What's a fantasy world without capes?

[Zaireeka2025]

Seeing as how this game is making great use of physics-based animation, it makes me wonder why not implement capes into the mix. I would love to be rockin a cape in FFXIV. What do you think SE? Could this ever be possible? There's an elezen rocking a black one over his plate armor in the background of the CG intro when the hyur is picking his leve at the glowy counter. It would be great if capes could come as a separate piece of equippable gear with their own slot and attributes; but as unrealistic as that seems at this point, I'd settle for it being a part of certain pieces of armor/gear. Perhaps in some upcoming artifact armor (paladin/dark knight) or even hooded capes (thief/ranger).

Nothing says high ranking epicness like a cape in final fantasy, especially with the graphics/physics capabilities FFXIV is capable of. Not a priority, but a suggestion nonetheless.
