China is getting wings

You all will argue about anything. If you don't like it don't buy it.

Focus on money & profit is short-sighted

Look at these Japanese companies: Sony, Toshiba, SHARP, SANYO, NEC
because they focused on short-term profit, focused on marketing, not focus on engineering, focus on product, people don't buy their products anymore,
the more money you want, the less money you get

This time, SE is going to kill Final Fantasy title, going to kill itself

Yes Sakaguchi & Tanaka had some mistakes, but SE shouldn't fire them!
it's like Apple fired Jobs,
it's like you did something wrong then you cut off you head/hand!

Sorry I got carried away

Neither of them were fired though. Sakaguchi resigned after Spirits Within bombed. Remember how bad it bombed? It bombed so bad that the only reason Square is still around is because it merged with Enix. He hasn't stopped doing games either, and apparently started forming a new company just this year.

Tanaka left Square for "health reasons." I don't believe they were ever stated, but it wouldn't surprise me if stress from XIV 1.0 not doing well didn't help whatever it was plauging him. He as well hasn't left the video game market completely, as he (I believe still does atleast) works for GungHo Online. Even has ideas for a new online (non-MMO) game it seems.

Also, forum wise if you want to get past the 1000 char limit, you can do so via editing your post. That way you don't need to double post.

Actually I'm comparing something that's debatable to something that's unpredictable. Lore is easily molded to fit whatever comes to the creator's mind. If Ice Heart can change into Shiva for some reason without using Crystals, and it never makes sense, Primal summons come from the determination of the summoner. In otherwords, It will never make sense till the story makes it make sense. And yes, I do pay attention to the story, which is why its pointless to even bother thinking, "Oh this doesn't match up with the lore of the game!" because if it never made sense before, the excuse would be aether. Aether flow, change of hair color, becoming blind using the power of the aether.....what? So honestly you can't say jack about what can't or can be entered in the story. For all we know, forms of Angels and Demons exist in some other world of light that was destroyed and traverse to our world to survive. Full of shet you say? Play the story up till now. I wouldn't doubt it.

Edit: Just watched the "The First Flight of the Excelsior" cutscene (4th cutscene) where IceHeart used an Ice Crystal (Hydaeln's) to transform as well. Woops. (though my next point still counts)

As for the detriments of the planet (and this is a spoiler)

Hydaeln went to the Warriors of Darknesses world to take back the Light that destroyed their world, using the former Warrior's light strength to use Minfilia as an emissary to watch over our world.

In that respect, we can say that by using primals we can prevent the over abundance of light if used accordingly. So yeah, massive elephant compared to your apples, but you get the point. Its not so crazy as for the events we get in the game now. The only reason as to why people don't want the primals as transformations for us is because they hate the dramatic change of what the Player is allowed to do. Be scared all you want. Making up excuses for why a simple cosmetic or a new found ability (thats blatently similar to pomours from Deep Dungeon most likely) is against the lore is flat out ridicoulous.

I can be condescending, closed minded, and dismissive too

Indeed you can. At least I can tell the difference between close-mindedness and optimism.

The new PotD will allow us to transform into a female elezen (?) with angelic wings; then there's Amdapor's Kuribu and Seraph Cane who were modeled after their version of an angel.

There's also the Void Blackguards.

At the very least a concept "angels" existed in Eorzea at one point.

Design-wise, the outfit they showed for the new glamour don't look that great. The wings are too big

Annnnd we've come full circle.



This is why lore is a horrible excuse, too many variables to not have stuff. I honestly forgot about that seraph cane though....

It should be a pass in the cashshop that you buy for 20 bucks and with this pass you're allowed to take on an event ingame. It's fate farming. Minimum 1500 fates. If you're unlucky (drop rate of needed items will be low) you might have to do more fates. Once you get all the items you can turn them in for A HALF of the wings. The second half needs another pass that you need to buy. You can't equip only one half so u definitely need to spend 40 bucks in total. The outfit you get for an additional 20 bucks. Only equippable if you have the complete wings.
Now that's what I call good content!

You can't fly with one wing unless you have superpowers

The outfit in the artwork is lovely but the in-game version is a bit underwhelming. The bardings are adorable though and I'd happily get both if/when they ever come to the NA/EU. What I'm pretty miffed at though is the fact that hair in the artwork, is fabulous and I would want it on my man'qote and naturally of course its not available...

That being said I know we games like TERA, Aion etc which have wings and pretty cosmetic items in them but I like the idea of wings especially on a cute lalafell like mine - but just not those ones...If we can gets ones like Alexander then sure, sign me up. If he can have pretty wings, shouldn't we have nice pretty ones also - not tacky meh ones?
