You could also use private messages while in a random dungeon group to provide destructive feedback to another player, without the possible risk of getting called out by anyone else in the group. Followed by "I have no idea why player X just left the instance".

The potential for abuse is as great as the potential for good, and more tempting to frustrated players.

Not sure why you would even mention being called out by group members a risk when that 1:1 feedback interaction is the easiest way to get handed a suspension.

Why can't I accept party invites while in cutscene?

Good question. YoshiP, take note and sell this to us as one of the features for the 8.0 expansion, and then it *might* get deployed by 8.5 if we're lucky.

The limitation on tells in duties is nothing to do with technical limitations and a deliberate design choice, because SE doesn't want players using it to harrass party members when things go wrong and then escape back to their home server without repercussions (it's why /tells were disabled in duties even before world visit/data centre travel was implemented, and that was the reason SE officially gave). They could implement if they wanted to though, they just won't.

To add on to this with some more information about it not being a technical limitation
Tells in duties and dungeons do exist in the game, next time you queue for Delubrum Reginae and get in with a random party- find someone and send them a /tell
You'll scare them every time because noone ever expects a tell inside there

Raid planner in game, already dead and yet still not release

Thought of two more:

Can't move between zones when a duty pops

Can't abandon a levequest if opening the journal from the levemete NPC

the WoW anniversary was pretty badly handled and rushed because of their patch cycle I assume but it had a lot of cool stuff at the very least with timewalking and iconic tiersets alongside the new ones. The Chromie time mode was basically broken and completely unfinished.

Still a lot more work, effort and actual ideas went into it than FFXIV anni.

Don't get me wrong, Blizzard messes up all the time, their recent catchup patch with the Siren Isle was a buggy mess on launch. But they were quick to fix it as well.
I don't need everything to be perfect, I just need to see that they're actually trying.

Small indie studio sqenix too busy selling leisurewear slop to limsa beasts to try, sorry.
