Global Chat

[Adol]

You have global chat in the forms of LS, P and tell. No need for global shout basically.

Yes, those options are available but a global chat channel would allow players to meet new people in-game.
For example, what if none of your LS's armorers are online at that time and you need someone to make some stuff for you? You could ask over the global channel if anyone can make it for you. Chances are, there will be someone online out of the server's current online population that can help you at that particular time. Or at least the chances would be higher if you didn't limit yourself to the people you know all of the time.

There are so many examples of which global chat channels can be put to good use.

FFXIV also needs to become more social since players, 90% of the time, only ever talk in LS chat, making the game seem dead to new and old players alike.
