But we haven't seen many of the Victorian/Japanese/Renaissance style humanoid mobs from FFVI in any recent games:

http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__...2/L30magic.PNGhttp://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__...7/7e/Vilia.pnghttp://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__...a/NinjaFF6.PNGhttp://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__...d/Parasoul.PNGhttp://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__.../aa/Nerapa.PNGhttp://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__...6Number024.PNGhttp://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__...14/Naughty.PNGhttp://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__...F6Merchant.PNGhttp://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__.../2/26/Ogor.PNG

They all feel very foreign, and would make kind of cool mobs in the empire.. but I do forsee some problems:

1) Believable lore might be an issue with those guys.. Why are these freak-shows attacking us?? (Then again, they could live in a sort of lawless and dangerous Midgar-like area in the slums of the Emprire... , but they serve a rather psychotic mob boss or cult leader)

2) The forums will immediately be full of people asking the devs to make X piece of humanoid mob gear available to players to wear. In which case, players end up looking like the mobs.. and well... it gets stupid.


Still, the FOUR FIENDS (FFI) is what I want now more than anything else.

love this idea

well there you go with mandragoras in ARR:

http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/img/sc..._20_PUB_08.jpg


i have written that tons of times but i just would like to see Gilgamesh in the game.. it would be such an epic boss.. i would enjoy him more than odin.

either in FF8 style
http://thegia.psy-q.ch/sites/www.the.../gilgamesh.jpg

in FF12 style

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...sh2_render.png

or even in a complete new style.. i'd be fine with it.

imagine if he could drop many different weapons like we see in the picture above.

Would be awesome to see her as the final boss in the Crystal Tower raid. Would bring a ton of nostalgia to the game.

Final Fantasy IV
Four Elemental Fiends
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2728/...c0a9c290_o.jpg

I always thought it would be a neat fight with all four of them at once. Like their fight in the Giant of Babil, they take turns fighting you, and maybe at 10% they all come at you at once with a shared HP pool.

Final Fantasy V
Gilgamesh
http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__...gamesh_PSP.png

This one is a given. His background story makes it that he can appear in any Final Fantasy world and I think it is time he took a visit to Eorzea. Good excuse to drop Genji Gear and possibly nostalgia weapons.

Tonberry
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__...9-tonberry.jpg

No doubt he will make his inevitable appearance, but don't we always want Tonberrys in our Final Fantasy games? Maybe become some type of summon for Arcanist/Summoner.

Final Fantasy VI
Ultros
http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...ltrosFirst.PNG

While already done in FFXIII-2, I think they could have a place in here some how. We already have artwork of Typhoon for FFXIV, naturally he needs his partner in crime, Ultros, yes? Maybe not a fight, but some form of cameo appearance from him.

Doomgaze
http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__...c/Doomgaze.PNG

This was a very awesome monster to go against, and has great designs that would work well in this game.

---

This is the post the devs need to read.

+1 Gilgamesh & 4 fiends.

I would actually love to see more pirates and poachers from xiv but done in a way that doesn't haven't them randomly thrown in places that make no sense. The pirate cave next to bald knoll had most of my fav mobs in in 1.0 in it and sadly went totally under utilized.

Also the yensu from XII would go in thanalan region perfectly.

i'd like to see anima from ff10. always liked that summon the most in that game. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__...ma_Artwork.jpg maybe add it in as a big battle of some kind or just something similar in some fitting zone with stuff that has that type of dark crazy looking mobs in them.

http://www.ffcompendium.com/EspMon/demonwall4-b.gif lol maybe demon walls too.

also always loved the looks of toneberry mobs.

Behemoth was shown in one of the ARR trailers. I would love to see more sandworms.

Ruby and Emerals Weapon and ill be happy make them be the AV from XI PRE (just incase you dont know that means before -_-) Lv cap raise and empty being added

Hellhouse from FF7 (must)

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...house-calm.png

Sahgin will be coming, it's pretty much been confirmed and leviathon will be their primal.

I vote for WarMECH, not the later ones (so not from FFXIII or FFVII) - I mean old school FFI WarMECH (Death Machine) - Hell, even captialize the MECH part. ;)

Fixed that for you~ ;)

But they would have to be part of a new expansion.. maybe they serve as fallen counterparts to the Twelve. -- (Damn, those battles would be cool!)

Also, they would need to be redesigned for this game.. no straight import from FFXII, please.



Oh, and Yojimbo was just a crappy Odin knockoff... Yeah I said it.

EDIT: sorry, meant Gilgamesh, not Odin.

More like his poor derelict cousin~ Wouldn't do shit unless you paid him, and even if you gave him every gil in your coin purse he'd do pathetic damage! That's why he's so loveable :p

EDIT: OF COURSE~~~ If you did spend the time (which I didn't) to raise your affinity with him, he became somewhat useful. He just left more of an impression on me, Gilgamesh is a little too stereotypical? I thought it was a lot more curious/unique for a summon to demand something from you instead of just blindly following your lead. Made his BA level in my eyes rise significantly :p

EDIT EDIT: Wait a second... you said Odin but I read Gilgamesh. I can entirely understand if you want to call Yojimbo a Gilgamesh knockoff... but an Odin knockoff?? O_o

Hell.. i could even think of a Whalemob ( i.e. Sin ), which floats through the Sea and you go on a Boattrip with a full Alliance trying to find it, then finding it.. its vanish's and you have to find it again etc etc. Posibilities are somewhat unlimited.

I'd like to get the translation on that. Is that a mob that is supposed to be in XIV?

I like these from FF11 - Uragnites, Evil Weapons, Frogs (BLM type from ToAU), Krakens, Empty monster types, and Kindreds.

Apparently it's supposed to be an unused Woodwraith from XIII. Shame, I really like that design! Huge monsters would be great. I remember getting so excited when the first XIV details came out, talking about creatures that looked like walking mountains. Even if it's just a fight like Sin from X where you have to fight the fins first, and then work up to the rest of the body, it would still be great. Different stages to the fight, to take down one enormous foe.

No it's not. Never blaspheme like that again.

Also, that form of Cactuar in 3D has worked before.

One of my favourite XI mods was to make the cactuar look like the original, and it worked great.

from what i understand, in ancient eorzea there was at least one extremly developed civilization. so something like ancient high tech monster should be possible

I don't think so. The only thing we really know about ancient Eorzea is that the wandering tribes called the gods and godesses that inhabited Aldenard 'the twelve' and said tribes were blessed by the twelve. Eventually the tribes warred with each other and nearly tore the planet apart.

The ancient civilization that I believe he is referring to is Allag. Though I'm positive that they aren't from Eorzea, and rather one of the other two continents.

---

I've never heard of Allag. Where was it mentioned, NPC somewhere?

Oh I see, the Allagan empire. For some reason my head didn't make the correlation.

Well we don't really know too much about Allag. All we know is that they worshiped the twelve and had 'onion knights'.

The Allagan empire spanned all of Eorzea too.

Dooooooooooooooooooooooooom Train!
