Thread: Wishlist for 8.0

I don't really consider them talented enough to be hyped about much anymore lol

They can even "defend" it by referencing Catch from FFV. I assume a lot of people want something closer to XI's version(or just any fully realized pet class in another game), but the odds of that are probably infinitesimal.

Storywise, I just want another Shadowbringers. Well plotted and executed, character-focused and enthralling. Give the Scions things to do that suit their characters and help them achieve growth.

Otherwise, my list:
- character bonding quests where you can help the characters with their troubles and feel like a closer friend to them
- better alt support, like having alts be on your friend list and housing tenant list automatically
- glamour system updates, more plates and space in the chest (or better yet, a complete overhaul that lets you glam any piece you've ever obtained)
- cross-DC duty finder / party finder
- make the company workshop accessible outside of housing (for a large gil cost, of course)
- the ability to form alliances outside of party finder

That's just off the top of my head, I probably have more I just haven't thought of. Most of these are just dreams, but one can hope...

I want a story as good as clair obscur expedition 33. Is that too much to ask for?

Or at least, I don't want a story as preaching as EW is.

8.0 pls give us ability to summon vaguely Nevron shaped creature.
(I mean, like SMN, PCT should be the closest job to creation magic anyway)

In an ideal world, a job like Pictomancer would have a dedicated menu, like BRD's Performance, called "Art Styles" or something like that, where you could collect and customize the Motifs' appearances.

Maybe one would swap them to Far Eastern black ink style? Or more art deco, Ishgardian maybe?

I'm picturing what a Far Eastern Madeen could be, something fierce like a edo-style illustration instead of a cartoon.

Could even be some sort of collectible unlocks.

That would be cool indeed. Imagine if we have optional side quest on each region to unlock those art styles. For examples, eorzea unlocks the default art style. Ishgard is art nouveau, Far eastern is East Asia style, ala mhigo for middle east, Crystarium/Amaurot for art deco, and so on.

(Obviously there will be generalization, but better than nothing imo)

The only downside is the art team has to produce multiple Motifs in different art styles, but I believe they can do it.

Stuff like that is where some of our sub money should be going! o/

That would be amazing! I always look at the Byakko Ex weapons and think that would be a really cool style for PCT.

- I wish for alt friendlyness! I would love to have (or buy) even more slots per server. I am not a fan of playing multiple classes with one char, so many classes remain untouched...
Give us an account bank so alts can exchange stuff without the help of other players or the guild bank.
At least make it possible for alts to friendlist/email each other.

This game is mostly great and we have tons of races and classes but the game limits us to actually use them. Please change this.

- I'd like to have a crafting mat bank. Even better if everything you gather jumps right there. Even far better if this is shared between all alts. The market would benefit of such a system as well.
