NPC romance

Pft yeah, ya all go after mister ilvl5 armor. I'm going after Lolorito. He is going to die soon anyway and I'll inherit all the gils.
Heck, I would roll an alt just to inherit the Mirage Trust from Teledji Adeledji.

My first thoughts were Minfillia or Y'shtola... maybe Yda... but as scions they end up in the line of fire too often to be safe choices. I remember doing the GSM quests and really liking Serendipity. So ill go for her. Maybe a little ditzy, but genuine funny and cute is good enough for me.

Yes please

[DreamAngel-Ren]

What did she mean by this?

It means she's into Lalafell ;D

[saber_alter]

I thought Y'shtola was the most popular NPC?

not everyone wants a waifu, need to rep husbando too.

as much as i would like this (especially if it were like a bioware style set up.) i don't think it would be a good idea. it might restrict the writers from killing off a character for plot reasons.

What did she mean by this?

"Smallfolk" is just a fancy word for commoner.

Pretty sure Krille is flirting with me in all the cutscenes we share, might just be for male lala though.

I would like to have this option but with NPC's similar to the Adventuring Fellows we had in FF11. Each personality type would have their own story line. we would be able to level them up by taking them out to fight with us. and if a player wanted to romance them they would have that option appear depending on how the player interacts with the companion. i think this is an an area that has so much potential. there are a lot of players that don't want to marry another player in game for many reason. but this gives the rest of us that option.

Ironically enough, the original version of FFXIV (1.0) had something vaguely similar to both FFXI's Adventuring Fellows and what the OP would like with the Path Companions, who were a npc fighter that Minfilia assigned to the player when they joined the Path of the Twelve (the predecessor organization to the Scions of the Seventh Dawn). I'm not sure about other race and gender combinations but the miqo'te female Path Companion most definitely was in love with the player's character based on her constant flirting and innuendos (the Path Companion had dialogue in certain story cutscenes) - alas the player couldn't reciprocate those feelings, mostly the player's character just smiled back at them and said nothing.




Sadly the Path Companions were abandoned when Yoshi took over development of the game and were completely replaced in ARR with the chocobo companion, and as the new Grand Company squadrons are going to be able to be called upon in battle by the player in Stormblood, I think SE have all but scrapped any possibility of the Path Companions returning.
