To each their own! I know that people like SMN in its current state. I'm just not one of them.I prefer XIV's version of SMN over XI. Like, by a lot. XI's SMN (at least in the 75 era) was boring. You summoned those avatars, they looked cool as hell, made them do a move and then released them and wait for several minutes for the commands to come off cooldown. XIV's doesn't look as impressive, but they put much more emphasis where it matters most: the master. I'd rather be a "WoW warlock clone" than a half-assed WHM that relied way too much on my subjob.
But that's just me. I would appreciate it if they do release some egi-glamours for the pets. I'm not asking for much, maybe just three to replace the egis we have. I mean, Sephirot and Ramuh egis are kind of already in the game. Add in Shiva for the third one as the Ifrit equivalent, I guess.
Because the devs were on record to say that they were working on it but stopped cold-turkey at the Carbuncles. Phoenix is nice, but it's hardly a new "egi" (or even new if you want to get technical, 80% sure it's just about a reused model from the Coil boss, which I'm sure is why they went ahead with it).
"Entitled" is threatening to unsub without its implementation and outright demanding it "or else." New egis or not are not a breaking point for most, but let's not pretend the devs haven't been stringing people's expectations along about it with past interviews.
You guys will never be as cool as you were in XI :P
Yet BRD got it's very own performance actions, so if that job can get special treatment then it's completely acceptable to ask for other jobs to get some extra attention as well. Just stop posting if you have nothing to contribute, "LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME" pretty much sums you up.
I can't speak for others in this thread but I've been playing SMN since 2.0 launch and followed Yoshida's promises with it.
He said he would give us new egi's(This was before Heavensward, he said we would have Shiva, Leviathan and another, his promises are there in interviews from that time), then that downgraded to glamour egis at the job change preview Live Letter for Heavensward..okay, now its just..nothing.
I would just prefer if he followed through. At this point in the game I don't expect anything. I think he just gets really passionate about what he wants to do and then down the road finds out with budget and time he simply can't. I wanna say he means well, so hopefully someday he will give us the Egi's. Personally though I am fine with Phoenix, or whatever.
Like because have been asking since 2015....
Well the way SE is going I imagine egis will be a relic of the past come 6.0 even yoshida mention them becoming more of a Summoner now that they reduced the use of the egis and relied more on the actual summons. I am happy with the shift in direction lol but I can see how others wouldn't be
