Sigh

The request wasn't "turn FFXIV into a first-person shooter" it was "let me pick my music track in the open world" which, I will again remind, is ALREADY A THING YOU CAN DO. The request here is for that system to be slightly expanded to include more tracks and an interface to manipulate them.

The constant appeal to hyperbole is not compelling. No one is asking for the entire game to be rewritten. This is a logical expansion on an existing system. It should be well within the scope of possibility to accomplish.
