Capes

[Laifon]

I just love back armor in every game I play, any chance of that coming to ff14 you think?

They already said no. It's too expensive to create the animations for capes.

PS3 limitation.

Capes are for comic books.

So, they will probably never come with it then, even with the ps4 release ;(

I always hide capes anyways. Nothing more than unnecessary stat items, much like "shoulder armor". I much prefer the fact that shoulder armor is built into the chest.

they probably feel the same way about them as they do about belts.


makes it way harder to make cool armor

Can I get tights and a mask too? I wanna play Eorzea of Heroes!

I don't feel either way about this to be honest. I would love 'outer' and 'inner' layers in an MMO someday though.
So light armor could wear a shirt and pants on the inner layer with a robe on the outer layer and heavy armor could wear padding that would show through at the joints and neck for instance.

Personally I'm happy they don't have capes.. I can't imagine XI having them.. Just not a fantasy feeling to me for some reason
