I read and reread this "question" many times and still can't find the question in it so you may want to edit this one Allistar. Try words like when, where, how, why, will, etc to start one brief sentence, and have everything else you talk about there come after the question. The question is the important part and I just don't think you're getting that question across... Instead it seems like a list and I don't understand what you're trying to get at by listing a bunch of random FFXI and/or FFXIV features. A question mark at the end of said list doesn't make it a question.

Wil Voice over Internet Protocal be introduced or considered in this game,not talking a seprate software VOIP but built into the game, or will this be considered in the future, most MMO's use this feature would love to see it in ARR.

will be possible to change name at the official release?

Will FFXIV 2.0 be available on the PS4?

Will there be a A Ream Reborn fan site kit made available?
What about a Lodestone API for characters, items, etc?

Will you be able to purchase subscription options on the Playstation store when the game is released?

Will female miqo'te players from version 1.0 be able to switch their character's gender to male at the launch of ARR?

If the latter, how will you distinguish jobs from one another when their base classes are the same ? Won't they have mostly the same abilities ? What about weapons ? It would be silly to have 3 or 4 jobs that all use the same weapon.

If the former, then classes seem unnecessary. In 1.0, players already proved that jobs can be just as effective at soloing as classes can, if not more effective. So this justification for classes has become invalid. How will you validate the need for classes if they will inevitably upgrade to a more powerful job ?

This is the best I can navigate forums...

will our character's personality grow up in the course of the main story?
what i mean is:
it's ok if at start our character is shy, or he needs always to be rescued, becouse after all we are just recruits or "new adventurers".
but i would like that once you start to raise your rank doing missions and quest and you become well-known from city to city, then our character instead of thinking "oh damn, a big enemy! help!" will shout "stay behind me, i'll handle this!"
i think this would made the character much more "alive";


(p.s. sorry for my bad english)

It's possible they were implications on inquires... FFXIV bazaar system is stable in my opinion however price setting changes fast and can jump a fair amount. Personally there was FFXI lingo spoken so let me do the auction house for a moment / market. HQ +1~3? should be on a different tab (an opinion) hard to locate and lots of time wasted searching the Market. Okay, so lets add in this chart for refrence with money variance.

Spell Name NPC price? Auction house price?

Blink 2376 1250-4300
Diaga 1320 750-2400
Banishga 1320 575-2100
Stoneskin 7962 4500-8750
Thunder 3696 2750-5250
Sleep 2550 1650-3250
Burn 5263 2500-7250
Drown 7215 3450-9725

Inventory space was set to be 200 spaces and now a change to 100 spaces. An event NPC will have any item overflow from the 200... Delivery system and trade system 8 slots... 4 isn't enough when crafting takes 6 and money / crystals are needed. After that rant I suppose I'll go with they were directed at why they wont use any of the things that worked in FFXI...
