Minion Battles!!

to get a copyright, you simply need to 1) affix, 2) an original work in 3) some tangible medium. the bar for 2 is really really low. phonebooks (for those who remember what they are) were copyrightable. databases of public information are copyrightable. not the data in and of itself but in the presentation of that data.

this is not to be confused with patents which allow you to exclude others from the marketplace that develop inventions that "read on" or fall under your patent claims.

Maybe khmfdoom should start using some punctuations. It's quite a headache trying to read your posts.

I always wondered why they bothered with Minions when, instead, they could have made it so the Minions were just cards... I mean, think about it... You can get infinite numbers of certain Minions from FATEs/Dungeons/DoL/DoH/etc., then you have the super rare ones which you can only really get once. It would be pretty much exactly the same as FFVIII/FFIX card games. Do I throw Qiqirn cards, which I can make a lot of (though that might be costly, but it boosts the economy at least) at my enemy, or do I use my Dalamud card that I'd only be able to get again from beating someone else foolish enough to use it? Had the exact same dilemma with the old card games.

Maybe just like FFVIII we an get a Card ability to turn Minions into cards... Though I really would miss having that spiky red yoga ball following me around...

Patch 2.3 really needs to be sooner so we can have the Golden Saucer already.

SE has already done a pet battle pankration says hi. Last time I checked they didn't get sued for that or their whole monstrosity where you are the monster and now can do pvp with it.

Pretty sure the issue with pet battles isn't because of legal issues, but because they have no system in place that allows such, which means they gotta make it and test it which is a time consuming process. You probably won't see a feature like this until at least a new expansion.

+1 for OP^

SE: P L E A S E Turn Based gameplay mode for old FF Fans, can be minions...

(do not forget about large group of people still playing Turn Based Games (this one here)).

Sorry, little off topic, but the first thought that popped into my head:

"ASSEMBLE THE MINIONS!!!"

On topic, yes, it would be great. Completely random, no strategy, just pick one, throw it in the "ring" with another, and let them go and see who wins.

A way to start a battle is if you see someone with a minion out, there could be the challenge minion option added when you click on them.

I would disagree with it being part of a card system though. I think it should be completely separate from and in addition to a card game.

It would be a mix of my two favorite things. Final Fantasy and Pokemon. DO IT! DO IT NOW!

Companion Battling would be far cooler.
