SE Hear Our Prayers

What do you wish SE would add/change with the game in the future (all in one handy thread)?

● Private Housing
I know Private Housing is coming, but I want it nooow!! D:

● Retainer Appearance Editor
I want to be able to edit my retainer without having to discharge them completely and start fresh, because then they'll lose all their venture exp. :/

● Dancer Class
Coz lalafell's dance skills are wasted on the tabletops of the Eorzean pubs.

● Guild Alliances
Where you can official ally with guilds, have an alliance chat channel and maybe even certain bonus'.

● Chocobo Keep Costumes
I want these so much!!

● Dyeable Swimwear
Because I want it in pink!!

● Non Gender/Race Locked Hair
Because there's no need for it!

● Non Gender/Race Locked Clothes
Because reasons.

● New Pink Dyes
Like carnation pink, deep pink, or just something that isn't dull.

● Banking
Some kind of banking system you can earn interest on would be nice.

● Pokey Tongue Emote
Because I like to go :p.

● Facepalm Emote
For all your idiot woes.

● More Stance Changes
Preferably non gender/race locked.

● Unlock Class Bound Vanities
I love some of the DoW outfits and I wish they were glamourable to DoM.

● Real-Time Travel
I miss this from the beta. You could take the ship from one place to another and just relax on it as you sailed the seas. This needs to come back.

● Water Fun
Being able to splash eachother, swim, etc.

● Name Changing
Like so many others, I wasn't aware of the Lore system for naming characters and I sooo want to name my lalafell with one that fits the Lore now.

I just want the hug emote.

• Ready Stance Changes

The new idle stances are fantastic. They even have it so you can rotate them, and have them take effect after a set amount of time that's up to you

What I want is ready stance changes. I'm tired of my BLM holding out her staff, groping a boob to the side, and setting her legs like she's trying to straddle a damn horse.

More idle animations that correspond with your surrounds, such as leaning on a wall. if you're near one.

More light based attacks, As a WHM i kind of feel we need more of this element to go with the job, does not feel right still throwing out wind and earth attacks when you're this holy mage.

and on that note, BLM should get some direct Dark based attacks. same as whm.

I want to be able to pick up my girlfriend's lalafell and spin her around...

Something tells me lalafell would hate that being done though

SE while people are asking for stuff I want.

1. Bring back the /slap and make it actually smack someone like the snowballs hit.

2. Least a /dance that is modernized I do find it funny you make us dance like fools but we need a cool dance.

3. Make special Materia, like in FF7 here, like the double attack materia, you know what I mean use the same idea as you would spirit bonding but fighting enemies for a long time to level up the % that the move would go off.

Dancer would be nice, how about some sort of traditional Japanese-ish dance that using the fan?

I would love to have /slap emote too though...

Yeah that's something I miss, used to do it to people in FFXI

I don't understand why they didn't add it here.

This may affect the game further down the line. For example, for now, it may seem reasonable but if the server starts earning interest off its entire overall gil, eventually over time, we will need to recalculate all gil sinks and some of these gil sinks like your personal housing will be out of most player's reach, especially new ones as we age as a community. Not only are we earning gil thru gil generation methods but we are earning gil with gil. We are talking a massive increase in gil.

Also we if look at how much RMT's possibly have, which I recall prior to 2.1, Yoshida was stating that they had accounted for RMTs in the equation of FC lots with 10%. RMT's technically could just pile a huge amount of gil and sell off the interest earned. In the current state, RMTs, have to bot and compete for gil on the market board. With this system, RMTs, technically could sit and just sell gil.

This is a hot topic I'd say. If people are going to be for this, people need to keep in mind that there are downsides to this feature.

Otherwise I don't see anything really wrong with the others.

● Reading Emote
A persistent emote so we can sit and read in the pubs and such.

● Relaxing Emote
So we can laze in the grass and watch the clouds go by.

● Dancing Chocobo Emote
Literally what it says. :p

This is a Fantastic idea. I would also like to expand on this, make it a quest, and you can quest for different books designs, just use the designs already in the game. But quest for as many designs as you can handle.

