From what we know of the current story (and ifrit fight), what do you think is the cause of us fighting the Primal Moogle? It just seems like something thrown in for fun since we don't know too much about the moogles.
I'm just curious as to what others think would be the reasoning, yes it'll be explained when it's here, but it's something different from the usual banter posted over and over lately.
For those that don't know, in FFXI we also fought against moogles, but the reasoning there was one rose up and decided "Hey, we're slaves no more" and well, beat down ensues.
Just a preview of that fight.

I have no idea, but I can not wait for this fight.
I hope they have some really crazy mechanics during the fight ..
I would like to see him cast classic spells like miniature and toad on us. -

The Moogles, discontent with inadequate representation for a franchise they were once on the box art and cart cover for, are back with a vengeance. Or for vengeance. Whatever.

I really love this Boss battle theme, the Beginning gave me a shot of Adrenaline Rush and the Goosebumps...
I sure hope some kind of theme in 2.0 or even before hand like a Major Boss battle to try to stop Meteor something like that.

Moogle are Beastmen, they hold authority over the Black Shroud and now they are pissed at random Silver Clad Generic Empire burning down their home and stealing their flowers (You know, (A Moogle Banquet)). So they summon their Primal and strike back at filthy lowly "non-beastmen". Don't mess with the Moogle Dynasty.
Actually, if you do the side quests/class quests you can see Moogles are being treated unfairly despite being the boss of Black Shroud. Enough is enough >_> -

I predict just a really pissed-off Moogle.
-
10-21-2011, 11:13 AMJennestiaYeah, I wouldn't be surprised. This is one of the instances I wish they would release lore buildup to in-game events like they used to with the vanadiel tribune.Quote:

If you are wondering why the moogle battle itself is being put in, its because they thought Titan and Leviathan (which were planned) could be too offensive considering what happened in Japan.

What I think the moogle primal would look like:

The moogles are angry that the imps stole all their pumpkin cookies, and that we ate them all instead of giving them back.

Good question, Jennestia.
I was wondering that myself when I first read about it. What could possibly tick off a moogle that much?
One thought was, perhaps they're fed up with people screwing with and upsetting things in the Black Shroud, and one of them finally goes postal, vigilante style. You can see how it freaks them out when the elements are upset in the Grid. storyline.
Whatever it is, I'm sure it'll be interesting. -
10-25-2011, 08:51 AMAnswaNaw, the thread is about how the story would tie in, ingame. ^^bQuote:

BOT quest up to lvl 36 (A Moogle's Bouquet, not Banquet sorry >.<), Unorganised Crime side quest, LNC quest up to lvl 36 and to a lesser degree CNJ quests. You can see quite well that Moogles are generally respected by Gridania folks, as they taught the Five Races how to communicate with the Elemental and hence Conjury, but are tasty snacks in Ul'dah black market and being treated like common Beastmen by Imperials.

10-25-2011, 03:43 PMSeirra_LanzceI blame Ul'Dah because they secretly smuggle off moogles from the Black Shrouds!Quote:

They find out people want to keep them locked up in a small room all day and so rebel against their prospective captors.

I refuse to kill a moogle.

10-25-2011, 09:43 PMMariyaShidou
But the Moogle is happy to kill YOU.

It might be simply a pissed off moogle. Yet, SE does take a more light-hearted or comical approach to moogles, so it might be something more comical than serious. The fight in FFXI makes me think both ways on the argument, but I am sure whatever story line reasons they give us, it will be good.

I think he is pissed at Square for them never making a game with a moogle lead character. I share with him that anger.
