Fame

[Morticous]

So, why not instead ask for more quests and missions pertaining to GC?



The vast majority of suggestions come from FFXI because the vast majority of players who play FFXIV have only played FFXI. I have also critiqued suggestions coming from Aion and WOW. There just aren't any.

yeah well however the devs decide to read my post, i don't really care as long as it aids in a better system then what we currently have.

i don't really care

Yeah, it shows. Maybe next time you want to put in more than 30 seconds of thought into a suggestion before making a topic.

How is that any different from fame?

The fame system in XI was also linked to advanced jobs. For example, Norg fame. This was kind of a nice kicker (in hindsight) because it kind of gave you a dinky timesink.

I need Utsusemi...DAMMIT...necklace farming time!

exactly. it wasn't simply "talk to these 12 people with ! on your map in the next 30 minutes and then come back and get your Utsusemi scroll", it was more like, you don't have enough fame so GTFO there and get more before I give you anything!

um....it was turning in 5000 of an item to gain fame, you call that involved? HELL NO it wasnt

it was one of the most horrible grinds ive ever seen in a game, worse then exp grinding


lets look at the company system, you can do tons of stuff(including turn ins) to get your points up to rank up and buy items and get new quests, not just 1 quest you gotta repeat 100 times just so you can do a single, or if your lucky 2 new quests that uinlock stuff later

ok so you took the easy way out by trading cabages, it doesn't mean everyone did and it doesn't mean that's what i'm asking for. BTW all you have to do in this game is run toto rak over and over and over and trade in the items, whats the difference? The difference is different fame levels in 11 and what they lead to. GC leads to very little in this game.. silly chocobo gear! woooo.........

[vageta666]

dude that would be hella tight if they added fame. but only problem is is that there arent enough cities/towns. but i second OP motion. good idea man!!!!

[Morticous]

I don't know any of what I said is closed minded and i didn't say i never did any of the mindless seal grinding to get my ranks, i simply said its currently boring and different from what fame was.

I don't agree with Wolfie or TheVedis, i don't feel they are the same. can we now agree to disagree and you may now leave my post now for others feedback? You've said what you need to say right? We get it, you think the dull GC rank system is the same as fame, cool, i think its the same as rank in 11, not as fame. great, we get it.

They should bring back the fame system!

Never. Never. Never. - and this game should NEVER be a FFXI clone.

Again, same result in a different thread. The OP never asked for the whole game of XI to be cloned. He asked for one component that they found fun.

Why people immediately jump to this conclusion is proof that Darwin was wrong...
