The graphics are pretty - this game looks incredible!

The music is amazing too
However, even though I have the music set to loop, there is a significantly long silence between the ends and beginnings of the world music. Please make it loop seamlessly forever... or shorten the silence. Also no night time world music :*( Gathering at night gets pretty boring.

I love everything about glamours
Except the restrictions. There's some amazing stuff for DoW that I would love for my AST to wear but I can't.

I love my miqo'te. She's so pretty and cute.

I love the cutscenes, thank you for all the efforts put into creating an immersive game for us.

Hildibrand quests! <3

I love my house - thank you for adding this feature!
However, I feel creatively stunted. I'd rather have mahogany doors over sliding doors, but I don't want mismatched walls or be forced to use Riviera walls... I'd love more variety of furniture. I'd love to change the lighting per floor.

Endgame for casuals - so much to do!

Tomestones are relatively easy to get, not too hard to keep up with the MSQ each patch.

Crafting/gathering - I love it. Thank you for the vast variety of options in which to level my crafts (especially since I'm an omni-crafter).
The time sink is a little heavy for a casual but I guess I can't really complain. That's how I stay subbed.
For god's sake, please up the drop rate on the hidden clusters in the mining/botany ixal dailies. I usually well out-gather the normal items required and am stuck mining shards until a cluster finally re-appears. If I want shards, I send my retainers out for them! It also really extends the daily longer than it needs to be. I have other things I want to do, and with limited time, I pretty much only do dailies these days.
I'm a bit peeved at the 40-50 stretch of crafting... As an omni-crafter/gatherer, there's a reason I chose this route... self-sufficiency. Why on earth are there level 50 items required for level 45 quests? It's either buy it on the market or suffer a massive setback in your flow (which for me, is leveling all 5 levels at a time). My miner is 45 and so is my BSM. I shouldn't need level 50 stuff til I'm in the 45-50 stretch.

Retainers are extraordinarily helpful in gathering things so I can focus on actually playing.
However... inventory space...

Stone Sky Sea was not what I hoped it'd be. I honestly don't give a flying rat's behind about how my dps is as a healer. If I have time to throw out deeps, I pop cleric stance and throw out deeps. But I'd rather hoped Stone Sky Sea was a bit more like WoW's proving grounds. I want to know how I'm doing AS A HEALER. However, for testing my BRD rotation, it has been excellent. So it wins points as a DPS tool.

The Hall of the Novice was so excellent though. My boyfriend is a new player and he was so happy this feature is in game.
