Joining The Empire!

So its been plaguing me since i defeated the level 25 Ifrit and stood face to face with the Man clad in brilliant white armor, Imperial Legatus Nael Van Darnus. The mere presence of him had 2 shared feelings Fear, and Curiosity. He seemingly praises you for daring to challenge the Gods. Which up to this point, the people of Uldah have only seemed to make the Empire seem Evil. But for some strange reason I didn't get that sense of Evil from this man. He even went so far to hint at you joining that cause. Though him sensing that i had been corrupted by the City-states denied me that option.And upon that he saw fit to "Purify" me for lack of a better word. With that he stretched for his lance and demonstrated probably not even 1/3rd of his true power.

With that display of power, it has shown me the Might of the Empire. I would like to know if they could add and option to join Empire cause i would seriously like to gain that kind of power for myself and walk in Arm next someone like Legatus Darnus.

If they added a option like that could have penalties like you can't enter Uldah or the other starting cities. or having act as spies. so you could enter the cities still.

If they do that then it be PVP type like wow Eorzea vs empire no thanks sorry man but let's keep the storyline PVE and have awesome pvp that don't mess with other who don't like it. I don't really mind PVP i may try it but not a thing i would do 24.7.

PvP me please

nothing is wrong with a pvp story all in its own

well i can slightly agree with you point to the pvp but how about if it was only pvp instance based like wow and no open world pvp so you dont have idiots ganking all day. but back to the point. I just think its a major case of blue balls cause i usually am the kinda evil faction kinda person. like in 11 it wouldve been cool if you couldve chose to be and evil dragoon and got the black dragon with glowing red eyes. and go god i wonder if Darnus is that strong who is and how god damn strong is the Emperor/press to have men like the Black wolf or white raven serve under him.

No thanks keep the empire strictly NPC.

Don't we get to fight him in 1.23 anyway ?

well maybe not fight maybe more like flailing angerly. lol

Not to spoil anything or to rain on your parade, but if you get far enough in the main storyline scenario there's a very good reason it won't likely happen.

I'd like to go visit the Garlean Empire capital on varies spy/story missions. It would be cool if it is also a giant city with multiple layered zones with all sorts of advance technologies and inner city transportation like elevators, trains, and teleports. That would make it an ideal place to visit and be called the endgame hub.

Do et! I wants some PvPs! I will eradicate the disgusting lala race!

If you are friend of the empire, you are traitor to the motherland.
And I will stop at nothing to hunt you down and expunge you from Eorzea.

I would have to learn a new march and a new national anthem, and all the names of those dead emperors I just don't care about. I don't think i'm ready for that kind of commitment. Unless the empire is Aht Urghan.

How do you propose to do this, good sir? Traditional punting?

I think somebody has a man crush.

Punting. Smashing. Squishing, gnashing. Grind their bones - snip their toes. Cut their ears! Teach them fear! Whip them, crack them give them a bashn'!

/runawaycryyyyyyyyy!~~~~(ノдヽ)

I just want to make the simple game punt-a-lala. Very similar to kickin chicken competition from Fable, except replace chickens with lalafell's, add spikes to the game board so they dont slide and you have the best game in eorzea.

ff is always about being part of the good side in the story so it goes against what is the series is all about to join hands with the empire,remember this is not just a mmo its a ff mmo.

true but look at the ff series as of late. its been changed drasically and for worse in the most part im MY OPINION. but dont forget there are some traitors in some FF like cait sith in 7 seifer in 8. whats to say your not just playing THEIR version of FF through their eyes.

I agree .

I think it would be awesome to be able to play on the "Bad side". It would give another element of danger for the players.

I to would like to join the empire!

yes lets have more join the cause to add the empire

I'd much rather side with the Empire myself. Screw the good vs evil crap - in the end it's always about power.

One cannot be a traitor to what they've had no loyalty to.

I may kind of understand people wanting to join Gaius van Baelsar, but I really don't understand why anyone would want to join that lunatic Nael van Darnus..
Garlemald surely has an interesting political structure as we learned in the newer quests, but Nael van Darnus? He's just crazy o-O'

I smell an expansion. We'll call it, "The Empire Strikes Back!!!...for the first time....again....", or "TESB!FTFTA" for short. And seeing as how I always have to have an excuse, the Empire and all their magitek would be a great way to introduce
PUUUUUUUUUUUUPPEEEEEEEEEEET MAAAAAAAAASSSTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!
