Additional Mounts Coming... Proof (in this pudding)

[Mychael]

Hardly

I have standards. I want this to be a FF MMO.

What if the devs decided to add any of the following to ver 2.0:

• Open-World PvP
• Giant breasts and skimpy outfits
• Blood sprays
• Flying mounts (eg Griffons) instead of airships
• Unconventional FF races - eg Devil people, bears, dragon hybrids, etc..

Would you find any of it non-thematic or would you just rubber-stamp it all because it sounds 'fun'?

I'm curious.

Okay, okay. I was on board with you for most of this debate, up til here. While I don't like the general direction FFXIV has taken (goobbue mounts, moogle weapons) because there's not a lot of substantial or story-centric content, many of the things you just mentioned do have precedents in FF and wouldn't break the game.

Dragon hybrid?

Big breasts and skimpy outfits?

And you really can't make a point about "Open World PvP" because only one other game from the FF series was MMO. For many of the series' games, you were definitely pitted against many more humanoids than in FFXI.

That said, I absolutely DO NOT want flying mounts, besides airships, and would prefer no blood splatter.

EDIT: In the Viera pic.. is it just me, or is that Bangaa checking out her "big breasts?" o.0
