Suggestion: Vanity Pets

[Mijin]

I really don't want this. Unless they make so you're pets can't leave your inn room. I don't want to see every character running around with a pokemon chasing them. If you're into that sort of thing I hear wow has pokemon fights in it now.

Do you think that they'll let us call our choco when we're in town and or on a DOH/DOL class? Honestly due to your past posts I don't think anyone will give you much thought anyways.

Due to your preveouse everything, blah blah blah, stupid that you are lol. WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE WANT THOUSANDS OF LITTLE PETS FLYING AND RUNNING AROUND IN TOWN!?!?!?!?! I would seriously quit the game if I saw that.

If it makes you leave the game then all the more reason to want it!

you are a scum bag you know that lol

I try and refrain from calling people names and what not, but wanting somebody that's not even on your server gone from the game, is a super low for anyone on these forums.

I think vanity pets could be a neat idea, if they implemented them carefully. IMHO they would have to be on the small side, no big obtrusive critters with flashy animations. And I'd like them to be fairly ordinary and, dare I say, pet like. No mini floating eyes or tiny beastmen! I think ones like these would be fun:

Dodo Chick
Young Dormouse
Opo-Opo Follower
Dwarf Coblyn
Befriended Spriggan

As for framerate and lag and such in cities, well, I dunno. But other games manage it just fine, and XIV is getting a snazzy upgrade, so I think they should be able to handle it too. Just my 2 gil, though.

Yes, please add this SE! And for those of you who don't like the idea, you don't have to get them.

That is the worst argument ever, Don't like it don't use it!~

Sorry but I will still have to see em and deal with them. You do know you have a pet goobuu and chocobo right, and in 2.0 you get to raise your own chocobo! Sorry but no thanks.

^ This.

And I would prefer if they were only around our houses/ housing area. After a long day, you get back home and find that little creature waiting there for you... starving! xD

Do you have a problem with people having an opinion? It is my OPINION that it would cheapen the feel of my character being someone who's been through the world being destroyed if I had some fuzzy little thing following me. You're entitled to yours, but don't go attacking people when their opinion is different from yours.

Well you don't need a pet. Simple. You are not being forced to have one. x.X I'm pretty sure it would be optional to have. So just because you don't like it mean others wouldn't want it part of their game experience... that's what we call selfish mentality.

I personally wouldn't mind vanity pets, because that's all they are for vanity sake. =D

And for those who don't want to see them period on their screens, its pretty simple... simply request as well from SE to apply an option to "remove vanity pets from being visible". I've seen such toggles before in Tera Online, so I believe it should be possible for SE to make something similar. There, everyone wins.

If you're going to do nothing more than throw the "if you don't like, don't use it XD" argument, then there's really no point in arguing. What's selfish is not accepting that some people don't want them in game. That's what selfish, making people who have an OPINION out to be the bad guys when we're just trying to voice our opinion, which we have just as much of a right to do as you. Just because you don't agree with us doesn't make us selfish, and a claim such is that is nothing short of ignorant. And if you're saying anything's okay "just for vanity's sake," then you surely wouldn't mind people having gigantic black and white wings, having an obnoxious fire effect on their character or any other sort of distracting and (oh my god) immersion breaking types of things.
