Petition Against Ifrit Weapon Designs

[FireHero]

So you dislike anything that dose not look plane and basic.
So we finally get some interesting weapons that DO fit with the game as these types of weapons are in ALL Final Fantasy games!
Its not like there unrelated to the NM that drops them. They fit with Ifrit now if you don't like them don't get them!
But if your going to go on about this ruining the art style why not get the egg helmets taken out the xmas season gear taken out and the rest!

Make s me laugh how people can complain about thins and the same people will complain when its changed lol!

Yea, I gotta be honest. First glance I thought they looked awful. Second look it didn't look so bad. Every look since, they just look more and more tacky. They really just do not look nice.

I really hope that Hard Mode actually means Hard because the more I look at these weapons the more I hope they are not common place in the world..

Hello,

I am very concerned with how these new items might effect the overall image of the game. I will try to state my points without trolling too much or being emotional. I am a designer myself and as far as uniformity goes these things just do not belong.

The Weapons
Based on the video most of us have seen I think that the new weapons are too bulky, tacky looking, and are out of place.

All of the weapons themselves are huge, fat, and clunky. It would appear that they seem from another game almost. When I saw them they made me think of WoW, Aion, and other games as such. It is almost of a Korean MMO design. I think they devalue the game's integrity because they just look cheap and unsophisticated.

It's as if the designers of the weapons couldn't think of anything better and just decided to settle for the sake of getting the Ifrit battle released on time.
"Oh we will just slap horns on everything and make them glow! Because it's Ifrit! It Must Be Horns!".

The worst of all the weapons for me would be the pugilist and archer weapons because they are so giant. The THM weapon looking like PS3 Move Controller or Phallic entity. They all just need more development time.

What are other people's thoughts on these items? When i ask other in game it seems i get like 75% negative feedback on them and then 25% of people actually like them.

Please reconsider these SE,
Especially this coming from a Pugilist, we feel neglected.

EDIT: It was brought to my attention that calling this a petition might be a too aggressive word. I want to say this is more of a discussion than an outright petition. I apologizes for any confusion about this thread. Please contribute to this thread with useful commentary on whether you agree or disagree and what should or should not change.

Someone call the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahmbulance. Another forum post of people crying over making the game better. I am glad we actually have some open minded people like Jinrya and myself in the forums to battle against all the nay saying cry babies. I don't know why SE even reads your opinions because they never change and are invalid to making the game better. Everything new that comes up you cry about. Whether it is auto attack, claim system, new style of weapons, temporary instant airship travel etc. I get mad when I read these posts because so many people complain about stuff before they actually see it, and even in the cases they do see it before they try it.

I love the new weapons...quit complaining.

It really is a shame that you people do not understand how your derogatory post make you look far worse than the people you insult. Just because people don't think the design of these weapons fit in this games Artist style doesn't mean you have to attack them like petulant children. Honestly, how hard is it to say, "I like them, they look fine to me." I personally think they are simply ugly and tacky. The fact that they don't fit within the world matters a lot less than that to me.

i couldnt even SEE the weapons cause it was so dark >.>

The weapons look amazing. Keep up the good work SE.

"No" to dull and bland weapons. Not even Fantasy-like weapons, More to FINAL FANTASY-like weapons.

Don't shout in all caps.

Don't criticize the OP for stating his/her? opinion. Disagreeing is fine.

I agree that the weapons look too cartoonish to be FF weapons. That's my opinion.
