Thank You!

I wanted to start this thread to add some positivity to the General Forums. We can use it as a place to say "Thank You" to the dev team for the things we really appreciate.

I am going to start off by saying:

Thank you for adding Fishing. I've been playing the game since Beta, and have never really truly sat back and admired the scenery in this game until now.
Gazing off into the distance at Pharos Sirius glowing fiercly at night near the Aleport Lighthouse.
Looking at the tiny purple flowers where I sit that have quite a bit of detail for just being game flora at the edge of the cliff in Switchperch.
Watching the water flow down from the waterfalls as Coeurls stalk absently in the distance at Fool Falls in the Shroud...

Just amazing and beautiful to look at while you cast your rod hoping to break your record fish size and grinding out levels.

On another note for detail, I love that you can /sit while you fish and pull out a small stool. It was fun to imagine my hulking Roe breaking the stool from sheer weight, haha.

Who else can share some appreciation for the clear devotion of the dev team?

I love the graphics in this game. That is the main reason why I chose this game over all the other ones out there.

I just wish the clouds moved.

I love the world, I wish it can be more explorable, like being able to swim, for example. Secret spots, and that stuff. Yeah, it sounds like GW2, but their dev team did a great job when it comes to exploration. I'm in love with the music. There're some tracks that are breathtaking, like The Praetorium BGM for example (Not to mention Ultima's BGM).

I really like the feel of the game, it's very relaxing. Of course, Final Fantasy music is always good for the mood. I could just listen to that DoL Leve music all day to relax lol.

I tried to get into ESO, been in every beta session and I even bought and tried it for 30 days, but in the end I came back here XD

Gotta say, now that I max all DoW/DoM classes for months, I begin to appreciate more of the scenery around. I never realized how beautiful the Burning Walls/Burgundy Falls area was until recently. I had to camp a FATE in there for my animus book and the views are breath-taking, even made friends with some random Japanese couple and now we did dungeons and stuff together XD

I agree on the music guys. Soken and Uematsu's work is incredible. I am a HUGE fan of the soundtrack in this game.

Anyone else have some positivity about the game they'd like to share?

I love the simplicity of meeting your friends in game. For example, I went to New Gridania the other day to meet with a few friends and wait for our new friend to "get off the boat" so to speak, so we just sat around in the Adventurers Guild, found a table, and just chilled in /say

We met a few people who joined the conversation and it was a whole lot of fun. So I guess this is a two part thank you.

Thank you Devs for thinking of a ton of great "chill" spots
AND
Thank you COMMUNITY for being extraordinarily righteous at times :P *shout out to Cactuar*

Swimming may be coming later after Flying as Yoshi would like both added

Whoever decided to add the snowball throwing mechanic deserves an award. Mentioned in my linkshell that I've only seen real snow once in my life, so I really like Coerthas... Half the linkshell ported over and we had an impromptu snowball fight complete with teams and on the spot rules. It was a totally unexpected community moment and just so much better than snappy PUGs and people snarking at each other in shout.
