Bring back login events

would be much better if they ninja added things like this. Not much of a surprise if its in the patch notes

Not as a serious event of course, more like what Odin and Behemoth are now (purely for vanity) and a "proper" Diabolos fight can come later like how we're meant to get a proper Odin fight at some point.

Would be all the more epic if they don't even mention it at all and people just stumble across the fight at random. Even though I generally hate the Duty Finder, I'd actually find being thrown into something like this, purely at random, to be a lot of fun. They'd have to give it some tangible rewards though, otherwise people will just leave... Guess they could always just make it soloable...

They could even reuse the same system for events, like Halloween. Imaging doing the regular Halloween quest, logging out in your Inn, then logging on the next day and you're trapped in a Dynamis like version of Eorzea until you finish the real Halloween event...

Only problem with this is that it removes the element of choice. Trapping someone in something until X is achieved or forcing them to load into an instance they maybe didn't want to do.

I don't see this happening ever.

What would be nice is if they gave you something worth while for doing it like Furniture for your house, or other awesome vanity items that you can only get when you do these events. Like waking up to mr. fancypants in your face when it happens you'd get a portrait of his big shining smiling face lol. Like Sotek posted it wouldn't be anything serious so there would no need to drop gear. If they wanted to drop gear they could drop level 1 vanity gear maybe make some sets that depict the gear from earlier popular version of FF series.

As others have stated they could make it so you can opt out of it.

I really enjoyed logging into event cutscenes, and also the dream sequences. I hope that is a feature that returns.

Yeah, I miss this! Even if it's just the little notice in chat to tell us what we were dreaming about if we slept in an inn, I would be very happy. I hope this happens! :)

This was a really nice touch to the game, would love to see a come back on this one.

Also Love the Dream Instance Idea, probably not with other people but maybe just a random nonsense battle (Something like 6 tiny titans trying to kill you with a fluffy cloud Arena where you have to build up a LB move which traps them into bubbles and they all float away) i think i need my head examined....

I do miss little things like this, I think it would encourage people to use the inn more as well.

Nightmare video if anyone was curious.
