SMN Why don't we hear about egi glamours anymore?

[Exodus-E]

I would personally hope that they're working to remove it, and just choosing to not sink more dev time into a feature that's being removed, but that's reading very far into a situation that the devs have habitually just not talked about much to begin with.

(...)

But whatever the future may hold, Egis have perpetually been a problem for Summoner, and it's high time to get rid of them if they want to move the class in a different direction, which SB and ShB more or less has shown us.

And I (conversely) would personally hope they won't remove them. Like, at all.

I feel like Egis do have a place here, and the changes they've made to them in Patch 5.1 (i.e. making them more "impactful") were a step in the right direction.
They just need to keep adjusting them (like say, making Crimson Cyclone a gap-closer, similar to Automaton Queen's Roller Dash), is all.

Just because you don't like them/feel like removing them, doesn't mean that others will agree.
I certainly don't.

Would love it if a dev could touch base on this...

Same here.

Here's hoping that the upcoming 14-hour broadcast will finally address this. We're literally years overdue on them...

Is that a Q&A live letter? If so I'm going to ask (again) about egi-glamours and hope they answer this time

We don't know yet (although, there could be a Q&A segment).
Better keep an eye out for news over Lodestone for more info.

Are 14 hour broadcasts frequent? That seems like such a long time, what would they even be showing?

Once a year.
They're "celebratory" broadcasts (shown over Youtube/Nico Nico/Twitch) involving interviews with guests/voice actors/developers/etc. and various other activities.

Even if there is a Q&A for the broadcast, and they contain a lot of egi glamour questions, they might just pass over them since they answered those questions recently prior to the expansions launch. I don't remember all of the details, but it was something along the lines of it's important, but not urgent, and that they don't want to say anything until they have something concrete to present, kinda. Try checking out the youtube interviews just before Shadowbringers launch.
