Swimming and underwater content?

Swimming would be nice but....



wait for it....



wait for it....



Don't hold your breath..

I just cut it fast: not gonna happen

It would be nice though :)

90% of people in this thread are for swimming and related content.... why no community rep love for this thread? I understand this is probably at the bottom of the Dev's list but it would be nice to know if it is considered for the future.

I would love to swim or be able to jump in the water from one of Limsa's bridges and get to explore more. Imagine diving under water and seeing a whole new world to explore, monsters to fight, lost treasures to find and secret areas to access.

Yeah i know they are on vacation but this thread has been here since the forums opened lol.

I know they need feedback from the dev to know what will happen but i thought i would see a rep say something like "interesting idea, i will let the dev about it..."

I like the idea of underwater content more than swimming, though any game I ever played that had swimming, I often deliberately spent a lot of time doing it. If it could be implemented well and not look or feel clunky or too limited, then I would be for swimming. But moreover I just like the idea of underwater content.

After seeing the fluid character animations in FFXIV they could do great things for swimming and make it really fun and realistic if they put some effort into it.

If jumping really does become reality then i'm sure we will see swimming sometime in the game's future expansions.

Swimming content? No. Underwater content like Ruins (FFX/FFXI etc)? Sure.

Yes please. That would be amazing. Maybe they could make underwater areas that at least have some imagination in their design unlike the world above. FFX underwater fights were really amazing. This would make XIV stand out of the crowd too. (In other ways that are not just negative.)
