Name little things that bug you

- Artificial walls.

I hate them. They are in a lot of places where they shouldn't be in ARR areas. So many potential places to explore and places to climb to potentially see some great vistas are all blocked by invisible walls.

- NPC only animations and gestures.

There are many emotes, gestures and animations that NPCs have that I wish we could make use of such as:

• Standing idle with a smoking pipe
• Standing or sitting down with a bottle of liquor
• Stances that show you eating or drinking while standing or sitting
• Conversational idle stances while standing or sitting
• Sleeping in any location
• Lean against a wall with arms folded, one foot resting against the wall, etc.

- Not being able to fly in ARR areas.

Yes, I have read the dev response to this. Though I will continue to wish the dev team could hire more personnel to take on miscellaneous tasks such as adjusting the ARR areas for flight.

But it's so easy to read?
It's even based on English; think of all the poor Japanese/everyone who can't read English who can't easily read the in-game signs.

It's not easy for me to read. It's a complete eyesore.

And you aren't actually reading it, you're using pattern familiarization. "That word looks strikingly like it says 'Revenants Toll' doesn't it"

I promise you if they wrote paragraphs in it, you would have issues reading it, but I digress...

I just want maps in clear text not eorzean characters

Fairly certain some of these have been brought up, but...

1. Riding a mount with nice music then riding through a FATE and having the fanfare shatter your immersion. Double points if it's a boss FATE, since you no longer get to listen to your mount's theme.
2. Having enemies you tagged in a FATE at the end lock you out of your mounts since you never disengaged, even though the FATE is already over.
3. Old animus book quest complaint: having your target enemies be tagged as FATE mobs even when they weren't spawned with the FATE nor count towards FATE credit. Bonus points if you were engaged with the mob prior to the FATE spawning.
4. Questionable choices in content to bring back for the new relic. Crystal Tower series is dead and SE thinks we need to revisit old beast tribes?
5. Mobs that aggro you from as close to their leash range as possible, meaning you end up running twice the distance before you can remount.
6. First-wipe droppers in DF. Is it really quicker to eat 30 minutes than to give it another shot, ESPECIALLY if we got far enough for Echo? Granted, in some instances I regret not joining them...
7. Gate-drop droppers in DF. Again, is it really quicker to eat 30 minutes than to possible run whatever "horrible" dungeon you landed in Roulette? I've rarely had dungeons that people were incompetent to the point of taking 40+ minutes. Of course, emergencies happen, so I'm probably judging too quick.

If only they put clear-English labels on top of the maps their artists worked so hard to make.

[seraphuslol]

Have to be zoomed in on the map enough to see the plain English text on landmarks.

It's annoying to me. Simple.

You do?

[seraphuslol]

Yeah, on bigger maps if you're zoomed out more the text is gone.

Also the actual signs in game like Revenants Toll and the entirety of golden saucer.

So what you really hate is immersion. That a world is filled with its own elements.

[Vinta]

Also why is it that so many quests have you running around to tell people stuff but you know they have linkshells......

Because Eorzea - nay, Hydaelyn - is a place where face-to-face communication is still valued, unlike modern-day Earth where people are afraid to look up from their cell phones.

[seraphuslol]

Nah, I just hate the eorzean alphabet.
