Default  Chocobo Breeding to be added to Final Fantasy XI

Taken from front page: http://www.ffrepublic.com/news/final...-Fantasy-XI-35

Awhile back, Square-Enix announced that the FFXI: Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion pack would eventually receive and update that would allow players to breed their own chocobos. According to 1up.com, good ol' SE has given out a few more details on the update, tentatively scheduled for sometime in June.

In order to breed a chocobo, players must first aquired an egg. Chocobo eggs will all have their own unique DNA, and some types will be more rare than others. The egg will have to be incubated for a period of one to three months, requiring daily checks to make sure it's alright.

Additionally, how you raise your chocobo will affect its appearance and abilities. Should you have to leave for an extended period of time, you will need to engage the services of a stable-hand (read chocobo babysitter) at the Chocobo Stables. When the chocobo is old enough, you will even be able to mate it with another chocobo. Square-Enix also has plans to incorporate chocobo racing and other events at a later time.

Neat. Kinda like Creatures or Pokemon.

Shame I don't play FFXI though. Plus, one to three months... is kinda much. But then again, the reward is good.

...I think.

Now everyone’s least favourite minigame from FFVII appears in an MMORPG! Yay!

[/sarcasm]

Well I dunno, it could be good. If it’s a lot less tedious than it was in FFVII. But since I can’t be arsed with MMORPGs, this doesn’t really affect me too much

If they made it so you could put them in cages and place bets on a bloody violent fight to the death, then yeah it would be cool.

And then you could give them steroids and they could win the gold, only to be stripped of it following a urine test.

IN an act of terrorism, I ride my Chocobo infected with the lethal H5N1 flu virus across the land, spreading it to man and bird alike, causing a terrible pandemic.

That would be awsome news. New flu epidemic in FFXI! Vaccines now for sale at 1,000,000 Gil.
