Bring on Personal Wings! [Beyond Heavensward Thread]

But again..we already have it?

Those are completely different to what the OP posted.

You can find decorative "wing" motifs on dreadwyrm gear as well, and that is perfectly fine as they are not insanely huge (i.e. they remain within the boundaries of your character). I have no issues with those.

Well golly gee it's a good thing we are all the warriors of light then heh?

Yes, too bad that apparently the world is PACKED FULL of warriors of light. One might wonder why Hydaelyn needs so many to counter a handful of emo Ascians. Maybe we are not that poweful after all. :/

But no, story wise, there is only ONE warrior or light, and that is you. For gameplay reasons this is hardly possible tho.
Thus, having the world full of "Chosen Ones" would be slightly ridiculous.

Ya, that is why I offered it as a suggestion and alternative. I don't want Aion wings in this game either, as much as I love them..they do not belong in FF world, IMHO. The subtle wings though on gear like that, I feel are okay. yupyup

I think that is the closest OP is going to get. I highly doubt the devs would ever put in this big wings like OP suggested...heh.

Uh, you're contradicting yourself. First sentence, you state the obvious "world is full of warriors of light", and then you say "having the world full of chosen ones would be ridiculous". Well, duh. It already IS full of chosen ones, and it already IS ridiculous. Wings are where you personally seem to draw the line for completely arbitrary reasons.

Just admit that you don't like wings, instead of pretending to have a lore argument.

Uh, you're contradicting yourself.

You clearly misunderstood what I meant.

Let me elaborate again for you.

Yes, the world is "full of warriors of light". That is a gameplay need. Lore wise, there is only one warrior of light. The one who speaks with Minfilia & co. You.

Of course you are special inside. Incidentally there is nothing physically special about you (unless a tattoo if you are legacy).

But again, for gameplay purposes, the world is packed full of warriors of light.

Having such a huge amount of "special people" running around with stupid things like oversized wings would completely be idiotic. At the moment, the lore implies that YOU are the warrior of light, while ALL THE OTHERS are just "adventurers".

Also yes, I do not like wings and yes, they have no lore behind them.
