Isamu Kuno 2,512 Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) Good. This way, people who want Moogles can have them, people who don't can ignore the DLC, it won'the delay development and it will fit into the world better (since Moogles won't just be running around) I was saying on another site that Moogles would have to be hidden from the general public since it would be difficult to add a sentient, non-human race to a "Fantasy based on reality" unless most people never came in contact with them. Adding Moogles would be like adding Ronso or Viera so they'd have to be careful with how they're encountered. Even the Behemoth is realistic because it's very similar in structure to a smilodon or saber-tooth tiger, which did exist at one point.

RobertOrri 202 Posted November 9, 2015 How the hell did you read that and think it would be DLC?

Dave 5,715 Posted November 9, 2015 No one should have to pay for Moogles. There should be pompoms and batwings right from the moment you boot up the game. 2 Hargleblargleboo and Dio Brando reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Green Sparrow 795 Posted November 9, 2015 Good. Moogles are just one of those things that need to be in a FF game.I don't have a source at the moment (I might come back later), but I thought Nomura (when he was in charge) said that there WOULD be Moogles in the game. Didn't he say something to the tune of "The Moogles in Versus (XV) will be similar to the ones found in Type-0", or something like that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xiro 3,468 Posted November 9, 2015 The Tweets in question: "Hi Tabata here. Congrats Moogle! I’d like to thank everyone that voted. I will think of a fun little way to feature Moogles in #FFXV (1/3)" "Importantly, at this stage of development I will not be making a trade off with the other work remaining in order to fit them in. (2/3)" "So it won’t be a very chatty Moogle, but will be done with a suitably light level of development work as a fun little #FFXV extra. (3/3)" ... Not sure how DLC would be "fun", but I guess it's possible. On 11/9/2015 at 5:59 PM, RobertOrri said: How the hell did you read that and think it would be DLC? They never said that. If I remember correctly, they have mentioned free DLC, but as far as I know nothing's confirmed in that regard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted November 9, 2015 If this means legit moogles,why are they DLC to begin with and why do I have to pay for what has been a stable creature in the series since FF4? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moogles aren't in game yet because they weren't sure how they'd fit into the more realisic atmosphere they're going for and if they add them pre-launch it will only delay development 2.

In the official translation the only DLC confirmed to be free is the Airship. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Technically there's been a good number of mainline titles where they don't really appear. They weren't even going to include Moogles here but thousands and thousands of peoples said they wanted him.

Regarding the realism point,that's thrown out the freakin window the moment you realize that the goblins inside the caves retain their classic design from the older Final Fantasy games heck it's thrown out the damn window the moment you summon Ramuh to aid you in the Behemoth hunt quest 1 Sendou Aichi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah,it doesn't feel as colorful as other entries,heck looking back at the trailers the color choice look damp and moody,on top of the fact that Noctis and his crew are wearing the exact same color of clothing which,maybe it's just me,but in the heat of battle it can get a bit confusing 1 Sora96 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
