An Eorzea that is more 'alive' and dynamic. - A suggestion for the future of Eorzea

Another little idea,
i would love to see unique constellations in the sky during the night.

And also bump the resolution of the sky texture and for the love of the Twelve, make the sky shift seamlessly, not jumping pixel per pixel as it does now.

ok this is a WoW machinina (funny btw) to just demonstrate how much better chat animation add life ina game. though not set in game all the chat animation done by the character are the same in game. And is based sorta in what we type.

Also in Aion they have words that trigger emotes. like hehe or lol will do
/laugh these add life to the or characters and makes it so we are not looking just at a chat box. I know ppl would be against this but adding an Option to have a ff style classy chat bubble will also help. One pet peeve of mine in ffxi is i miss epic cs or something funny on the screen because I'm stuck reading a chat box. We can have it so its players choice to have the chat bubble (for clutter) but I would again much rather be "looking at the player" i'm chatting with not a box.

the WoW vid showcasing chat animations

again vid is only to show how chat animations add more life and WoW is 1 of few games to use them.

Also there are some NPCS ) like Hąrhanbolo, who constatnly talk about not having a time, (she says she set sails soon) but in fact eteernaly stays in single place. MAke them go and set sail, ( and be back in few hours) yes it might be annoying for people wanting to finish leve right NOW, but hell with them, if npc is available only at certain time each ingame day its OK

not to be mean but that would be a useless time sink : / some may never get to get that leve done because they are log on only when she is gone. But.... I would agree some npc should roam.

Another little idea,
i would love to see unique constellations in the sky during the night. Maybe some could be represent the Twelve, others mithycal FF creatures (leviathan, bahamuth, etc.). And maybe every zone could have some differences (for example in Coerthas we could see 'Halone' (guardian of Ishgard) and in La Noscea 'Llymlaen' (guardian of Limsa Lominsa) and so on). It would add atmosphere during the night time. Some could give you some benefits (example if you are under your -choosen in the chara creation- Guardian constellation in that moment). Maybe also adding constellations maps in game, depending on where you are.

They should make a star constellations of me... No0my!

Absolutely agree.

They fixed it a while ago, you can look back at the night sky now.

And everyone, your suggestions are really interesting and amazing (enough to keep the devs busy for years to come, haha)!

LOL, you haven't looked up lately have you?

I agree with /say and /shout animations, non-instanced character housing, functional furnishings, and more interactive animations (climb, swim, clamber, hop).
