What I mean is:

Can we get quests that aren't marked on the map (or mini-map) and only trigger by speaking with NPCs scattered throughout Eorzea? Sometimes you discover people in really out of the way places and it would be nice if talking to them triggered some kind of non-FATE event or quest line. The reward could be vanity items! Perhaps some NPCs only show up at certain times of day or weather? It could be like the sightseeing log but less specific...


I just love talking to the NPCs, and it'd be nice if something interesting happened every once in a while. It would also encourage more participation in the open world and perhaps increase foot traffic to some places that have been neglected (Old Maid's Mill, Silver Bazaar etc.)

For example, "Zombies are People Too" is the perfect kind of secret quest line! You get it from an out of the way NPC (Hab in Sagolii Desert), and it rewards you with vanity (Cactuar Cutting minion). Now imagine if it didn't show up on the map and you had to speak with him during a heat wave (perhaps the heat drove off his friends ^_^).

I would love this and it would add a lot of atmosphere!
