The Tavern

[Zuellni]

If they made mini games like Triple Triad from FF8 or even just Final Fantasy Poker and Blackjack available in Taverns or Inns, I would totally go hang out there when I'm bored of gathering and crafting. =D

Speaking of minigames, I think a Final Fantasy themed Hanafuda would be an awesome minigame. It'd be more interesting than Parley as it is anyway.

A Tavern would be good..
and if we could bet on, or even participate in, PvP fights in the Gladiator pit. Even better.

I loved SWG, and it would be awesome to see one of the best parts of it make an appearance in Eorzea (in a Final Fantasy fashion, of course).

By the time Sony decimated the game with their silly redone battle system about the only thing I ever wanted to do on SWG was hang around in the tavern. A lot of dancers appreciated that too as they usually didn't get company, or at least anyone to talk to apart from when people went "buff plz".

It'd be nice to have a big place for players to sit around in and relax, or even *coughroleplaycough*. I was just thinking they could add that hunter system that was in FFXII where monsters were advertised and you go out to kill it. Could add that to go with NM's so even if you killed the NM and it didn't reward you with anything decent, you'd at least get a reward from the tavern, like Gil, guild coins of a choice or gear. Would help promote party play for lower levels as many NM's are hard to kill on your own before hitting 50.

I believe I saw some content in the D- ... I mean, [clears throat]. I believe I saw, in some dirty DAT-Digger's blog, that there were unfinished Levequests that are just what you're wishing for; orders to go out and kill a few specific NMs and report back. Might have just been a placeholder, but it all looked pretty legit.

Let's revisit the card game idea.
Or maybe a sort of chess style game.

Ooooo... I want to know more... Rurikku! Tell us more!!!!

Also the rebirth of Triple Triad would be awesome, I spent hours playing that on FFIX, to the point where'd I forget where I actually was in the story and end up spending hours running around Lindblum shouting "What am I meant to be doing???!!! >.<

Hanafuda would be pretty awesome.
(also, I just finished watching Chrome Shelled Regios. Nice name!)

Mahjong!!!

This thread is full of win.

However the best thing I think, would be to add some sort of FF in-game card game,and have it only playable in the taverns (as mentioned).

We've been shouting for some sort of in-game mini game for ever, I hope they listen to us someday.

Ah, yes, dancin in the cantina while a stormtrooper throws insults at me, good times :3
Anyway, I don't think it would be a bad idea, I can actually imagine each city having a preferred drink.
