Doom Train and Moon Content

The moon sounds interesting, for sure. Hey, even a ghost train type scenario sounds cool, but I can't say I see this happening.

I'm all for moon/outerspace/under the planets surface stuff. FF 4/5 are a great example of this. It was amazing to travel somewhere else, doesnt even need to be spaceship but a simple portal like in 5.

EDIT -> Oh isnt there something also already in the game about how we have two moons and one is getting bigger?

the doom train idea sounds really cool. sounds like a cool instance. but if this was to happen it would not happen for like other year or so. unless they thought and had this planed to do that. but who knows.

And bam, there's your potential lore justification.

As for what they could use them for? Well the sky's the limit. Use your imagination for crying out loud.

As for Final Fantasy games that have had trains, who cares? Every one that had one had a cool +1 bonus.

Yep exactly what i was thinking.

I think if the City/Nation is huge enough, it'll be logical to have trains in it to move about quickly. I'm not sure how big The Garlean Empire is but, assuming its a big nation with magitek airships 15 years prior to the events of the game, it should be big enough to have trains to transport people around yes?

A train system would be awesome! with stations and random events on the trains.

I had another idea too, they could make these big yellow bird things that you can actualy ride on and you get this funny music playing when you ride them and they eat this kind of spinach stuff so they dont get fatigued.

Another idea I had is they could make these ships but instead of them moving though water they could make them fly though the clouds and we can ride them from city to city.

If they put a train in the game, I had better be able to suplex it!

Doom Train instance sounds like a lot of fun. Might be interesting as a non-instanced raid too. There would be a camping problem I'm sure so instanced would probably be best. I just thought it would be neat if the train passed you and you saw a group on it fighting through to the engine. Maybe toss them a heal or something lol. Which then becomes a link shell event where a group boards the train and healers/nukers line up along the route to help as the train passes, or from the back of your chocobo riding along side it while you can keep up.

Anyway that would likely be one massively exploited event. A Doom train instance still sounds like a lot of fun though.

hm, i dont think i want too much of FF4 & FF6 in this game.
Thats what made FF4 & 6 unique, but if it were other options id prolly like it.

Dimensional / future / past etc possibly (kinda like FFXI i guess)

Or even better space... hm nah idk, meh

First, ^--- lmao.

Second, I love the ideas. It would definitely be some fun content to throw into the game. I actually really like the idea of the moving doom train battle. Would be fun jumping from the top of one car to the next and fighting your way to the front!

Nice. After the first few runs I always just killed it with an elixir. Cheap perhaps, but it was fun to end the fight just as quickly as it started.

Would be awesome if we got to infiltrate Garlond (is that the name?) via a train or something in the future, riding it right into the centre of their steam-punky-futuristicy-cuttlefish-shippy-goodness.

Would make for a great starting point in a new expansion if your party had to hijack a train :D
