[Suggestion] Monster Bestiary

[Kyra]

Signed, I love this idea, I wish you worked for SE lol.

I want to see something like this, something really addictive to sink my teeth into. There is nothing like this in the game atm. Sadly if stuff like this isnt in an mmo at launch it almost certainly wont ever get added. Or at the least we wont ever see anything like this for many years.

There is a reason I play final fantasy rpgs when they come out. Sadly FFXIV had very few of these reasons in it.

Maybe, one day we will see something as indepth as this beastiary/titles/cardcollecting/ingame achivments stuff. I am not gonna hold my breath though.

The only MMO ive played that had stuff like this was Everquest 2, it was truely addictive all the mini stuff you could do. From completing 100s of collections to killing mobs for titles, and it was all linked in with the player housing which was also one of the best player housing ive seen in an MMO. You would get rewards and trophies that you could display in your house.

Being the FF bestiary nerd that I am - I really love this idea! One of the few things I liked about FFXIII was the small bit of information they had about the beasts whenever you fought them and with improved UI I think it would make for a great in-game plan as well as transferring onto the Lodestone page. Hope they think about putting this in!

[SIZE=6]Integration with Materia System[/SIZE][/SIZE]

The Materia system could easilly be combined with the new Materia system to obtain special types of materia.

I think you have a error here in the OP, I'm nit sure exactly what you were going for

Not sure I follow?

That segment of the post is a possible way to integrate a bestiary into more than just one aspect of the game. Why have a feature with only one purpose when it could accomplish multiple goals.

The entire post is mainly about the insitution of a Bestiary, the rest is the communities--as well as my--ideas on how it could be implemented. Having an idea is one thing, but knowing what it could grow into and how it could effect overall gameplay is another.

Look at the sentence I quoted, you said "the materia system could be combined with the materia system." It's just a small typo. I like your idea and I thought you would like to know about the typo

I see what you did there

[Jynx]

Ahh I see now.

Yo dawg I heard you liked materia systems, so we added a materia system with your materia system so you could make materia while you system.

~Doh~

hehe, nice idea... remember this from some of the other FF games and it did give you a certain "gotta catch'em all" feeling...
Besides - our JP players are collectomaniacs, so they would definately support his as well!
