Your questions for the Letter from the Producer LIVE

Right now Gil is only used for basically buying weapons and armor to do better in battle. Will there be a casino in 2.0 with actual games like poker where players can compete against one another? Can there be a system implemented where instead of crafting to make money, players can treat items in the auction house as stocks and buy low and sell high to make money?

Thank You!

FFXIV has A LOT of wasted lore, especially concerning the different races & clans. Are there any plans to give the races & clans in 2.0 more individual flavor? Can we ever expect to see clan settlements out in the world (IE; underground or cave based Duskwight village, Plainsfolk island settlement, etc) at some point in the future?

Also will the plot line regarding "the echo" ever be revisited? Seemed like that whole thing just got completely forgotten after the Futures Perfect quest.

Also, will 2.0 be more connected in the sense that whatever you do has more of a ripple effect? For instance (Not saying I want exactly this); having the gates open in Ul'dah so that R25 monsters can wander in and attack, which paves way for maybe a Ul'dah Defense Unit where people take liberty in defending the people of Ul'dah. FFXIV current version does not feel like a world like an MMO should be, but more like, players on an open world map ranking up so they can fight primals to get weapons to fight harder primals plus an in game economy. I would like to see a sense of connection where everybody can feel the effects of what one another does and will FFXIV ARR provide that?

Culinarian recipes often requires 8 items. Are there any plans to simplify the culinarian recipes?

Will the development team incorporate social medias like facebook and messaging into FFXIV ARR?

Will the primal fights be still a part of ARR just without the achievements? Or ar they gone forever? Will you still be able to obtain the primal weapons or do the totems, nut charms and headdresses become obsolete?

Hello, I've been a long time Mithra/Miqo'te fan and was wondering about a few things. Will we Miqo'te get to see more active tail animations in ARR as well as some more playful /emotes for our race? And if possible could you show us a few new hairstyles... maybe something in a longer style by chance? Thanks! >^..^<
