There once was a time where I played another MMO(not WoW) and someone mentioned that they liked the story. I replied that there was a better story in a single ffxi quest cutscene than in ALL of that MMO and was reminded of that when doing this quest. Sure it wasn't long or difficult, but it was fabulous!
Anyone else think the inn quest was hilarious? I genuinely lolled.

I immediately thought of the "Fabulous" thread in these forums when I did that quest lol. I actually wondered if SE did that on purpose but because of it.

Hildibrand must be the best character so far in xiv. I want his tux. XD

I loved it, wish more NPCs in cutscenes had memorable personalities.

He turns up in Limsa Lomensa too but he's not *quite* as fabulous - pretty damned close though.

I loved the inn quests! I love Hildibrand and his assistant (who seems to be completely taken with him).
The only thing that would make these quests better would be if the speech box appeared closer to the characters who are speaking. The "emotes" that the characters do are hilarious, but I miss them while I'm reading the box at the bottom of the screen. It might also help if some of the longer chunks of text were split up and timed to match the appropriate emote.
I'd like it if text boxes in XIV cutscenes worked more like they did in FF7. That game kept the text closer to whoever was speaking, so you knew who was talking and you could pay attention to what they were doing.
Anyway, sorry for the tangent. The inn quests make Eorzea feel more alive and interesting. I'm looking forward to more quests like these....and to more Hildibrand. ;) -

Hildibrand is one of the very few npc's that I actually remembered for 20 seconds after I finished a quest. I am hoping he shows up again! Actually, I hope we get a few more memorable NPC's that we deal with again and again.

I must say, he is quite amusing... IF there is going to be some form of Limit Break fight a la FFXI...HE NEEDS TO BE THE NEW MAAT... nothing more intimidating than seeing him waiting in the middle of an arena, making that pose....

The best one is the Ul'dah one, where you're talking to the kid and the camera moves over and shows him posing in the background XD. If he isn't in 2.0 I will be a sad panda.

I thought the Limsa one was the funniest watch the miqo'te reaction in it, had me in stitches.

The Ul'dah one was pretty awesome. I can't wait to see what they have in store for him in future quests.

03-14-2012, 05:21 AMAidenHis presence is ALWAYS Fabulous! lolQuote:

When I first saw him posing in the background of my cutscene in Ul'dah, I immediately was sure the dev team read the FABULOUS thread in this forum x)

He reminds me of the typically annoying, self-gratifying, cowardly character... the guy that always shows up all action-pumped, then when the real fight starts, he's the first one hiding behind the couch, and when everything's over, he'll be right there lying to the press about being responsible for stopping the bad guy.

I thought the face was funny, but I am still confused with this forum community's obsession with the word "fabulous," which seems to have replaced the obsession with the colored ponies.
I liked that in Limsa Lominsa he thinks the ocean is poisoned. -

He needs a cologne. Slogan- That pose, that tux, it's Hildibrand!
