Deceased player statue

[crc0427]

I had posted this a while back but had never heard a response from a Dev so hoping to get one this time.

Back in Oct we had a long time friend (as far back as FFXI launch) pass away due to systic fibrosis. It would be nice if we could have a character model statue with his name engraved if you click it. Even if we have to pay for it on the mog station.

I'm sorry but I'm not with this. Mourn in your own way.. you and your friends are not stopped from doing an in-game memorial through RP but to ask the Devs to use resources for a memorial for some player only .01% of the playerbase even knows is sort of a waste.

Them putting it in Mogstation would be profiting off of someones passing. I don't put it too far from the Yugiri voice actress passing and having SE profit from that.

I highly doubt it would take up THAT many resources, Morbid. The data's already in the game, it's just a matter of assigning it to a miniature statue, I think.

No I do get that part man. I'm not saying it would take months for them to complete something like that. The strongest issue for me honestly is just a corporation such as SE profiting from such a practice. This may say a little about the limitations of FFXIV and a sandbox like creation mode for furniture..

I don't mean to spoil the passed persons memory or say the resources aren't worth it.. that's too blunt of an explanation.. you feel me?

Ah. That makes sense.

I'm with Morbid. I think the Devs should stick with game affairs, and not be involved in the real life affairs of other players in such capacity. It's opening a massive can of worms that's best left untouched.

I agree. I can see this easily being abused and a pain for SE to try to verify.

While it is sad when a friend passes, there are most likely hundreds of players who have passed on. This is more than a small thing you are asking, it is not a one time, for one person thing. I realize you want to honor your friend, but personally I find this request a little morbid.

Wow that made me sad but it's the truth.
Anyone of us could go

There was a really fun member of my old FC that stopped logging in one day, a few of us knew he was really sick as well. It's not like hime to just stop playing, being someone who played ffxi start to finish. We had to assume the worst given this, more than six months with no log in. Similar things have happened in other games. A person whom I used to play with committed suicide as well, he was always a high strung player who got fairly worked up over things, turned out he had some severe anxiety issues.
