Adult Content, Can I have it?

[HiirNoivl]

I think the word is "intense" (I must admit that some Grimm fairy tales are quite intense for children's stories)

I would love some intense looking mobs and gear. Dark, oozing, spikes. Terrifying glowing eyes. And that ROAR...

Wait did I just describe Ifrit? Naw... Ifrit ROARS like me getting out of bed. Ha!

But you know what? Intense, dark and terrifying is just as much about presentation as it is about artwork. But SE would never think about just throwing around some Nasty NMs without so much as a word other than, "Strange happenings have been spotted around Eoreza. We urge our beloved adventurers to exercise caution..."

And then throw some massive flesh-eating devil worm into one of the many caves around Halatali. (Boy I would scream...) and that it would move through those many caves around Halatali... and pop only under the gaze of the full moon... and devour people who were carelessly ignorant of the dark glowy eyes that peered at them from the dark. Or perhaps, if the ventured into the tunnels and turned the corner and BAM! there it was.

That's far too adult and sinister and evil for Final Fantasy.

Oh no... SE would never do anything like that.

Remind me to avoid living in your neighborhood. D'=

Now, if a a pudding happened wake up with glowing (or bloodshot..) eyes while ooozing some... pudding..?.. and some dark shadows under its eyes... that might fit your description for an intense mob as well as seem more like the current XIV bestiary.

Speaking of weird eyes, I wish I had a close-up shot of a burble. :x They're so CREEPY. Definitely the most "intense" mob in-game.
