Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVII! (Localization Koji Fox)

[FJerome]

What criteria is there to get a seat on the Syndicate besides being obscenely, disgustingly rich? Do you have to be a citizen of Ul'Dah? How do you qualify as a citizen?

Just asking for a wealthy Omnicrafter friend who happens to look a lot like me >.>

Is there any lore behind the Esoteric Weapons, or were they just some old Junk Gerolt made several years ago? I ask because of both their use in the Anima questline (or rather, their models and names) and that the i200 ones are called Antiquated

How do you decide on the naming schemes when it comes to enemy attacks?

In the Aetherochemical Research facility there is some thing that appeared to be alove until we confront Lahabrea, petrified during the boss fight and gone by the Time Thordian is faced. I was wondering what that thing is specifically

Right now The Balance and Spear cards seems to have made their relationship to both respective members of the twelve apparent. as well as their own opposed elemental aspect compared to each other. I was wondering if the other cards have a similar theme, if they are only related to the Twelve by elemental affinity or if they were supposed to lean towards 1 member over the other.

In the Library there was mention of the Elements and their relationships. I'm wondering if this is a vestige of 1.0 Elemental system, as it seems to have nothing to do with the Spells BLM and WHM have access to or the aspects of the initial Primal trio

In the days leading up to Heavensward, I was very excited to learn that we going into Abalathia's Spine in the expansion knowing that Abalathia's Spine is home to the gigas. Some quest and FATE flavor text (can't remember which) mentioned that something unknown was causing scores of gigas to leave their home in the Abalathia's Spine and take residence in Coerthas/Mor Dhona. The cause of what drove the gigas away, and what their primal might be, has been a favorite discussion among my friends in my FC since the launch of A Realm Reborn.

Once in Heavensward, however, I was disappointed to find out that we simply were on the sky-islands above Abalathia's Spine rather than in the mountains themselves. I know you probably can't discuss our future interactions with them, so my question is if there's any interesting information you can share about the gigas? They've felt to be the most overlooked of the beast tribes we've interacted with so far and I would love to know more about them.

We know Duskwight are treated terribly in Gridania but what of other parts of Eorzea? Are they seen as just the bottom of the bottom or can they be treated as normal members of society?

[Morningstar1337]

Is there anything you can share abut the time before Allag's rise. Information of the first couple Astral/Umbral eras seems so scarce that I am forced to assume that they are actually prehistory rather then the beginning of history/civilization

[Martiallais]

Are there rituals and offerings left to the Twelve? If so, what sorts of things are left and could you give us a description of any of these rituals?
