With the addition of new races and the option to change race and gender, will you also allow the option to change the name of your character?
This would make me very happy. I would not like to have a male Miqote with a female name.

With V2.0, will the current main quests get deleted and new main quests be created?
If the above is true, how will new quests work with players who already have level 50 classes? Do they start the main story from scratch as if they stared a new game, and therefore, empowered?
In FFXIV's (distant) future, will the "optimization" for PS3 become more of the "limitation" FFXI has with PS2? As we are all aware, PCs can be upgraded and MMOs can expand and even make use of new technological development with them. With consoles, this is not so.
(A side note, thank you for addressing FFXIV's technical debt with Server / UI system. )
While FFXIV 2.0 is a welcomed change that we've all been waiting. I think it's safe to say that the current dev. team has taken better to change than that of our previous FFXI dev team. I think the current changes regarding 2.0 feel drastic at best.
When comparing how our feedback was received in previous years; I think it's easy to forget how relatively easy change has been on us. By releasing a 2.0 Square Enix as a company is admitting to failure on a grand scale, but want to improve upon it. Where the business side comes into play, is that they think they're justified in charging us for a game that for all intensive purposes won't exist anymore. While I'm not one of the "hardcore" players, I'd like to think that my loyalty was worth more than what has been currently expressed by upper management.
I do believe the development team should be paid for its efforts, and the company has been doing so. Why must we the loyal customers, fit the bill in the final stages of a "beta" product? I think the company should take a serious look at what "we" as fans have for the most part said along. SE is known for poor communication. As a result, this doesn't surprise me, but at the same time where is the honor in correcting a wrong?
I can't speak for everyone, but I felt and still feel like the current dev. team is doing an awesome job. For that I went back and installed FFXI and signed up for an account. I even bought some expansions because I wanted to contribute to the good intentions and effort I saw being made on FFXIV. However, with the current direction management wants to send us in, why should I continue to play until 2.0? I'll be dropped in for all intensive purposes a new world, with new surroundings, and my time will have meant nothing but transferred items that are rendered even more useless than they are now.
Why not setup a donation system of some kind? Why not just close "this" game down completely until you're actually ready to submit a solid product to the gaming market?
Will you be able to level up the upcoming jobs?
Will we have dragons as we play dragoon? If we do, will they evolve physicly as we progress with our job?
With the new engine coming out in 2.0, will the animations change for attacks and normal motions?
In the roadmap, pc search is noted in the 1.20. What exactly is PC search?
Playable Character search, a way to do a physical search for a player or players with the letter combinations you input.Quote:

Most of my questions are about customisation.
Q:
[SIZE="7"]Please can Dragoon have a Wyvern! I want Wuffi back![/SIZE]
Q:
Will there be more customisation options available to stop everyone becoming clones of each other in terms of gear and appearance of said gear?
Q:
Can we please have coloured chocobos? I think a skyblue chocobo would be ever so cute!
Q:
Will we have more ways of customising our characters after creation? Having to use the same hairstyle and colour for years gets boring.
Q:
Can we have more control over our appearance upon creation, much like in Oblivion where we could edit every fine detail?
Q:
I noticed we will have player made add ons which is great, I'm creative and always love making my own levels in games. Can we make sure that at no point these become a requirement, though? I don't want to "need" something to play some mainstream game content.
Q:
Can we make females a little sexier, and males a little manlier? Women need to work what they have more, and men need to show their muscles more!
Q:
Can you please diversify monsters in V2? Having the same monsters as six years from 11 (like, literally the same, cough Opo Opos...) is a little boring.
Q:
Can we please have open world estates but only people with the key or an invite can enter if possible? Instanced houses would take away half the point of owning one.
Q:
Last question, can you please, please, please, please, please, please, please keep Limsa Lominsa's music, thanks!
You need a Free Company of at least 4 to qualify for an estate (thought I read that in the update .pdf) which would lead me to believe that your "estate" will be linked to everyone else in the Free Company (its like a semi-instanced location where you share a small neighborhood or road with your Free Company; is what I believe will happen, or at least hope)Quote:

Will we be able to swim in 2.0?
What's the deal with the floating red atherites in the concept art?
Question 1: I'm noticing that the concept art for Warrior, Dragoon, and White Mage appear to have 2 options for the head gear (Visor/Hood UP and DOWN)... Are you guys really implementing the ability for us to pull them up and down?
Question 2: Now that we have a new graphic engine and this beautiful concept art of Odin with an obvious cape: Will we be seeing capes/cloaks/mantles entering our plethora of gear options finally?
Question 3: Can our security tokens be accessible via mobile app? I'm afraid of losing the dongle.
Question 4: Could AF armor be linked to our lodestone images (like events do) when we earn them in-game?
Question 5: Will moogles play a bigger role in FFXIV 2.0? I would love to be able to have one as a pet!
Question 6: Can we have an emotes favorites tab?
Question 7: Can the animation while teleporting involve more than simply standing there? Simple meditative animation would suffice!
Question 8: Will the redesign accommodate the upcoming jump feature in any functional or immersive way?
Question 9: Any chance Onion Knight is coming as a job? Perhaps after earning a combination of multiple classes?
Question 10: The upcoming mmo ArcheAge has impressive ship crafting and ship battle content planned (not to mention climbing and swimming). Any chances we can get something similar or better?
P.S. FFXIV 2.0 should be subtitled so everyone (especially those that left) knows this is something brand new and reborn.
