Gardening

[jesseleewelch]

For those of you who have not played FFXI, there was a rather interesting concept called gardening that you could do in your moghouse. After buying pots, you could experiment with different seed/crystal combinations, planting & harvesting on different days, seeking out profitable combinations, etc...

I rather liked it so I have to ask... will there be gardening in FFXIV ARR? I don't know if this has been announced yet or not which is why I am asking. If so, is it going to be at launch or during a separate patch?

As far as I know, we'll have gardens? I may have made that up, but I remember reading something about chocobo stables and breeding in your back garden... but that may have just been someone's idea >.>

In any case, I'd quite like a gardening aspect; make a fun little mini-game for BTN or something =b

During some LIVE Letter, I think, someone mentioned a vegetable garden while talking about houses, but it didn't sound like it was a feature they were planning any time soon. It sounded more like it was a neat idea and maybe they would look into it.

It shouldn't be limited to Botanists, though. In FFXI of course, anyone could garden. Even mules could level up the hidden gardening skills. If SE wants to make a class out of it, that could be Gardener or Horticulturalist.
