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

[Esk]

Some people could care less about lore. When lore gets in the way just retcon the shit out of it. Happens all the time in MMO's.

But then why even bother with a story at all? Just line the mobs up and let people fight them where ever.
Maybe at a later point they could allow this with the fall of Ishgard, but I for one would want that to be a long way off.

Edit:

An again, The DRG from FFXI is the FFXI DRG. A lot more DRG's in FF's never had a pet.
I personally love Pet classes, but for me this is just one that shouldn't happen at least at this point in the game.

Your solution sucks just like your presumption of my motives. I'm not treating the game as if its 11-2 or whatever assine thing you're going to babble next.

It's not a presumption, it's a fact. Look at your previous post:

Because some of us want our pet back and see it in this new game, with its infinitely better graphics engine, a chance to correct a lot of the errors from 11. Also a chance to make it far more intuitive and useful then last time.

Unless what you actually mean is vastly different than what you're posting, it's a fairly clear statement.

So - because I want a wyvern back means I want x-2 completely or whatever you're babbling about? Also in that quote did I not insinuate I want a far more robust version - not a carbon copy. Effin brilliant analysis. Thanks for doing exactly what I say you would.

Nice "fact"


While you're at it maybe you could gander into that crystal ball and give me the lottery numbers.

Emm... We Never had a Wyvnn, So you want one added, not back.

This made me giggle.

Also, this thread is damn angry. Rawr.

At first I wanted to toss in my own two cents, but the 17 pages of the same ad nauseam arguments made my eyes bleed. Thanks, everyone.

Can't lie... it made me laugh too ; ;

As someone who never played XI, I think having a little dragon pet would be awesome I was considering becoming a lancer anyways, just to have a strong melee job.

If not a lil dragon, maybe an elemental, or some creature that would work with the lore better.

I actually saw this brought up earlier, or somewhere else, and it struck me as very interesting.

But I would actually be interested in seeing DRG have the capability to morph into a Dragon for "brief periods" for attack purpose. I think this would be a neat and unique mechanic to the new DRG. Now I don't mean I want this like a Druid a-la WoW. I just think in lieu of adding pets, maybe a few metamorphisis-type abilities (thus incorporating "breath" attacks with very pretty graphics) could be pretty interesting.

Besides, if it's one thing FF MMO jobs/classes lack, it's a shape-shifter.
