Interacting NPCs with a routine

[Crazy]

This game would be more lively if it had more NPCs and events that would happen in a cycle.

• Like if a mail moogle would roam on the trail on the world map between cities and drop mail and have quests for you to do when he passed by.
• or wild chocobos running about.
• or a thief that appears outside a shop on certain days and certain times of days. a boy that runs around the city asking about his lost mother(don't see much kids and elderly people in ffxiv).
• a ship that docks at ports on different times of the day.
• people that walk into stores and then stare at the counter and then walks to a different store and then to player housing.

That would certanly add a mofe "life" feel to the game I like it

Agreed, but not gonna happen. Lazy ppl XD
it has been mentioned before and never gotten a dev response.

Same goes for a topic I made MONTHS ago about giving us the ability to interact MORE with teh world. Theres like 5 benches we can actually sit on....when we should be able to sit on every single unoccupied chair in the game..specially those tables that are at the adventurers guild...

I've been thinking about this for weeks now actually, and it's something this game really needs. More NPC's and they should all be busy doing stuff, even the ones that give quests could walk around town on a predefined route.

I'm sure Rowena is bored by now, just standing there for over a year.

This is such a great idea! Even though its probably been said before. Dev's should think about this one.

Yeah, even EverQuest had NPCs that would wander around and do stuff. It kinda sucks that everyone in XIV just stands in place all day and all night.
