- Colors converted to a fluid spectrum, rather than set colors.
- Maybe ear types

I doubt weight, butt or body type will be a thing. In general, I doubt anything that would require them to re-work hundreds of armor pieces will become a thing.

1. Restricted to miqo'te/au ra only. What more cat tail types are there that we haven't seen? 1 or 2?
2. They always add new hair
3. Face paint is a design choice, they just choose not to add more
4. Scars is a design choice also, I don't see them adding more. More tattoos they could add though but I'm not sure they will
5. Set colors for clans is there for lore/design reasons
6. Ear type? Are there 5-10 cat ear types?

This is the problem with people wanting more customization. A lot of it is either limited to miqo'te or things related to lore like colors.

I think a good start would be:

- More handsome faces (like Aymeric or Alphinaud) and more faces in general, some races only have 4 faces, but other races have 7.
- Muscle slider for all races and genders.
- Beards, good looking beards, I used to play a male avatar and the one thing that I realy missed was having a nice beard.
- The option for Au Ra to swap horns and faces, Mi'qote can do the same with their facial tattoo.
- Tattoo's in general, I dont care if legacy players will cry about it.

Alot of the player characters (minus those playing the rare race/gender combo) look like clones, I want the option to make my own character, which is hard right now, since the options are very limited.

Well more faces would be a good start

Jump potion doesnt even matter anymore nobody does old content it seems. Are they run it unsyc so its basically the samething as a jump potion.

I'm curious where all the extra money for this expansion pack went if they only added 2-3 jobs, no new race, and less side stories. I really do hope they do a complete overhaul of the character customization. They added a lot of stuff in HW with a smaller budget.

I wonder.. can one use the jump potion to level a DoH or DoL class?

Good question indeed, maybe they try to hint us in the wrong direction and we'll get a surprised new race ?
Remember people being disapointed when Au ra were introduced because they don't look like the concept so maybe they don't want that again ?

The next main SE game will be Kingdom Hearts 3, I would not be suprised if alot of the money went towards funding Kingdom Hearts 3. I do agree that it is strange that the next expansion has 3x the budget, but so far it looks like we will have less stuff. I think its to early, lets wait untill the other two FanFest are over, I think then we can a better understand what is going on.

Maybe they changed a little what they said and will give more info. Lets wait december

Let anyone that bought a jump option have absolutely nothing from the previous expansions. No trial roulette, no leveling roulette, no access at all to anything from Heavenward or ARR((except arr jobs obviously)), not even emotes. That's all I want.
