Can we have blood added for 2.0?

Says the adult in the room... Tsk tsk

You basically just tried to insult me by calling me an adult. That's like trying to insult me by calling me "male."

I wouldnt mind seeing blood but I could live without. When I think of blood in a game hack and slash style games are what I think of and it would be pretty interesting if square could pull that off but if this was added I'd be in support of a blood toggle or slider feature. But what I would really like to see the most is the more damage your gear takes dents,rips,burn marks, and anything else would form on your gear but I think a lot of work would have to be put into it but itd be funny to see a mage in a burnt robe and ask them if they fought Ifrit.

I think ultimately seeing this type of detail.

Sweat from hot areas.
Singes from flames on our body, hair, clothing, and armor.
Gear wet when fighting in the rain, hit with a water spell, surfacing from water.
Hair and cloth blowing in the wind, tattered or shredded with aero.
Frizzy hair from lightning.
Slash marks, crushed armor pieces, dents in the shield, signs of true wear and tear.
Snowflakes in our hair or in our cloth.
Footprints in the snow, desert, or mud.

If these were implemented, I think I would not mind seeing grease, dirt, bruises, blood, and scars on our characters to signify the exhaustion and defeat or perhaps a desperate victory.

Im not one of those immersion junkies but if that kind of detail was put into the game I could honestly say I feel immersed.

Forget WoW, this is FF XIV
If FF XIV have blood ingame, it need to look realistic, not just red tomato juice. And I bet you don't get a T rating with realistic blood rains.

In cutscenes, ok. But not during the normal fights.

If it were realistic, it wouldn't have blood rains. It would have a splash or two here and there. Also, it wouldn't have catgirls, Galka-clones whose name I can never remember, elves or lalafells. They can add blood and be just fine. That said, I don't think it needs blood. If I want bloody gaming, I'll go play some Dragon Age or Skyrim.

Oh and more brown textures. Definitely not enough brown.

No no no
Ul'dah just needs more bloom

a little splat of blood is better than nothing we dont even a ouch animation.

[ArkNova]

I wouldn't mind it if it wasn't exaggerated like in an action game; ie. having a bunch of blood fly out every time I hit a mob.

I second this. People read add blood and jumped to the conclusion if you got blood itd be this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ-Alji8Hhw

Not something over the top but I wouldnt mind a little blood with my cuts
