I really would like to see them make the summons more interesting. I love FFXIV so I won't bash the creative content, it's actually top notch.

But Summoner feels as if it was thrown together, I appreciate the Dev making debuffers feel at home (not sarcasm), but I would have preferred they do so with die hard Final Fantasy fans in mind.

In every final fantasy, as well as the off-brand Bravely Default, summons are very epic and they actually have made me think "Where did this guy come from, what's his deal" etc.

I used to ask the Devs to consider non-primal based summons, making Eidolons that either resemble the Primals (Similar to FF Type O with "Class based" summons, IE Ifrit Class, Titan Class etc), or making summons based off of spirits of odd creatures (Carbuncle, Fenrir, Diabolos, Alexander, Anima, Unicorn etc) like Final Fantasy VI. Could even make original ones for FFXIV, but just put the same love/care you did in every other FF title.