Also a drinking emote, so you can hang around a table, and drink..."WATER" :P but while your chatting with your friends in your FC/personal house.


TO ALL FUTURE READERS, PLEASE LIKE THE POST IF YOU AGREE.

Feel free to post that you like it and agree. But Devs go by likes, so please with some sugar on top, like the posts.

THIS.

SO MUCH THIS.

I mean, okay, they're allowing you to have a Sacred Bond with anyone regardless of sex/race/gender/age/etc., but you can't even dress yourself like someone of the opposite sex? Nonsense, I say! Utter nonsense!

The hairstyle thing is especially annoying. What's wrong with guys with long, straight, pretty hair? Why can't I have a nice and simple short crop as a female? I can't see any justification for these omissions and it particularly irritates me as someone who wanted to play a tomboy but can only get most of the way there due to the hairstyle selection. Really irritating!

I want our retainers to be companions. They already have asigned classes, personality and gear. We can pay them venture tokens or another form of currency.

There are already npcs that fight alongside us. Then there's also chocobo, so it shouldn't be too hard to implement such a system. Maybe to limit other players confusion, make them wear retainer gear so players won't confuse them as other PCs

but groping boobs is fun D:

On another note, OP, for what it's worth i think your character's name is adorable.

I'd like a /changepose while mounted to sit side saddle on my chocobo(s)

^This times infinity! But sadly I doubt it's going to happen. :/

I'd like weaponless casting back from 1.0 (just without the boring nature it had originally)

I dont mean this to sound mean but....Dont you think most of this is pointless fluff that would take up resources to add actual useful things into the game? Like, who cares if while your char is standing around doing nothing if you're leaning on a wall. I'd rather those resources go to something meaningful.

Game immersion is just as meaningful to some people as, let's say, raiding is to others. It's certainly not "pointless fluff" just because you personally think it is. A good game will cater to all aspects of their playerbase, including those who enjoy character interaction more than progression.

Hmm... things I'd like to see..

• Elemental weaknesses and strengths
• Regular mobs with unique combat mechanics
• Unique limit breaks depending on job or class
• Fates that don't take over an hour to spawn
• Dungeons with multiple paths and different bosses depending on path.
• Naked Nero with a rose in his teeth

...just saying.

If you need being able to lean against a wall to feel more immersed in a game than I dont know what to tell you. I guess actual role playing has gotten just as lazy as everything else in an MMO. There's only so much resources the game can handle at any given time. Leaning on a wall...More shades of pink dye...etc...is a waste of those resources. Meaningful content is not limited to raids and fighting. But being able to /emote slapping someone and see your little pixelated hand swipe at air brings nothing to the game. I guess the days are long passed when role playing required creativity.

I doubt anyone expects any of these to happen, its just a for fun wishlist, dont take things so seriously

I don't know how long you've been playing these things, but MMORPGs were originally supposed to be working towards the dream of virtual worlds rather than just being these trite, overly-designed theme parks with carefully delineated rides and experiences. Many of these requests are born out of a desire to see the game work closer towards that eventual future, a future where we stop referring to these as MMORPGs entirely and instead inhabit them as virtual worlds like originally intended.

Of course, the intersection of these types of players (explorers and roleplayers vs. players who treat it as a "game") means there will always be some conflict of interest in where the direction of the game goes. A big part of this is to blame at the feet of WoW for popularizing the more gamey aspects of the genre and putting the actual "world" part of "World of Warcraft" on the backburner, which I think is quite an unfortunate thing. Nonetheless, I would argue that any attempt to improve the simulation aspects of the genre is worth lauding on its own, and would MUCH rather have development resources put towards this than yet another ride that I will outgrow within a week.

Isn't that what /stagger is?

I would like a better balance between the number of war and magic classes. Since we have around double the amount of war classes I think the magic classes should all unlock 2 jobs and the war remain with 1 job.
