    Further, the wines referenced in the quest are Vagrant Story references. As a friend pointed out to me, Lea Monde Wine is a vintage that Merlose brings up in the game.

    Return to Ivalice is a celebration of Matsuno-based FF titles. Seeing all of the references is very charming.

    And they needed a big filler quest for that reference? I mean they already have the characters from the game, the bosses, the names for location. Shoulndt that be enough? Or they could have let us get the wine in one single little quest that takes us to one place, gather it and then get some nice new information from the NPC. You would have the wine reference without the annoying filler and maybe we would have gotten more real information and lore. I mean when they said that this would be a long and epic storyline I did not think that one quest would just let us kill random red chocobos that are not native to Yanxia or fetch a wine for someone that costs more than an estate and would have us travel to the other side of the world.

    Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
