p.s. I don't take credit for this image.

my god

the majesty

[Selli]

Quite clearly, the Scholar Atma weapon has a stylized picture of a Gentleman Goobbue on it. You can make out the monocle, wide smile and a red nose, most likely from indulging in only the best of wines. His eyebrows tell of a flirtatious mood, and if you look closely, you might even make out his top hat.

CANNOT UNSEE!

Fffffffffffffffffffff--

[Doki]

Let's not rule out a mecha-goobbue with jetpack/wings.

GOOBBUE? Where do I sign?

[Riepah]

I heard whispers and rumors that the glorious Goobbue might indeed take off and fly eventually. Stand up and be counted! Show your dreams and desires, confess your love for the flying Goobbue! A beautiful future awaits, with our friends, the Goobbues, watching over us from above.

Japanese matome site listed bits & pieces from an interview with Yoshida at the Eorzea cafe. Not sure if this has been posted anywhere yet, a search didn't lead me to anything so I apologize if any repeat news. Here's a rough translation:

• Afro hairstyle in the works
• Bunny ears to be worn by male characters in the works
• Zodiac Weapon will not continue. Instead there will be a brand new weapon quest line but those using ZW's will have a slightly easier time. He didn't want to make it completely useless cause he finished a ZW weapon himself!
• There will be 4 types of airships made with FC crafting. Number of allowed ships will vary by rank, beginning with 4. Buying parts will be costly but if you have gatherers it won't be so bad. The hardest part won't be the building, but gathering materials from Ishgard.
• FC alliance coming in 3.0. It will have a teleport item similar to the eternal bond ring.
• They have plans to add housing in Ishgard but in 1-2 years at earliest. There's not enough land right now so they plan to work on that first. If you're not sure about spending money on housing just buy a large one now.
• Once you clear a certain quest your fat chocobo will fly
• Ahriman and Bomb mount (from Kobolds) as well as primal horses will all fly. First one to fly will be Kirin.
• If people voice their opinions loud enough the Goobbue might fly too?
• Requested armor & emotes will come in patch 3.1. More will be revealed on the next letter from the producer live.

i imagen the sylph goobbue being the only goobbue to fly, since he has the sylphs holding him up XD i image all these sylphs to hold him up smuggling while he just 'stands' there chewing the same thing he always chews

I support this Idea of a flying Goobbue! YES YES AND YES! I'll pay money like I did way back then for some Asuran Arm Guards, will still do for this brilliant Idea.

[Nestama]

If it makes sense, sure. I'm all for it. If it's just walking on sunshine, then no. I will not like it.

[Gilraen]

I have the goobbue, I could have them both if I wanted, and I am so very against this ludicrous idea. It's a giant, wobbly-armed, ambulatory mouth. It doesn't need to fly, at all. What it needs is passenger space, like the tandem chocobos.
