Discussing your 'unpopular' opinions

[Shurrikhan]

Actually, they stated a while back Au Ra aesthetic were changed due to how JP players overwhelmingly dislike bestial race options. I believe complications with armour also led to the change.

And yet who has the largest consistent number of requests for a Bangaa race?

Hmm, the JP community...

At this point I'm too used to the dainty Au'ra females to care much, but that hardly seems consistent as a primary warrant on Yoshida's part.

Which is sad since recent data showed that we have more NA players than JP players and together with EU, the western part makes up the majority of the playerbase. And its not like they already dont have their cute option. I honestly hope that the next race will be something less cute otherwise I just see their introduction as useless..then use your time and budget to increase the options of the existing races. (Not sure if that is an unpopular opinion or not)

*Holds shields up* New unpopular opinion: I hate it when people use threads for their own personal conversation. Its fine if its one post or if you at least have a bit of the thread topic in it but posts full of no usefull information for the thread itself annoys me a great deal because I like reading about opinions on a topic but not about something soo off topic. When you have a thread with one page of good talk and then 3 pages of off topic it kinda wasted my time.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Lyse, and her entire character so far is a fairly realistic portrayal of someone in her situation that's suddenly thrust into a position of authority. Said maneuvering of her wasn't unrealistic either.

Also dango is mediocre

We need more ramen, for Gladio! Believe it!

Somewhat unpop opinion: I don't care if your alt job needs the gear more then a fully geared BiS person, if they are on the job they can roll Need for the item too. Though I will agree it does suck if you got really unlucky with the first RNG in gods knows how many runs on such and such piece.

I mean, if we're talking Viera, I think I would prefer the short, cute ones.

While I like Viera, and fully support their addition to the game if they are added, the cute concept would doubly act as a counter to Lalafell. Despite have 3 very tall races (2.5, really, because Au Ra girls) and several average sized option, the scaling drops to very small and baby like for Lalafell. It's a dramatic aesthetic shift.

So, those cuter Viera concepts could bridge the gap a bit, be a second short and sweet option, and be another animalistic option.



But I would rather something Liltie-like. Dwarf-like people with plant features.

I was only referencing Yoshi lie before the servers move, he said the game was designed around 200ping (when its actually around japaneses at 20 ping).

[Shurrikhan]

Well, probably the real kicker...

I honestly think jobs, at least in the implementation chosen, were a cop-out.

While I don't wish for it to be a sudden, incremental jump, I'd love to see the devs actually start to give endgame below Savage raiding some fangs.

Someone mentioned PotD traps in dungeons, and I'm actually okay with that, with some interactivity added per se (i.e. lure mobs to the traps to use against them, or if willing to detour a bit, you can deactivate the traps ahead).

In addition to traps, I think adding a jumping puzzle(that has a switch at the top to open a path/teleport/elevator/whatever to get those who can't do it past) in a COMPLETELY OPTIONAL dungeon. That doesn't give gear that will increase your ilvl. Maybe make it so that ALL(from 2.0 - 100.0) relics gain decent amount of light/aetheric density/whatever.

Whoa, calm down there, Satan :P

And I thought I was in a crabby mood. . . Be good, now. /hug
