This will probably not come in 2.2 as they haven't mentioned anything yet and 2.2 is about a week away, but I'm sure people remember that summons were suppose to "roam" around Eorzea for Free Companies to capture and use.

Square Enix has also gone on record to say that Free Companies will be able to capture Primals in the world and be allowed to summon them once before they are released back into the world for capture. As of this moment, this feature is seemingly missing in FFXIV: ARR, but we’re told that players can look forward to doing this in either update 2.2 or 2.3.
Now knowing this much information, and if this information comes to pass in patch 2.3, is this something in terms of open world content you guys been wanting? A step in the right direction? I feel that (even though some people may not agree) have been trying to do open world content ( Treasure Maps/Beast Tribes). Can't say they haven't been attempting to put open world content into the game.

The Primals roaming Eorzea is probably apart of the Main scenario, either way should be fun when it comes. I remember them saying in a live letter before the launch of 2.0 that the only open world content will be in the form of FATEs, yet we have 2 (3 if you count the potential "Roaming primals") in the game.


What do you guys think of this feature?
