Log Out Animation

[Sevokevo_Royuki]

This may be kind of dumb to some people, but I find it kind of odd that when people teleport or use Return they get a Animation of them about to leave but when we log out of the game we just disappear with no animation at all.

I was seeing if there was a way that we can get a animation of people logging out before they disappear besides them just vanishing.... Like maybe add the teleport animation to it But change the color to Red or something that way people can tell the difference....

As for things like when some DC's... that can kind of be hard to add so i think that them just disappearing from a DC from the game is ok because before their character disappears, they will be shown of the DC icon which is understandable so it does not make it hard to implement.

I just want it to seem more real that a person disappears that is all.

i have an animation most of the time when i logout : it says " FFxiv stopped responding and has to close down blah blah... :/
Hopefully they will change it to something nicer lol

Well, I think the idea is that your character isn't really going anywhere or doing anything particular when you log out. If it was realistic, "logging out" would be the same as your adventurer stopping adventuring and doing something else. There's no real animation needed for that.

They did say that they're adding a log in animation soon (and possibly a log out one too?) if you logged out in your inn room.

That would be nice to see.... Like when you log out in the Inn... you see your character walk to the bed and actually lay down on it and go to sleep and then your screen goes blank and closes the game or goes to the Lobby server if you choose to do that.

I was hoping for more response but that kind of failed.
