Namingway Card items?

Yeah, the whole being able to change your gender but not your name thing is just silly. Any update on this would be awesome!

I was reading through the Fantasia details again and it says that you can't change your day of birth, patron deity, starting class or name. While I wasn't able to change my starting class or name, I was able to change my day of birth and patron deity when I used mine recently. (about a week ago) Not sure if that was a bit of a glitch or if it means they are currently making changes to the way Fantasia works? And if so, maybe the name change will happen? All speculation though....

/cry

it isnt a glitch, the only things you can't change with Fantasia are your starting class and name. it has always been that way

I totally agree with you there, at the very least bit they should let you change your Forname(first name) even if they don't want you to change your Sirname

i'm really looking forward to a name change thing being added. been thinking for a while that i wanted to make some small adjustments to mine to make it better. (my name is sort of lore friendly, but i wanted to make it more so.)

Hm. Interesting. I guess I never noticed it before when I used my other ones. But still, the actual details when you buy it says you can't. Anyway. I have attempted to talk to support about this, hoping to get an updated answer, though I have definitely heard that said support is not the best. We will see how it goes once I get my response :|

Has any dev looked over this? There are so many people who would like a name change, because if you can change gender with phantasia.... a name change would greatly benefit the masses! Plus it's more easy money for SE....

I find it kinda silly how we can't get a response from a dev/rep about a game changing issue, where the topic about "male body hair" - a cosmetic aesthetic - that really only applies to male characters (who are interested) has gotten a reply, whereas the name changing issue, which could be applied to essentially every player in the game (since we all get a free phial of phantasia after 1 month sub anyway) hasn't seen an official word. It's cool if we can ask a GM or something and get a personal response, but to get something in this thread by an admin would at least give some sort of official insight on the status of this subject.

For those who are worried about players on your friendlist/black list changing names: in the help section of the menu, you will find an answer to your question - If a player on your friend list/black list changes his/her name, then he/she will have the name changed on the list, and will stay on your list. Thus, you have NO WORRIES of blacklisted individuals taking advantage of this name change system, nor RMTs.

I am sure we'll get a response eventually since this is probably something many people throughout different countries want anyways. They gave us Fantasia potions.

I wonder how difficult it'll be to do the same with Namingway cards? They already have a system that checks if the server you're on has the same name as what you want. Also, they have a system in that checks to see if retainers have the same name. Eitherway, the way they programmed and codded thier game makes these things difficult to implement for them.

There was a reply from a Dev, but it was maybe a year ago? This thread itself is about a year old too. It seems to occasionally get a boost of comments. An updated reply would be greatly appreciated. All I got in response was that they will pass this information on the development team. Which is what I expected, but hopefully they will actually do so.

I know a dev replied in a one one on one situation when a player contacted them about it, and said player posted the reply on this forum, but I don't think there was an actual post from a dev him/herself in this forum....
I've been keepin up with this for a bit, and I read through a hefty amount of pages, but I could be wrong and missed it.

It would just be really friggin nice and logical to get some sort of response, since they do address name changes in the help menu when you access it from the game - yet there is currently no option to actually change your name...

[Melinabean0]

You are correct. What I saw was a community rep posting about an "answer" in another equally old thread. And then there was the post from the player who had the one on one conversation. My bad there.

But yeah, seriously. Just make a name change system, guys.
