Lords of Verminion - How to Revitalize

[HakuroDK]

As the title says, I want to see Lords of Verminion revitalized, and here are some of my ideas on how to do that.

1. Reduce MGP cost of participation from 100 MGP to 10 MGP, same as Chocobo Racing.
2. Grant partial MGP reward for participation rather than 0 MGP for losing.
3. Increase MGP rewards for victory.
4. Increase MGP rewards for Challenge Completion.
5. Enable Lords of Verminion queues across Data Center, not just Zone or Server.

To be honest it just feels too sluggish to me whenever I pla it.

We can't play it while queued for Duty finder, right? I think that's what deters me. Also its a pain to navigate on console when compared to mouse control.

I'd start with allowing people to queue from anywhere and removing the entry fee entirely.

Not that I'd play it then - I simply don't like the minigame. But it makes it much more convenient and we all know how much of a barrier convenience can be for people.

My recommendation to revitalize:

1. Search code for Lords of Vermilion
2. Highlight said code
3. Delete
4. Hack a Pokemon game
5. Copy
6. Return to FFXIV code
7. Paste

Lord of Verminion isn't even a little fun.

Oh man, could you imagine if they had made a pokemon-style game instead of that abomination? XD We'd probably still play pokemon instead, but the idea is amusing.

and having minions evolve and unlock more minions, making it something you could want to do for collection's sake as well, wouldn't be a bad idea.

Why would you risk losing a match to get into a dungeon if your queue was ready mid-match?

Yea I gotta say I want to get into LoV, but the game itself doesn't feel right.It's just not fun. the controls (using a gamepad at least) are terrible. I dont think increasing rewards or letting you play while waiting for DF will help either. Just scrap it and re-imagine it please.

I think Lord of Verminion is very well planned out lol, very competitive and fun if you play the right people, but like others said, controller controls are iffy, and it's impossible to find competitors because it's only on your server and in the room with you lol... The chocobo racing/ LoV (not tournament matches) should be added to duty finder and data center wide
