Dream sequence outta nowhere!

One thing introduced in the latter half of Version 1 which I think would be fun to introduce again was the unexpected, funny/scary dream sequences.

They weren't included in the patch notes, but after you passed certain land marks (completed a specific hildibrand quest, shut down the satellite uplink in whatever Castrum that was etc) then you had a chance of logging in to a dream sequence or a cut scene.

It was something that jarred you out of your routine. Really took you into the world.

Imagine, a week or two after you down Thornmarch (Hard) you log in, your character wakes up to find a moogle floating over his head, threatening or apologising or whatever.

Now with linky goodness

Yes, Legacy Users have dreams when they log out in their inn room since 2.0. It's unlikely that non-legacy users will ever have it. But we can only hope for 3.0.

Agree, haven't had one dream.

I'd fully support this, though I'd like a way to use inn bed options in a house bed, I rather log off in my house than a random inn :p

We used to have 'dreams' in 1.# that would hint at a free item 'under the pillow'. Then we'd have story related dream cutscenes if we were progressed far enough in the story. Then there was the Hildibrand quests. Such fun we had hecking the bed. In 2.0, not so much.

I miss finding cookies under my pillow.

I think this is specifically talking about hecking the bed, not necessarily the dreams, but there's hope:

The team isn’t planning on removing the “cutscene” where players lie down on the Inn bed to logout, and there isn’t going to be any options to change camera angles or freely interact with the bed while lying down.

We did also ask the team about "pajama gear", but currently there aren’t any plans.

Yes, making player-owned beds an interactable item would be great. Though this would limit the cutscenes to dreams only. Can't wake up to a CS of Hildibrand's shining smile if he's glitching through the wardrobe by the side of your bed.

Kind of reminds me of the Shadow dream sequences in FF VI. I would enjoy something unexpected like this. Maybe add an achievement or minion for activating all of the sequences.

Actually the Hildibrand thing from 1.0 wasn't a dream. We woke up to find him and Nashu in our room but when we woke up we saw Nashu first in a sleepiness then BAM its Hildibrand lookin silly and made us fall out of our bed lol. But that was part of the questline.

The only dream we had was that really creepy one where when we logged in we were in Mor Dhona & all of our friends and allies around us were dead and vanishing, Dalamud was huge in the sky & we fell to our knees in horror while Nael Van Darnus approached us from behind weapon drawn. There was a pause then he thrusted it forward, it cut to black & you heard a thud. You then wake up on the floor of the Inn startled, you get up shake it off then you're in the game.

*sigh* that was so awesome ^_^

Added link to OP.

Why do people keep saying 'hecking' the bed?!?!?

As the feature came ingame, the c in checking was missing

Actually, iirc it was the pre-patch notes that had the typo. In game it was fine.
