    FFXI Summoner also looked like the most boring class ever.

    I went and watched some videos on youtube. The player just sits in a corner/runs away as the pet does EVERYTHING. There are literally 20 second intervals of the player pressing no buttons, and is still winning. Why do people want this back? So you can summon a pet and then go make a sandwich as the game plays itself?

    That being said, the designs of the current egis are not the greatest. However, the Ramuh egi does look closer to what the OP wants, just a human sized version of the full primal. (Assuming they use the models from The Striking Tree fight.)

    Those digimon egis look terrible..............
    I just wish they would give us the option................the option to choose egi or a different more real version of the primal. Call it "glamour your egi" or something...but they all look like toys right now.

    I wouldn't mind seeing new egi models but they'd have to tie it in with the lore so it would probably be a later level trait with the description of "mastery of summoning allows you to channel more of a primals essence without being tainted by it" or something to that regard.

    That's always been my thought on it, that when a cap increase comes, it might deal with us learning more on how to control the egi, thus transforming them to show they have been enhanced, sure hope anyway

    Without going as far as to summon the actual primal, think it could have been better if the egi were more impressive than the first ladybug you meet around the cities.
    It seriously looks like something went wrong during the summon, I'm so sad each time I see Ifrit egi's fully exposed spine lacking half of his body or garuda egi's broken back that I want to put them out of their misery.

    Also laughed during the smn quest when you got told that the egi is the picture of the primal that remain in your mind, made me feel like:


    Well toning down the sacrasm, I think it could have been best to make them look at least like when Titan summon his egi, bit bigger with colors more close to the primal than a plain glowing texture.
    Really hope one day SE will going back on what they said and try to put a bit more work on the Egi.

    XI is turn based, XIV is not - Logically anything people "would want back" wouldn't be in the same design, but not so wildly different that they'll be something extremely foreign in design as well.

    They're actually exactly the same just Titan's Egis don't glow yellow like ours
    Are you sure? titan's egis is not bigger than our egis?


    anyways i'd like for my egis to have the same look of the primal but just smaller than it and everything will be cool <3 . also, i completely agree with Tupsi on this fragment thing.

    Actually, XI is a RTB system and so is XIV.

    XI is not turn based.

    Whatever version of crab you may be fighting at the moment does not stop attacking until your party has input their commands and then you all exchange blows.

    Slow doesn't make it turn based, it just makes it slow >_>

    Bravely Default, FFTA2, FF1 are what I would consider examples of a game that is turn based. They can say FFXI is turn based but I've never looked at it that way.
