about egi's models

[Rumpelstiltzkin]

No, but it does mean the horse is officially dead. Please stop beating it.

Because developers can't ever change their mind.

[Akiza]

They should change the look of the Egis so they are on par with other mmorpgs summons

[Exstal]

Unless the change is reasonable, I'll always be there to tell you why it's a stupid idea.

Please look forward to it.

Oh I know they can, the last part of my post reads as "or they will have to change the first three."

I wasn't meant to be aggressive to you sir, saw the last part of your post I just wanted to show examples of what SE did in the past about games and revamps.

I would most likely be more aggressive after reading things like below though.

"I've never seen nor heard of anyone complaining about the egis in game" .... *snip* .... "/troll" .... *snip* .... "1%" ...."aka-resume : I'm sooo right and I can prove it with advanced maths"

On a side note I respect your opinion Dwill even if it seems to not be the same of some people in this thread (myself included) but yeah... you seems to get pleasure at trolling people who want to see SMN getting revamps/improvements either on the dot side or/and the egis-look side...

Not wanting to see the job changing the way it work is totally understandable and it's absolutely your rights but I don't get why you would attack people about a cosmetic change on egis... Let's pretend you re in love with garuda-egi style (huh?!) would you say no to something more Garuda related? (and not what we have right now : a diseased and glowing green bird).

Yes, the egi models are underwhelming. Visually SMN is rather unimpressive. But it does its DPS job well, so the design team sees little incentive to redesign things aesthetically.

Hopefully they got the message and future egi designs look more detailed. Or they implement a future system as SMN levels the designs change, etc. But that's all we can hope for at this point.

Or future modding makes it possible, dunno.

<1% of the playerbase posts on the forums. Not even the whole forum agrees that they should change. I've never seen nor heard of anyone complaining about the egis in game so while 1% seems lowish, it's not a far fetched number.

Everyone wants their opinion to be substantiated, but unless you actually do a player-wide poll, either side guessing at statistics is silly. Since not complaining out loud =/= Happy with the design.
Being shouted down as a 'vocal minority' is so dumb regardless of the topic for this reason.

I don't understand this. Why is telling people that unfeasible changes that could cause more people to be angered than pleased..trolling? I believe that Dwill and I have nothing against QoL changes to any class that doesn't require tripling the work devs already have. Put forth a good idea and you'll find even people like us to agree (and in some cases disagree anyway). Put forth a stupid or wasteful idea and may your god have mercy on your soul.

Been playing as SMN main for almost 8 months. Yes, I do want that, what the OP is stating

Since when replacing a model and its textures is unfeasible and even hard by a dev to a game? It can be done to the customer client by an amateur! And how would it broke the game at a point that people would flame the forum because egis would actually look better? (please don't argue about garuda-egi style, this poor thing look so wrong).
On a side note : Who re you to actually tell people that their ideas re wrongs /unfeasibles or will lead to angers, since neither you nor me have a clue of what will really happen... It's all up to the dev team, all we can do as players is to give "ideas" right here.

Put forth a good idea and you'll find even people like us to agree

Right, would you agree to make garuda-egi actually looking like more garuda or at least being relevant to the main model? And not like a glowing green vulture!
Also, please don't use the "onoes, poor devs got already so many works to do /sadface, let's not make them focus on useless changes /emo-eyes" If they can spare development times for new mounts and fluffy minions design every d*mn patches... They totally can revamp 3 existing models to something better with littles efforts.

im perfectly fine with them not being like the primals but at the very least they should look similer as some one said before a example of whati mean is the chibi ramuh's in the fight. the only egi we have that looks any where near what they should is titan and thats only the white things on him

personally id prefer a time system on summons instend of them being out till they are killed but thats just me ~_~

[CGMidlander]

That one has been around probably since launch, but those are arbiters, not sure if they will re-use the same design for Ramuh-egi.

They probably would, except make the egi mono-coloured like the other egis.
Titan Egi for example, is a shiny, tiny, yellow version of the granite gaolers.
