Does square enix hate purple?

[Awha]

To be honest we really do need more shades of purple in the game.

[SpiralMask]

@OP: yes, because it's the color for the flag of ala mhigo
heyo!

Literally every color on the screen you're looking at now is made by mixing red, green, and blue. If you look at a color wheel, the majority are shades of red, green, and blue. The human eye prefers red, green, and blue. How many shades of purple do you think there are and how many do we need? And why did you pick purple out of the list of colors and not yellow?

Red, yellow and blue. Green is not a primary color.

Yeah there does need to be more purple colors and good ones at that.

Green is not a primary color. But we're not painting. Literally everything electronic uses red, green, and blue to make colors.

The main purpose of the RGB color model is for the sensing, representation, and display of images in electronic systems, such as televisions and computers, though it has also been used in conventional photography. Before the electronic age, the RGB color model already had a solid theory behind it, based in human perception of colors.

Red, yellow and blue are primary colours of paint.

Red, green and blue are primary colours of light.

I just had this frustration last night when I was searching for a color for my Dragoon!

We need more purple options!

Dragoon has a perfect match but it's not in the purple tab.

Try "Abyssal Blue".


(I have no idea why someone thought the name Dragoon Blue should go to that Screen-of-Death Blue they introduced recently.)

Abyssal Blue is useful more for being the closest to the indigo (read: blue-violet) shade in the game, the lack of more explicit options is a symptom of the lack of purple dyes the thread was made for.

(I actually use the shade for my NIN glam because I wanted such an indigo color, I also used Dragoon Blue on DRG because I wanted saturated colors and the name at least makes it appropriate for the job)
