Minions aren't exactly a good example to use, when you could easily say "is it possible for SE to make SMN pets as detailed as the SCH pet?" I'm well aware of Ifrits animation and the minion has a lack of arms. That was my main argument on it (and the lack of detail comment I made was that the Ifrit minion is less detailed than the Egi, something all chibis suffer).

In my opinion, while I would have normally been fine with a SMN glamour system (letting you choose whether to have Shiva-Egi out instead of Ifrit-Egi, or even a Carbuncle), at the moment I would prefer SE to focus on making more PvE content that remains relevant from the start of its patch life to the beginning of the next (and not make it a boring mess).
