    I believe they'll make the newer Egis sharper looking because of the power we might gain in expansion content but it'd be silly to go back and fix something that isn't broken because only <1% of the playerbase doesn't like the way it looks. Or they could ignore it all and keep doing what they are doing (which is probably the game plan anyway).

    I will not go quietly into the night. . .

    :P. I know it is unlikely since making a model does have a cost to it, but against the odds I'll hope anyways. I'm not illusioned on that lol, I know devs have said no XD - but with time and just making it a point they "may" do something different later.

    Even if it is just a matter of previous FF games and current MMORPGS out there. Obviously previous FF summoner summons are easy to say they're bigger since.. well they're huge lol (too big for a multiplayer game), but you can look at summon pet classes in other mmorpgs with a respectable size and powerful looks and it can be seen that has worked well before.

    From that I feel like they should at least get a "competing edge", but of course it's mostly an (my) opinion on what looks better/more consistent with other FF games.

    Still as time goes on (expansions) I think it would become more likely to either revist or add mechanics for greater looks, since Egis happen to be a core that they will likely improve upon with abilities (can't imagine they'll stop adding new abilities or traits that work with the Egis).

    No idea where you got your percents from, but i think it'd be the other way around. Not sure why anyone would even argue about making them look better. But whatever makes you sleep better i suppose.
