    Got my "like". I'd really like to know more about the average world view - e.g. do different races share different opinions about certain issues? Do the Mi'qotes worship other Gods of the row of The Twelve than Lalafells?
    I really like that we can gain access information by quests and I think this should be enhanced more. What I really like about quests is the storyline because actions become repetitive quickly (go there, collect this, kill that, lead x to y) which I consider natural for a video game though (can't do much more than your keyboard/controller allows you). With the stories provided the quest or game becomes like an "interactive book".

    Like I said, we already have that but I think this should be enhanced more deeply, maybe some "bigger side quests" or "important side quests" that also contain cut scenes and the like (probably not managable for now but maybe for future patches/ 2.0? )

    Edit: In the Miner's guild in Ul'dah some Elezen was crazy about the Mi'qote dancer and another in there Mi'qote flirted with mine (making clear that I'm a girl) just like a Hyuran girl in the ship to Limsa (story opening) who does the same. So I guess it is not only interracial connections that are somehwat accept but also those with same gender (at least I have not met a char that spoke negatively about it).

    While some interactions here and there, tidbits of lore from levequests or NPCs is alright - you really cannot say with certainty if for example same gender dating is okay, or is it just the fact that they are *coughs* workers of a certain kind, and are willing to do whatever for the Gil. This is why official lore from SE, a clear account of how things are, as opposed to (what can be seen as) bias views of in game characters, is very much needed.

    From the Miqo'te description:
    The self-proclaimed Seekers of the Sun are the diurnal clan of the Miqo'te race. Their preference for the warm light of day pervades all aspects of their culture, as is apparent in their devout reverence for Azeyma the Warden, goddess of the sun.
    The nocturnal among the Miqo'te have dubbed themselves the Keepers of the Moon. Shying from the garish light of day, they revel in the shroud of night, with most offering their piety to Menphina the Lover, goddess of the moon.
