If there was a world event in game, that destroys all Aetherctye...

You could work on an idea involving "Mount Quests" where you travel the world of Eorzea with your loyal mount dodging various monsters and obstacles (traps on floors that heavy or bind you?) while reaching certain waypoints within the area under a set amount of time. The reward could be 5000-7000 Gil or different aesthetics for your companion. Also the point of the quest would be to get you to a certain area without spending gil but earning gil for viewing the world.

example;
(Gridania - Ul'dah: 7000 Gil, 2 Cordial)

just random ideas lol... people might like it if you could do them with party members and it might feel like Mario Kart, so maybe if you could turn it into a racing system with party members and the winner gets maybe more Gil? lol

It wouldn't be so bad for end game, but I couldn't imagine having no teleport while trying to level a class from 1 to 50. Some of the back forth they have you doing for some of the quest would make me rage quit.

well i think the NMs and HNM being taken away from the game really did kill alot of the adventure feel. there almost no reason to bother with the world because of that. People may hate the idea of long spawn times and camping but they were things that gave you a reason to play. There just needs to be some horizontal game play ideas and gear put into XIV so people don't suffer from linear mind-numbness.

I'd honestly like to see things like campaign besieged and Nyzul isle come back because they in all honesty extremely fun things and campaign and besieged actually effected the world. Really think Nyzul Isle would be a extreme enjoyed thing to bring back for the more hardcore players. I think the idea of this topic would work well with campaign but instead of them being destroyed they would fall under beastmen control if you didn't push back the attacking beastmen tribe and you'd be unable to use them. This could be used for ranking up in the missing GC ranks we've yet to get.

I'd be ok with it but tbh opposed to getting it up and running again wouldn't mind some big community quest where WHM uncover the teleport spells (like XI) have like 1 teleport per region.

Um what? We definitely don't need Teleport and Warp stuck on a single job like we did back in FFXI.

If people don't want to walk in the overworld then just let them be. Other people being capable of teleporting hasn't stopped me from running through each zone.

There are much better ways to give us a reason to play than crap mechanics like camping (which doesn't even give us a reason to play, just a reason to afk between windows).

i suppose people would agree but it would give life to the world and break the line drive that is 50>endgame>i90>patch wall. Just think some Branching out needs to be done is my point. Also to the botting comment cant stop it no matter what you do.

I think they should add a campaign type system. Just fight beastmen solo - full party out in the world. How hard is this?

[Sagittarian]

Looking at the idea being suggested, a fun way to get users to explore the world more without the use of Aether travel, I just wanted to say that we are looking into more content focused on getting players out and about.
You can imagine that Treasure Maps were created as the first idea in this vein and we're currently thinking about how to expand on that idea!

Just going to throw out my ideas:

• Chocobo races
• Capturing images of certain things for the newspapers
• Group event requiring multiple triggers around the map to be tripped within seconds of each other
• Moogle chase! - either an actual chase or a teleporting moogle that is similar to the group trigger idea
• Moogle hunt - I already see other players who will camp out somewhere inaccessible/hidden and do a shout offering gil to anyone who can find them

[Gesser]

For future expansions, a few significantly larger zones & less aetherytes are a MUST.

Please.

You have all the base mechanics to get ppl to explore. A few ideas:

- Fate engine update to more locations in world. Fates drop special potions/food/weapon or equipment augments making it worth while to play them.
- international Choco f-1 racing. Set up the more secluded areas with Choco race tracks - rankings, special prizes, etc.
- special disciple of the land gathering points and fishing areas. Again - make it worth while drops.
