The Summer Event - New Info 8/8

[BruceyBruceyBangBang]

lol it's a game.. The world is already sick enough like Mtv.
This game and FF has always been proper. Why swimsuits in a fighting game.. It's sick.
Too bad you feel insulted. Not my problem though.
It's a forum where people can say what they think about something. If it insults you then don't get on forums.
If people can say they like it then people also can say they don't like it.

You obviously live in a small american town. Go to a beach on the west coast, the jersey shore, or miami and look at all of the almost exposed or exposed genitalia. This does not compare to EU beaches either. Their men wear like... a cocktail napkin and thread. Get over it. Some people have hot bodies (literally) and need them exposed to evade heat stroke. Would you rather us wear body suits from the 20's? Cause everyone knows how fun the 20's were with their abundance of organized crime and prohibition and stuff.

Pass me the banana boat, ya'll.

Take notes, SE

I'd be lying if I told you I am not more excited for the summer festival than any other thing released so far.

Just look at my name, for Christ's sake. I've been waiting for this forever!!!

I wish they would have made the wallpapers have a styled effect like the poster. Boy, I want to buy that poster and put it on my wall! SE, release a giant version!

Photoshop! lol

Pretty much the most adorable.

I want to see more than just miqote used as cover girls though. Elezen girls can run from bombs in scanty swims suits just as well! :P

Awesome event and funny poster. but I have to agree that I tend to notice this trend with S-E that they always use a miqo'te to showcase anything new. Coatee, /pose, events. Really now S-E, show those female elezens some love too. I'm already sick and tired of seeing miqo'tes everywhere on my server lol XD.

I'm starting to think that S-E don't really like their other races. *frowns*

Yeah...Tarus are like the trademark of FFXI. They're everywhere on the POL site!

Here it's all about the Miqo'te. T_T

[Tsukino]

There's nothing wrong with a bikini. Even little girls wear two-pieces nowadays.

I'm less excited about the miqo'te /pose though. All of the existing emote animations for them in the game are cute, not sexy, and I don't think it fits at all.

On another note...is that Naoki Yoshida's real face shopped onto his character?

[SAMINUS]

These heat resistant swimsuits will be equiped in the undergarment slots? I also wonder what their stats are when equipped. if better than cotten undergarments. also if we can wear these after the event to help fight monsters like.. the Ogre... Ifrit.. would help against fire attacks yes?

Collect All Swimsuits and Create Your Own Original Wallpaper


Love this idea!

I about fell outta my chair when I saw you post how you actually like something. Miracles do happen, I guess. It's an FFXIV miracle!!!!

[AeraLucis]

So, do you think it's safe to assume that the poses the characters are making in those wallpapers are the /pose emotes for each of the races? (except elvaan)
