It doesn't upset me. I'm merely putting the shoe on the other foot, since it appears you like to present yourself as the ultimate Final Fantasy authority around here. That irritates me somewhat, because you're just another forum poster like the rest of us.

they should add cars and trucks too, im kinda a truck guy...

I Want doom walls not the trains i loved the 2 doom wall fights in XII

They could easily just give a lore reason as to why certain methods of transport of forbidden or preferred in certain regions.

We know the Garlean Empire is pretty much a fascist state whose government likes to keep its citizens under its total control. It therefore stands to think that in order to maintain its control over the populace that the only type of transportation allowed to everyday citizens would be via land travel(I.E. trains) since they can establish and control checkpoints at various locations and following this reasoning, air and sea vessels are prohibited to all but the military.

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.

Possibly something like DoomGaze from FFVI would tide people over on airships until then, I bet he could drop something really accurate.

Also, I'm not really asking for info, just hoping they haven't fallen through the cracks.

"Sky" was a floating island within the atmosphere, not the moon. Closest thing to the moon in FFXI was actually Sea - it was a little pocket in orbit, and the battle versus Promathia actually took place in an orbital arena, with a view of the planet below.

Moon please. Every FF title should have an "orbital arena" fight of some sort too.

The only other FF MMO on the market didn't have a train because it didn't fit with the style of the game nor was it practical. Same goes for FFXIV.

I wasnt disagreeing with you. I was corroborating you. Gosh.

Yes!

Train would be fit to Thanalan zone.

Future instanced raid? Sounds good to me.
