Pets without SMN, BST, PUP, and DRG

[Hotohori]

A quick look through the forums and I see many people requesting that pets be introduced to the game with new classes to accompany the pets. I feel adding a Summoner or Beastmaster may feel out of place with the current settings of the world but pets shouldn't be ignored entirely. My idea basically would be to add a new element to the game of owning pets without having to be a specific class to use such. Good pet choices would obviously be a Moogle, a Mammet, a baby Chocobo and a baby Wyvern. The actual use of these pets could be similar to the function of NPC partner system in FFXI. They could rank up with you, learn new skills, interact with you and help you with everyday tasks. I even took some time to think up some quick ideas for such. There are many possibilities to what the pet can do for you to improve your play experience and many developer elements such as pet affinity or pet behavior. A player should be allowed to own all the pet types, but only able to call upon one pet at a time. Basically would be just like having a pet in real life allowing you to feed, neglect and play with a pet as any class of course. Because I own a dog and a cat does not normally make me a Beastmaster right?

Again just random ideas for a possible pet element to the game that would not be a copy of pets in FFXI. Just thought it would be fun to toss out some ideas that doesn't force having pets in the game to adding a new class just for each pet. A good player could fully utilize the element of a pets full potential and enjoy a cute partner in the game.

Oh, pets should be allowed to be named and come in various colors of course, for Moogles it would be the little ball on its head.
