Dragoon is coming, but will our gallant companion be joining us?

Misnomer. Its not even close to impossible from the fact they're adding pet classes and said they're doing re-writes to the story to help recreate the jumbled world. If enough people asked for it they certainly could fit in wyvern.



Again, absolutely and unequivocally meaningless. 11 had them and 9 did as well (in her own way). The "tradition" can and does modulate game per game.



It was inaccurate but I don't care in the sense of the overall picture. I want them - simple as that so I will express my desire just as you are express yours to not have them.

so what im getting from your tone at this point

"i dont care about the past i want one, and i dont care how we get them"

fact: pet classes are not currently possible, yes they are looking into them, but fact is fact, they are not currently possible and they wont be possible in near future

also you obviously fail to see my points, never once did i say i was against them, im arguing the point that they are not REQUIRED in order for it to be a dragoon class, id personaly be fine with it either way

Are you trying to be dense?

FACT: They're doing re-writes. If people expressed their interest it is certainly possible no matter which way you want to cut it.

I see your points - you keep saying its not possible and that they aren't a part of the series lore. Both of which you are miserably wrong about. Stop trying to save face.

I did and answered them accordingly. Don't know why anyone would get upset over this.

Have this

Agreed, it's pretty ridiculous. It also kind of clues you in on how much FF history they know. Just because XI did it doesn't mean every other FF game must. Dragoons are generally distinguished by the Jump ability and wielding spears of some sort, not by having a wyvern pet.

Here's the thing: Lore wise, Dragoons have always had ties to Dragons in some way -- FFXI manifestated that tie and gave us a Wyvern pet because it's the wyvern we saved. They're not called Dragon Knights simply because it sounded cool, they're called Dragon Knights because they're linked to Dragons in some way. Some FFs show this better than others.

FFXI is the only other online iteration of FF, which a deeper backstory for Dragoon in particular, so naturally, you'd think with the advent of new lore into FF pertaining to DRG, they'd follow it up somehow because every FF game with Summons, Bahamaut has always been a 'leader' which followed suit in XI as well.

Please, please, please for the love of all things holy graduate from your infatuation with FFXI. I agree that dragoons need some relationship with dragons, and I'm sure the writers in this game will give them that. Dragons already have an important role in the lore in this game, so it's not like the potential isn't there.

What does this have to do with anything? It's a reference point because it's Square Enix's other ONLINE FINAL FANTASY GAME -- it's not hard understand. Unless you mean to tell me WoW or Rift has a better Dragoon implementation in their MMO than Square did in their last MMO? Not to mention, if you've read a lot of the recent interviews, Yoshida himself even references "kind of like FFXI" or "Like seen in FFXI" because it's their last MMO. It's not infatuation, it's simply because it's something they've already done before and somehow XIV stepped 100 yards backwards.

Which exactly was my point, so the first part of your post seemed more like a personal attack than anything.

[grandm]

they have lore with dragoons and dragons in FF14. dragoons come from ishgard. ishgard don't seem to like dragons much. it seems to me dragoons will be dragon hunters in FF14 lore

If I don't get a little blue Wyvern, I am going to rage endlessly.

[Krausus]

no thanks on that wimpy ass looking wyvern, that they would probably nerf us to use it. I wouldnt mind some kind of attack that involves a wyvern swooping in from the sky but I dont want that thing following me around. Lancer is going to be a much more darker looking character in XIV, a cute baby wyvern makes no sense. And like others said almost every FF title has Dragoon like class, but only FFXI had the pet.
