Company Seals for your own chocobo THATS IT?!

3000 seals may seem cheap for you but for the new players that might seem a bit much.

Who says the content isn't there? Have you played patch 1.19 already? no? oh well then maybe you should wait to see what actually will happen. Maybe there is a cutscene or content to go along with it... I believe there is more to this then what the Lodestone has told us. I have to repeat NONE of us know until this patch is released and we get the content.. I will be laughing and feeling sorry for all of you if there is more to it when we get the patch and you make your "omg thank you SE for listening to us, I never doubted you for a second... (oh wait yes i did last week, doh hope no one calls me out on it)"
Seriously I could care less either way I just want my chocobo and to ride around on it...

finally someone posts with some common sense. We are all bashing SE for making new content for New players. While all of us have tried to rush through everything on patch day and be done with it till the next patch. As I said in another thread and pink just said, start over and tell me if it is so "handed to me"

I'm off on a tangent here, but remember that douchie dude in XI that was mean to his Chocobo? I think it was for the BeastMaster Job quest?

I really hated that guy and he made my youngest daughter cry. In fact I was leery of all players that had that Bald Headed - Tattooed - Mike Tyson - face because of that creep.

Please, SE. No more animal torture story-quests (unless I can kick the guys arse this time).

I actually feel they should lower the price...

I mean, the only way to afford enough seals is to do the rank 45 raid.
Some of us haven't been lucky enough to complete it, believe it or not.
Finding a party of 8 of high enough rank and willing to get together for it isn't as easy as it sounds.

If it were up to me, I'd like them to cut the price in half, so that way, people who have at least completed the first raid can get in on it.

I know I'm going to receive a ton of hate, stuff about how it shouldn't be so easy or the "noobs" will run the game, but it's how I feel, and I've been playing since day 1.

Its not the only way. They will introduce some more Grand Company quests with 1.19, not to mention you get rewarded seals for completing Caravan escorts.

Certainly a quest to talk to few people with couple cutscenes to explain what happened to them isnt too much to ask?

Its more content for the content, more lore, depth and RP. Why is everyone so anti quest?

I'm starting to thing the only type of a chocobo quest people seem to imagine is the tedious waste of time one from the unamed online prequel of ffxiv...

c'mon people vote for more content, story and depth! It's not tedious waste of time to watch a CS, it's lore and eye candy ;)

It's possible we'll get something like that for handing in an insurance form, much like completing some of the first Grand Company stuff introduced us to Cid and the concept of Meteor.

no effort on getting your personal chocobos?
Maybe for the ones that are R50 and have beaten everything. But think about it, for getting your personal chocobo you need to be R45 and beat Darkhold. That alone is more work than for getting your own personal chocobo in XI.
I have yet to beat Darkhold (its not that easy for the people with small Ls) so I will not have my own chobo day 1.

rofl!!! yep pretty much!

Let's say I'm a new FFXIV player, I want my personal chocobo, what are the steps?

1. Level to 25
2. Join a Grand Company by doing a quest
3. Rise to the rank of member (that's probably going to be at least one quest as well)
4. Accumulate seals by doing a lot of Caravan escorts or by doing the rank 25 raid (that takes hours if you don't know anyone)
(5. Do a quest that's about Chocobos, we don't know anything yet and people are already calling for a riot.)
6. Buy your chocobo license

In FFXI we have:

1. Trade one item to a Chocobo every hour for 5 hours.
2. ???
3. Congrats, you can now ride Chocobos!

You can be proud of yourself, you really worked hard for that license there.

I can't believe some of the people here, OF COURSE it's going to be easy to get a Chocobo when you have multiple rank 50 classes? Did you think you'd have to save a Chocobo from a level 90 Wyrm in a full party? Jesus christ...
