    Hover Text for Weather Effects

    Hey folks!

    So as you know, there are a bunch of different weather effects in the game. Many of them are commonplace that we find in our very own world (Sunny, Cloudy, Rainy, Thunderstorms, Snow, etc), but then there are some that are exclusive to Eorzea (Electrically-Charged Odin Weather, Darkness Weather, etc.).

    This is just a very very minor thing, but I was wondering if it would be possible to be able to hover a mouse cursor (or move a gamepad cursor to the weather icon in PS3/PS4) to put a name to the kind of weather in an area. This is mostly for flavor text, but it could be utilized later on for certain events.

    Thanks!

    Weather's supposed to be getting expanded upon in 2.28 or 2.3. It might include this.

    Tomorrows forecast: Dread with a hint of Purple!

    I honestly would just like to know what the intended name is for some of these effects in general.

    Always remember the Silver Rule:
    "Treat others as they treat you!" ...or something like that.

    I would love this. I was so surprised the first time I hovered my game pad mouse over the icon and nothing.

    I am confused because I seem to have a memory of knowing that the weather effect during Odin's FATE being called "Hopelessness", yet in the few times since then, during the same FATE, I can never remember how I found that out. I am on the PC version. How did I find this out? o_o (I didn't play in 1.0)

    Lily: Are you afraid of my kiss?
    Jack: I'm afraid you'll break my heart.
    Lily: Then still your heart... You are dear to me as life itself.

    Odin's weather is technically called "Hopelessness" :P
