What would you ask the Devs at Fanfest if you could?

If you could ask a question or several questions at Fanfest, what would they be?

I'm curious to know what sorts of questions the community really want's to see be asked.

Are there any plans to introduce a harder difficultly mode for dungeons? Or any other sort of accessible and challenging 4 player content?

Also, do you guys not have peaches?

First. Thanks for buffing samurai to making them the actual highest melee pDPS melee. However, unlike blm, it's still hard for us to compete against Ninja and Dragoon utilities. Even against monk's. Would you ever consider buffing our DPS again?

Are you planning on giving actual physics to our characters hair?

Who among you thought the first version of "Shake it off" was a good idea as a lvl68 skill? And why did no one stop said person? Were you all drunk?

I know it is a great skill now, just that I would really like to know what they were thinking when making the original version.

Is Eueka an early april fools joke?

I honestly can't think of any questions that would get a decent response.

Savage and Ultimate have dps checks, yet there is no official method to check dps in a fight. Can you explain that design choice?

You say you're against homogenizing jobs and action bloat, but you changed WAR's Esuna-like ability to party-wide shields and you uncapped role action slots. Can you explain that?

Have you considered combining the hunt system with large-scale FATEs that are widely left untouched after they're initially released?

Why do you continue to create content that has many players in a small area (such as hunts and Eureka) when the game is unable to support it?

BLM had its Fire IV potency increased from 260 to 280 in 4.2 and from 280 to 300 in 4.4, about 7.5 months later. Why did it take so long for the second potency increase and doesn't a second potency increase with no other major changes so long after the first indicate that you aren't fully comfortable with how some jobs work?

Can you comment on the ratio of console players to PC players?

Have you had any ideas for FFXIV that were turned down by SE? If so, what were they?

Who makes the rules for what is and what isn't allowed in the game?

Some jobs are reduced to using 2-3 actions when synced. Any chance of adjustments to syncing or how jobs learn skills? (idea: personal option that allows for access to all abilities while synced but includes a penalty of sorts)

I don't think I could ask any questions that haven't been asked already before and unfortunately, brushed off as well.

is Eureka an out of season.... bah too late

Id ask them if they could add the first grindable relic step right into the expansion 5.0 and not in later patches.

This would change the endgame formular at xpac release. Instead of having only 2-3 dungeons to farm and 2 extreme primals to grind for their dog. Ah and not to forget the wonderful S/A hunting.

Do you have any plans to move away from the current savage raid design, where the final boss just starts repeating earlier mechanics halfway through the fight? I get that it was most likely done because of the extreme phase skipping in Creator, but this design is not exactly interesting and feels cheap.

When will we get a doggo race; the contrast to Miqo'te.

How do you balance jobs and are you completely unaware of the idea of players stacking synergistic/naturally aligned rDPS buffs as a general practice?

Do you ever read the forums or your Reddit other than to skim for exploits like that squad LB thing a ways back?

Do you actually want jobs to be balanced or do you not particularly care about anything beyond technical viability?

Basically this.

Most questions have been asked already and brushed over or outright denied by now. We aren't getting better servers, graphic updates or smoother combat, they don't want cross-class glamour, they can't give us a glamour dresser like WoW, there's no plans for triple triad, verminion is abandoned, Eureka will continue all expansion and they don't want to nerf it or party lv sync it, no we can't mail fc members, no we can't have an ingame fc calender, no Ishguard can't have housing or a grand company, no there won't be a "FF-token" like WoW, auto-demolish is here to stay, no they can't up the limit for housing items per house, there are no plans to alter the standard tome grind for gear, they don't plan to make dungeons relevant for anything but hyper-casual and roulette, crafting will continue to be more "accessible", no they can't really stop the bots, no they can't balance tanks properly, no they don't plan to make tank stance useful, no crafted accessories will continue to be tank BiS, it is intended that Nin/Drg get prio raid spots over Sam, more 15 min same-old Hildebrand on the way for no rewards look forward to it, oh and the servers will blow up if they add literally anything at all.

Asking them questions would just be depressing...

Can you add face items (eyepatches, glasses, bandannas, masks, etc.) to earring & necklace slots, so we can combine them with head gear like hats & helmets?

Are you eventually going to work on the bad 1.0 code or are you just going to let the game crash and burn?

When can we share private housing between your own characters

Can't you guys just implement a permanent 25% price cut on everything on the Mog Station? Them prices for digital goods.

Is PVP (Feast in particular) ever going to get any love and attention? Our maps are gone, our chat is gone, our characters' unique abilities are gone, most of our incentive is gone. Do you just want PVP to become as forgettable as Lords of Verminion?

i would like to ask if they would increase the playlist size for orchestration rolls. for so many great songs they have 1 playlist of 8 is just not enough considering how short some songs are .. i would also ask if they have plans on making long hair styles, we have an expansive amount of very short styles and would really like a few really long ones.

Would you please get rid of all them male Miqo'te?

What would you do for a Klondike bar?

Turn FFXIV into a Rated M game and add more Mature and suggestive Emotes/Skins/Glamour xD.

Why are all the male races except for Roegadyn and Highlanders "prettyboys" and can we get less of them?

To piggy back off this one. Would you consider adding emotes that would allow me to hold hands with my wife and give her a good smooch? Just, overall more affectionate emotes I guess.
