I recently started playing Final Fantasy XIV. Like a lot of MMOs you can get mini-pets for your character, and I love the fact that some of them do more than just hang out with you. There's a coeurl (magic leopard) kitten that will jump into the fray and take teeny-tiny swats at enemies. A wolf puppy that will growl at them and a Moogle who will dance along with any other player's moogles that it gets close to. WoW had a couple that would do cool things too, there was some sort of evil eye type pet that would zap and vaporize any critters (rats, squirrels, etc) that it got close to, and also a spring rabbit that would produce a bunch more baby rabbits if you brought it near another one. Here's the moogle dance! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--i1U0XK9F8

Here's a couple more small FFXIV things I'm loving: 1) it has the Best Hat 2) When your character equips earrings you can actually see them on the model.

In Final Fantasy XIV:A Realm Reborn you can fish. Ok you can do that in many MMOs, but what I love in this game is that there are different animations for different types of lures, for example: you do a real basic cast with something like a worm, but you do a proper fly rod cast when using a fly as bait. It's awesome. The animations change depending on the size and quality of the catch too. You also get a little chair to sit on if you use the emote /sit while fishing. The only way it could be better is if you could /drink a beer while doing it.

Dragon's Dogma is the best. One of the little things I love about it is since you get to create both your character and main pawn, you get two people to play dress up with.

Gestalt Intellect posted:The innkeeper or merchant thing was actually true for a lot of players until a patch made a special case for those two NPCs in particular. An NPC likes you a tiny bit more every single time you talk to them, so naturally the innkeeper and weapon store owner tend to have a lot of "affinity" with you by this point in the game since you've been talking to them and skipping through their 2 lines of dialogue nonstop for pretty much the whole game. If they ever do a sequel and you can't accidentally end up gay married to the innkeeper it just won't be the same.

Wearing silly poo poo in cutscenes is the best. A while back FFXIV added a hat based on the slimes from Dragon Quest and nothing livens up a serious storyline quest like seeing that thing jiggling on your head while NPCs are talking away.

Nekodoshi posted:I also like how each Final Fantasy game tries to include Biggs and Wedge as characters. The last time i remember seeing them was in Xii, where they had their names scrambled. Come to think of it, XII could have been amazing if the characters (outside of Fran and Balthier) hadnt sucked so hard. They're even in FFXIV (so is CId)

i'm glad you all like those little things that make games cool In Final Fantasy XIV there's a ton of little things I enjoy: I like the fact that earrings are visible and have physics affect them; as someone who's seen computer graphics come a long long way even silly little, and now commonplace things like that impress me. I like the way there can be accidental interactions between things; here we see a tonberry viciously murder a fat cat. the tonberry always slices, the cat always rolls over. they line up nicely though! And I don't usually give a crap about any fan made music videos for MMOs, but FFXIV has some really well made ones that consistently make me happy. Like this one featuring a guy named Mr. Face and set to a song by Psy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TtUBZyYJr0

It's not even out yet, but in Neir: Automata when you go fishing 2B generates a holographic stool to sit on.

"Why won't this fuckin zombie stay dead!" An actual thought I had while playing Resident Evil 2 remake. I'm really enjoying how they've changed the difficulty of the normal zombies, it keeps catching me off guard.

In the original Resident Evil 2 there was a welcome sign for Leon to celebrate his first day. If you look close you can see that they messed up and wrote Wellcome Leon. Thankfully, they fixed it for the REmake Wait, what's that on the desk below?

ToxicSlurpee posted:Morrowind actually does that if you run around naked. People are like "do you have no decency? Put some drat clothes on" but then conversations otherwise happen normally. The Temple of Elemental Evil does basically that same thing. Possibly (it's been awhile) a few won't even talk to you at all until you put some clothes on.

I'm sure I'm messing up the details, but in HZD's dlc Frozen Wilds there's a guy who is collecting holographic records for a barely functional ancient museum and eventually concludes grizzly bear = grizzled bear and it must have been old and weak and maybe the ancients felt sorry for it or something and that's why it's in the collection.
