Can we have blood added for 2.0?

I miss that. We are playing final fantasy, nit hello kitty!

what? you don't know about the blood code?

This doesn't need to become an edgy MMO.

They don't want to get an M rating from the ESRB I bet.

WoW has blood and it still has a T rating, along with the StarCraft games.

I don't see how blood could push this game up to M. O.o

Forget blood, I want to be able to hit people and make them throw up like Street Fighter II.

I don't mind not having blood, its a nice touch but I'm more interested in their priorities being elsewhere.

FF7 was epic just because of throats being sliced!!!

I wanna play as Hildibrand and cause my enemies to explode in rainbow-glittered confetti.

When did Final Fantasy ever have blood in it?

No really, the only ones I can think of iare in a cutscene in VIII where Squall gets his scar and one in IX where Kuja hurts his head.

PLEASE ADD IT!

You've got that on Final Fantasy Type-0 already! :(

And it's cool.

Yoshida:

"In contrast with other MMORPGs, I’m seeing a trend towards…shall we say, FF-ness? Ours being a Japanese game, the result seems to tell us that players are prioritizing cuteness, something which I noted with great interest."

No blood.

...why...?

Still, I'd cuddle with that dead chocobo.

It would be fine to add blood. It doesn't have to be gallons of blood and gore like there is in Dragon Age or Mortal Combat or anything. You could make it a lot more subtle, and perhaps example only for critical hits.

At the same time, I don't really care if we get it or not. It's would be a pretty unimportant change to me.

What are you talking about? This is FF, in this world people bleed numbers.

Blood in Final Fantasy?

Yeah, I remember lots of blood when Sephiroth killed Aerith, or Shuyin and Lenne were shot to death. Exdeath killing Galuf? Blood everywhere, I do remember that. Not to mention that every time a unit died on Final Fantasy Tactics, blood spilled on my screen.


..

Oh wait.

Because every final fantasy is exactly like the one before.

Because adding blood obviously makes every game better.

I thought 11 had blood in it when you got hit, or took an crt.

It had some purple stuff, not sure if you could call it blood.

I DEMAND A BLOOD /TOGGLE!!!

TOGGLE EVERYTHING :D

+1 for blood.

What exactly do you expect blood to contribute to the game with, if you don't mind telling us?

Forget WoW, this is FF XIV
If FF XIV have blood ingame, it need to look realistic, not just red tomato juice. And I bet you don't get a T rating with realistic blood rains.

In cutscenes, ok. But not during the normal fights.

HAHA MATURE GAMES FOR MATURE GAMERS, SUCH AS MYSELF!

Games don't need blood to be good.

We also need more grimdark because it's not edgey and mature enough for the call of duty audience.

Oh and more brown textures. Definitely not enough brown.

This is Final Fantasy not Ninja Gaiden.

No one would complain about animation lock if it entailed ripping out spines and smashing skulls. True story!

It's bad enough seeing a guy riding an invisible chocobo.

Of course I'd like see him with no arms and head! :)

Let's add fatalities, too.

Some people here have obviously psychic problems, if they want blood that hard.

Do not let its death be in vain. Be one with the chocobo. Eat it. Enjoy it. Mourn as it leaves you.

I am against the implementation of blood in FFXIV.

I generally shy away from blood. Nose blood, cranky blood, can't be helped. Would prefer not to see fantasy blood flying all over the place if can be helped. And most important, IF blood is implemented, the OPTION option option to turn it off.

I mean, real life-wise, it's not everyday we see violence-based blood or human gore.

Nope, I'm no psychic here.

Blood is kewl.

I hope there is no blood in combat. After doing hours of hours of non-stop combat I do not want to have to see endless and grutitous gore and blood. It serves no purpose and just gets yucky after a while.

Blood in the rendered cut-scenes is okey if it is there for artistic purposes (rather than gore). You know, the classic fencing match before a tiny scrape across the cheeck unleashes slow-motion droplets of blood. Or the wound on the armour if taken a fatal injury.

But let's not run towards gore and yuckyness please.
