Why Couldn't SMN summon everyting like Bahamut?

I thought we didn't summon giant summons because they were obstrusive but that bahamut is pretty big. So why again couldn't they give nice big summons for the summons instead of the ugly egis?

Probably because its only 20 seconds and really, matches the scale of Primal to Egi if we think about it hard enough. Titan-Egi is like, 1/20th of Titan, and Bahamut Egi seems to be about the same.

I think most of us thought of the actual primal size being summonned would be inconvenient but this scaling works well. So well in fact that I'd rather havr SMN having the ability to trance summon all primals like that than play the dot game.

Won't disagree, if they were all Bagamut Egi's size, it'd bring back some of the immersion to the job.

le sigh.. I wish it could be like that. Alas ill take what I can get. Im excited for Bahumut

Again SMNer player base doesn't get it. If the egis were designed the way you wanted in the current game structure. You would basically be BLM with different animations. If that is what you want ask for it. Not a pet job, with a persistent pet.

And likely not usable every minute either. I expect anywhere between two and three minutes for a couple seconds of awesome.

They wanted to make it simpler.

But I think they are now listening and moving to the right direction. And I truly believe that in the next expansion we might even get to have the rest of the Egis like that.

So it's all going in the right direction

Wait for the next summon, Alexander :D

THIS!! this would be SO AWESOME!! If SMN was based around this idea instead, I'd be more than happy with that
