So since I managed to get into the game when the new year begane I figured we should do something fun. Let's look at what the community, or at least the english speaking community, wants the most for the game this year. I tried to pick the most popular options. If there weren't any I just added my own.
New race
Viera
Surprised? Of course not. They have been a very popular request ever since it was mentioned that Yoshie-P considered them for the Heavenward. With the ammount of support it has, their inclusion is a matter of when rather than an if.
Lupin
It is the year of the dog after all. And Lupin are quite a popular choice. They are humanoid but have enough beastly features. They are fully sentient and are not a beast tribe.
Ananta
Very little chance of us getting to play a one gender half snake beast person but it would be awesome.
New customization option
Third tribe
Needs very little explanation. It is a very popular request.
Butt slider
Pretty much THE request since 2.0 launches. It is here to stay untill it happens.
Age slider
Let us play as children tends to pop up as a request. It is unlikely to happen but would be loads of fun.
New job option
Dancer
Used to be the second most common request but now we have red mage so dancer is at the top. Come on, you know you want to kick ass with a pair of fans.
Geomancer
Another popular request and it also got plenty of buildup in Stormblood. If it would happen I wouldn't need to choose between east asian themed jobs and healing.
Blue Mage
Often requested. Potentially super weird job mechanic. Staple of the series. What not to love?
New PVP feature
Company vs Company
It might need proper battle ships crafted but let's be honest. Free Company PvP is a must
Open world PVP
Not a fan of it to tell you the truth but a lot of people are. And it IS weird that we have a single battle ring for duels for world pvp
Siege frontlines
Not a request just my idea. But let's be honest. Siege battlegrounds are awesome and the frintlines we have are way too similar.
Features
Blitzball
A constant request since swimming was announced. Like Viera and Dancer, it has to happen sooner for later if only to shut their fans up.
Ishgard housing
Requested since Heawensward and still not happening.
More grand companies
Another request that pops up regularly since we entered Ishgard
Forgotten character to return
G'raha Tia
Catboy of Baldesion with Allagan royal bood. Locked away and ignored.
Matoya
Sassy old lady. Knows a lot. Awesome music.
Black Ascians
We didn't see a new ascian since Igeyorhm. They used to troll us at every turn. Now the main villains have been reduced to Elidibus showing up in after credit scenes.
Collab event
Final Fantasy XV
It was promised and PC release comes soon
NieR: Automata
Because you are all thinking how much you want to **** 2B, right?
Kingdom Hearts III
It will come before the VII remake. It will be awesome. It could get us keyblade glamours and maybe even lightsabers.
Pick one out of each category.
For example for me it's: Lupin, Butt Slider, Geomancer, Siege frontlines, Blitzball, Matoya and NieR: Automata.
I will regularly count votes and update this post with it.
EDIT: I am dumb I forgot to add collab event
EDIT: First preliminary results on page 6. Should not surprise anyone who has ever been to the forums.![]()
