    So having tells in a dungeon, and a tank or healer ends up just chatting away wasting peoples time, (just as an example) no thanks.
    And personally i would rather they allow chocobos to enter dungeons as other people do as well but it will for sure never happen

    I really don't think we should need mounts in dungeons. The impatience thing is a problem for some but making it faster to cater to people who resent spending more than 5 minutes on their roulette run is just going to make that worse and make things even more stressful for newer players. How long realistically does it take to get from the last shortcut point to the next boss? Less than a minute at most? Maybe they could just raise you? Or talk about what went wrong so it doesn't happen again?

    I agree that the lack of communication options is a bit annoying (sometimes I want to check whether someone's online and... I can't). I believe this is a purely technical constraint outside of PVP where communication is locked deliberately; it would require them completely redoing the way tells and character addressing worked for what is ultimately a minor convenience. But the real problem there is that so much of the content is instanced now so this is the case for a lot of some people's play time. I struggle to find things to do in the open world when I'm in my (8 hour...) Frontline queues, and the only people I know outside my FC on my server are the hunt regulars and people who make social PFs. If I wasn't spending so much of my life hidden away in instances I'd feel a lot more involved in the community.

    I'd love for them to reuse levequest technology - not levequests themselves - to implement more non-solo outdoor content without the zerg issues of hunts on big servers (hunts are legitimately brilliant on small ones), so that people in the zone can get involved and you can call on your FC to roll in and help without meeting DF requirements (locking undersized parties to unsyncing and older content makes me sad) or hiding the fun away in an instance with people you will never see around town. Odin and some of the other big FATEs are great fun but the nature of FATEs means you barely manage to gather enough players by the time the FATE is about to end when you're on a small server. I want much more outdoor content to tackle with strangers on my server; it's so cool watching it when you're new and aspiring to be as strong as that too one day. And it's a great way to meet people and add them to your FC without the pressure of an instance where people are unlikely to be from your server anyway.

    Yoshi-P is not here right now. I am his receptionist. I will make sure he receives your suggestions and overlooks it. Thank you.

    The only dungeon where I can remember the trek to the boss being a problem (as opposed to a small inconvenience at best that lets CDs reset a bit) is... Toto-Rak, I think? And that was more due to the massive amount of Heavy puddles than anything else... So I wouldn't really see a need for mounts.

    Especially since you'd only "need" to use them if you wipe.

    I think he means he might want dungeons designed with mounts in mind in the future as well. Similar to WoW.

    It is kinda goofy we can't open the fc or linkshell menu, there's been a few times I wanted to check and see if someone was on, or just see who was on in general.

    You can already chat in linkshells and FC chat whilst in dungeons. Allowing people to send/receive tells would make zero difference. The only reason it was ever disabled in the first place was to stop people getting pestered with goldspam whilst in content that requires paying attention. We already know it's just a toggle that they can enable if they want to because GMs can send tells to you whilst in a dungeon.

    WoW let's you mount up in some raids only because the instances are the size of full fledged zones. Mounts in FFXIV instances are not needed.

    I would love to see more cross realm communication. I hate being in a great DF run and then never seeing the people again.
    I think the cross-realm communication stuff is what the Lodestone is supposed to be for. Like FFXIV's own self-contained social media site.
