you are only interested in Gardening for example, you only would need to do the story line that gave you a "Green House" expansion.

I know they are already doing this with the synthetic Atma, but this would add incentive.

Hmmm... A strong idea! A noble one too! I like this idea! It even adds a bit of flavor to the house. Perhaps... Let me see if I can say this correctly.

Expansion "one" would be purely size of your home, maybe rooms. This would just be the Zilart missions for each Primary nation, Sandy Windy and Basty... Most higher level players have rank 10 in all nations (for what I can't imagine personally) but this would also give you reason to change nations, complete the missions, and expand your home.

Expansion "two" would be, Iunno, the CoP missions. At the end of which you split your rooms of your Moghouse into sections, each gaining it's own kupower from elements. Instead of one base bonus from your home, you gain multiples. Like super Kupowers out in the field.

Expansion "three" and "four" for the Aht Urghan and WotG escape me however... The balcony? The greenhouse idea? A basement level? Afraid it's difficult to say! I've never been rank 10 in any nation at all yet. Ideas? :3

Do keep in mind we need to make this as straight forwards as possible. Planning these expansions, quests, everything involved might put a choke hold on SE, or it might give them everything they need. It's a two-way street. Talking it out like this is good and all, but unless someone takes interest in SE (which they haven't for going on six years now or so since I first introduced the idea) then we're just walking in circles.


So if you know or see a mod floating around the forums, give them a poke and a link and get them to come here!

Once I get feedback on this post and a stronger idea I'll revise the summary again to reflect it. Keep up the good conversation!

EDIT: I might be gas-bagging, but the zilart missions ARE the nation missions correct, or am I shooting in the dark? If not then whatever, slip of the tongue.

ANY MODS SEEN THIS YET? D:

Thanks for the feedback! There are definitely a lot of cool ideas getting tossed around here. It would be rather difficult to expand our current mog houses, however, I will escalate this to the development team so they can look in to it.

If you have any other ideas on the subject, as always, please don’t hesitate to share!

SCORE!! ^^/ And again it's Camate with the coolness to take time out and be the messenger! Very cool of you Camate /salute

"Difficult" only equates to a challenge that can be overcome with determination, diligence and hard work! At least you didn't say "Impossible"

I agree. ^^ Impossible is for suckers.

So now we come to the next part of our synopsis. None of us probably know what the development team needs to do to make this a reality, but if they need a brainstorming team to handle the mess, we're here to support them!

I'm still working on a new synopsis and it may take me a bit... So please be patient!

(By the way, nice sig King)
