cameos in FFXIV!

I know with all the changes and everything going with the game, with chocos and other staples in a FF, wouldn't it be cool to see a cameo of one of your favorite FF characters, items, and situations?

And who'd you want SE to put a cameo of?

not just characters also, stuff like gunblades and chainsaw axe.


I say Lion from FFXI

No, because that means they have to make assets of the characters and take away time from building assets for ff14.

building characters is building assets for ff14 derp

i'd say sephiroth...or cloud lol

We have Cid :o
He IS a real character unlike the chocobos, and he's the Cid we know from many, many FF games, an engineer, building airships, etc..not a weird crystal monster like in FFXIII..>,>'

No other characters needed, but if I had to name one, I'd say Firion (FFII), for the simple reason that he is my favorite FF character.

another one of my favorites is cecil from FFII (NA)

Would be neat to see Stiltzkin or Artemecion working in the moogle post office.

6 posts, 0 Gilgameshs.

I'm disappointed.

There was already a tiny Cid from FF7 reference. Cameos other than that would be pointless.

They should make an insane asylum in one of the major city-states, it's only occupant should be Kefka.

The lack of a pirate named Faris in Limsa Lominsa also displeases me.

well they added judges so i thinks that's a cameo lol

I'm hoping they take a path similar to FFIX and use many elements and characters from previous Final Fantasy games in subtle ways to awaken that old nostalgia. Yoshida has said that he wants to add more "Final Fantasy feeling" to the game, and I see 9 as a good example.

However, if we're talking about cameos, I'd love to see Biggs and Wedge type characters, moreso I'd love to see Phoenix incorporated somewhere in the 2.0 version as a sort of mascot.

Biggs and Wedge, nuff said.

We need a Biggs and a Wedge to start with :D

everyone wants bigs and wedge!?!

the miner brother from uldah, they be making the call backs. thats all im sayin

I just want Shiva ; ;

The Gunblade should make a cameo...and it shall appear attached to my hand so that I may slash and shoot at my discretion :D

there is a gunhalbeard!

Besides Cid, I really see no point to putting characters in XIV that have nothing to do with this game's universe or lore. I'd rather get to know and love new characters.

I would not want to see any specific characters from other FF games, because they do not belong in this world.... now more generic characters like the summons and Gilgamesh, or the like, that would be cool

As much as the Cloud/Sephiroth groupies would flock to the game for it..... they dont fit in this world and I would not want to see them in it, nor any other main FF characters.

That we don't even have access to :/

I'd like to see Zack. Cloud is just a Zack rip off and no one gives him credit. I wouldn't actually want to see a character exactly like any other character in a rpg, but maybe a character named Zack or Tidus, or whatever you want, that vaguely has black or blonde hair, and who says a little joke. Make a tidus guy who basically is just self narrating his life like the wonder years and then says "oh wait what. you were listening?!". You wouldn't really say "omg LOOK that's TIDUS FROM FFX HOLY CRAP", you would click on a npc named Tidus all curious and then get a good laugh from a joke.

Make an npc named Cloud, and all he talks about is the woes of his stolen materia, but they dont' need to spend anytime making him look like cloud.


Make an npc called Cecil who is a DRK, hinting towards drk coming out (this is if when and why), but he's always back and forth about maybe he should be a pld, and make one of the pld quests trying to convert him.

Make an npc with no iconic name that is like "Oh gah I better get me arse back to work mam', my boss, she's a real whipcracker, that Quistis"


btw, i'm a III/IV (japanese numbering) fanboy I guess, not a VII one but I'd like ideas from all games.

NAJA SALAHEEM

gilgamesh and his pet dhalmel

BRING BACK THE DHALMELS

well,, we already have darth vader doing a cameo as all-the-judges :P

A weapons shop with those famous weapons hanging on the wall will be a nice easter egg.

I would hate this.

It's basically an admission that they don't have imagination/creativity. "Oh hi guys, my name's Lion, I am from FFXI, and I am living proof that the developers were so starved for creativity that they put me in the game as fanservice for you guys!"

They should focus more on trying to make the game good in its own right, on its own merits, instead of using (and abusing) the FF brand as a crutch.

Just my opinion.

It's also bad enough that we are getting inter-server battles, etc, which destroys the fabric of the gameworld as a single entity. Inserting characters from the wrong game would just make it more weird/stupid.

Tired of this Sephiroth and Cloud crap.

Bring Ramza Beoulv, Delita, or Agrias Oaks from Tactics.
