Ok I know I may catch hell for this post, but I mean we are headed in this direction somewhat with other things why not do it here. So I think SE has essentially crossed the line of just putting gear in the mogstation and glam items with the whole jump potions coming eventually.
So maybe the cash shop is gona be the way to get them to put things in the game that people actually want. My suggestion is this well you can pay 18 dollars to get married and marry another character , I do not care to do this what so ever. But what I would like are companions like we have had in all other ff games, or even most other mmos today. Companion love interest always, get plenty of attention in all games that have them available why SE wants you to only have your chocbo I don't know.
So Id say if you arent going to give us these options in the game, can we buy npc companions from the cash shop from the same price as marrying another player in the game. You could make it like we change our retainers appearance we can do the same for the bought companion, and throw a few voice options there and your done. They dont even have to do combat, make it like a minion if it would cost to much, give them a mini story line also.
You can make a male and female for everyone and you can give us the options of friendship , love interest, body guard whatever it is people would like to make them. If people are buying dresses for 25 dollars, I think people would also buy companions I have no issue with cash shop and whatever else is in it, I think something like this would be a great addition. If Se doesn't have the funds to put them in the game then let us pay for them ourselves.
Please consider this SE!!

12-29-2016, 12:57 AMbswpaytonHa this is something I really want , this game beats the game I use to play in everyway, I come from swtor. But the companion system of swtor was so good tho and other people said it use to be something like that in this game. I think they could get away with just makin human size minions with appearance customization, and a few voice lines somethings better than nothing , right now we have nothing. Maybe money is the only way that we can get them to put such a thing in the game.Quote:

i'm not sure what the purpose of such a companion would be, though, and your initial post didn't really make it very clear. i'm not familiar with swtor myself, so i have no idea what this companion system of them entails... is it anything like our chocobos in that they'd help you fight? if so, i don't really see much point in them to be quite honest... im guessing such a companion would fall under the bodyguard category you speak of, but what would be the function of a "lover" or "friend" companion?
right now it seems to me that you're offering to pay 25 bucks for a glorified minion of light, that changes forms every time you summon it :/ -

We had path companions in 1.0.
Wonder if they're still alive... -
12-29-2016, 01:14 AMbswpaytonThe swtor system is pretty amazing if you have never played it I don't expect them to go that far, but like I said even if it is a glorified minion they sale dresses that people buy on the mog station for like 25 dollars I mean why not an actual companion.Quote:

What I'm suggestion is just a cheap way they can do it of course Id want something on a higher scale, but the game has been out a long time and right now all we have is a chocbo that isnt even needed unless your like level 30 or 35.
So all Im askin for is something that if you dont wana marry a player in the game to just make your own and you have the choice to rp them into your story. -

Free Aymeric companion for every purchase of Stormblood.
Make it happen, Square Enix. -
12-29-2016, 01:23 AMAssirraYou still have not said what these companions would do. All you said the swotor system is amazing which means nothing for people that have not played swotor.Quote:

Its so crazy to me how I think this is the only game I know of that you can pay to marry another real life character which is very niche, but you have no npc options at all thats so strange to me especially from a game that the centerpiece of all their stories in the franchise where companions.Quote:

Chocobo companion, already ingame
And I still hope our GC squads will also develop into real companions.
Oh, the weeding is 100% free.Quote:

12-29-2016, 01:44 AMbswpaytonIm aware of the chocobo we all have them, some people have rl gf or bf and dont want to marry a player in the game. All I'm essentially saying is where are the npc options, why isnt their any type of choice there, when almost every ff game I can think of there was a choice up to as recent as 15. So what I'm suggesting is a glorified minion I guess although Id like it to be much more but they gota start somewhere. They dont have to do anything, what do half of the items in mog station do other than a mount pretty much nothing.Quote:

But why wouldnt people like it if you look up any game that has in game marriage, or in game companion love options in the story line they tend to have 1000s of youtube views. People like these sort of things and I don't understand why a game that has romance in every one of there games is just not doing it at all in this one.
