Gauss Barrel

[Kaeoni]

Dear Square-Enix,

Your Gauss Barrel animation looks dumb and is the reason I won't level Machinist.

Some of the guns look cool but are ruined when you slap a Pinwheel on the end of them. Odd, I know... I understand you think it looks cool but it doesn't.
Plz give us a toggle switch/command so we can turn it off and on.

Otherwise, add face paint to the game resembling The Joker so I can act out my favorite parts of the Dark Knight while using my "Bang" gun. Then I believe it suitable and entirely support your reasons for making Gauss Barrel so ridiculous.

Thanks in advance.

xoxo

P.S. Plz tell the team working on FF15 that If i could mail you homemade sandwiches I wouldn't. The Mayo would probably be bad by the time it got to you. But If I devise a way to make Mayo that doesn't deteriorate at an incredibly rapid rate after leaving a fridge, you will be the first to receive Ham Sandwiches on me.


P.S.S. Plz release Haurchefant Body pillows. He is my Waifu

kthx

I second this. Please let us remove the aesthetic of the Gauss Barrel. It makes most guns in the game look bad.

The image on their blogs was a bit inaccurate, so I fixed it a while back.

Also, wildfire explosion.

Don't let this die out. SE needs to be reminded over and over again that the GB aesthetic ruins the look of 95% of guns in this game.

Imo they should just rename the skill to something that relates to spending time aiming the weapon or something that justifies the cast times without any addition of weird aparatus. Cause honestly the thing looks horrible on close to if not all guns.

They should do something about the lunchboxes too. Gauss Barrel and the lunchboxes don't look good with a lot of guns because they're generic and the same for every gun, regardless of theme.

You won't level MCH due to vanity?....

This is actually why we can't have nice things.

Idea I had before was just have your tool set on your side light up. Can even make a lore reason out of it. More aether is required for a more powerful attack, so it takes longer to charge from the box to your gun, creating the cast time. It wouldn't happen but it is a fun thought or retrospect on what they could of done.

Aesthetics and peeves like this can be the deciding factor on what jobs people want to play, especially if the two jobs are extremely comparable. The gauss barrel is another factor for me on why I didn't look forward to upgrading my weapon for a point in time (the other being the fact that it wasn't an upgrade despite a higher ilvl)

Was the snark really necessary?

That aside, I don't like the barrel look either. I mean there are SOME guns it looks okay on, and I understand it's hard to design something that's going to look right on every single weapon, but the majority it ends up looking a bit strange on. When I recently upgraded to the Ferdinand thanks to the easy access of weapon Gobdip I was surprised at how ugly it looked on that, especially considering it's their signature weapon.

And +1 Wildfire animation. Bards got their casting motions improved, let's get some MCH love.
