                I need to finish my Sam....  Dang crafting and lvling npc have been taking up all of my free time.  Not to mention skilling Polearm/Archery on Sam..  Both of which are 100 lvls below cap...  =(  Oh well, at least WW/Smithing are done soon...  Then more skilling.  >.>

                Not sure if anyones said this and if they have it must have been in a diffrent form and i overlooked it but more interactive zones or areas as well as mobs. Say there is a person who walked into a area and started to spam high lvl fire magic now this would destory the wildlife in that area but it would enventully grow back withen a few game years. Now say there is a family of monsters such as lizards or beastmen that had rare items people would be farming them like crazy but what if people overfarmed them and they became rare in that area unless people gave it time for the popultaion to grow back in numbers. also work the other way around say people leave an area alone for to long it gets overgrown and there are mobs everywhere. I'd also like to see the weather play more into effect

                1. Spell lock is HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE. It's when you stay engaged/disengaged/bound when a spell animation is taking place in your bubble.
  2. Typing a price. REALLY??? not hard. PS2Limitations I know. I shouldn't have to go left one, up 2, left one, up 4 to buy a damn crystal.
  3. More knowledgeable NPCs or a library. There is a lot of stuff that took YEARS to figure out. Goblin drink was a fun wait right?!? Doesn't need to be handed out on a silver platter, but some foreshadowing, history, and hints to whatever the hell they want, would be cool.
  Sidenote: There is a mithra involved in Lure of the Wildcat - Windurst that foreshadows PUP and their puppets by referencing Cardians and their anger, and her wondering if the mideast versions are like that. Epic, do more.

                Kuji said: i duno if this was said already but how bout Talking NPCs not walls of txt? With the amount of missions, NPCs, CSs, etc... That's a freaking lot of voices. Possible, but a huge effort. I can completely understand having text.  Another request I'd like to see... Multi-hit stuff actually showing each hit seperately. For example, Asuran Fists. 8 hits, right?  Let's say it does 800 damage. Instead of just showing 800 at the end, show 100 each hit (assuming each hit landed). I do dislike knowing I killed a mob before the animation of something is done, I think it would be cool if the mob (or person) doesn't die until the entire move is done. Would make fights more interesting to me. :3

                I would like to see some improvements to the AH as well, I think they should make it kinda like EQII with how you can see the item, for how much and compare that to other items selling.  I think that would go a long way of just being more productive. You see a Scorpion Harness for sale say for 200k well by godamnit you pay that amount and the gil goes to the person that you directly bought it from instead of just throwing all the same items of the same type into one category and turning it into a massive guessing game.
  As for the monsters with the repeating models, I think if FFXIV is being built with the specs of pc and ps3 in mind I think they could take advantage of the hardware and software to do that.

                I haven't read all the posts, only the current page posts. Heres what i'd like to see improved for FFXIV: 1)  Able to equip NPC Fellows with armor/weapons (and have the traits carried over to npc) 2)  Better method of skilling up chocobo's level (not digging, but raising and racing) Also, as a side note, even though you can cap its STR from racing, it can't go faster than a rented chocobo when being called on the field, that should be fixed. 3)  More macro lines per macro. 4)  Mob's HP to be similar to Characters HP, unless of corse its a NM... (I don't understand how something "Even Match" has well over twice as much hp as me)

                I'd like to see SE strike a good balance between earning good items and having random drops. e.g. I can't bring myself to camp leaping lizzy because I could spend hours/days trying to claim then get nothing. Perhaps everytime I killed leaping lizzy I'd get some points and eventually be guaranteed the drop. I'm not sugesting this for everything, but some kind of balance between random and earned.

  they have going now Yeah, that ***always pissed me off.  Such a pain in the balls, you gotta kill ***for the key (God Forbid you're not a THF or have one with you) then you get to search all over for the effing coffer... And then the map is potentially a piece of crap anyways, like this garbage:  What a pile of ***LOL

  Everyone Else Rate the original post up if you like the suggestion, down if you think it's a bad idea.  Reply with any opinions.
  If we get enough decent ones I might compile a list and sticky it. Seeing as Scragg has given us this nice new shiny forum I figured it might be a good place to actually start asking the question, what do you want to see in the next FF MMORPG?Please try to take into consideration some of the things that have already been stated as fact e.g. There will be no character transfers. Personally, better use of instanced events is a must. Possible more instanced events for lower level characters to keep them interested. True use of player vs many enemies without having to use sleepga or something similar so one enemy can be battled at a time instead of fighting many at a time.
