Your questions for the Letter of the Producer - LIVE

[Antanias]

Will players do idle /emotes if they don't move after a certain period of time? (eg. Highlanders flex their muscles, Miqo'te play around with a ball of yarn, etc.)

We haven't heard about this particular matter since 2.0's announcement on Oct. 14th, 2011....but how will Ishgard Dragon Defense work?

Will we still be able to move our characters around freely in A Realm Reborn, or will I always be looking at my character's back? (for screenshot-taking purposes)

[Blaize]

With regards to Summoner, will the Pet be out at all times until death or its dismissed without any penalties? By this I mean like XI and MP Perp.

[Blaize]

Again Summoner, any chance of giving us details on this "Primal Essences" thing thats been mentioned? Also any pet examples?

[Forerunner]

How will loot work for raids/primals in 2.0? Will we earn tokens, or have low drop rates, or a mix?

[Volfield]

Question:

Why the decision to remove what made XIV so unique?
I.E: The movement animations, the camera control, the fluid animations when stopping/accelerating. Was it all because of the introduction of jump and to remove casting animation lock or is 2.0 simply a downgrade from a unique MMO into a generic catering to Keyboard and mouse MMO?

[MerlinOmniking]

Will it be easier to respec your class than having hymns that you can only use once in 2.0?

[Dzian]

Will we be able to search exclusively for HQ or melded goods? perhaps even filter by number of melds?

[Dzian]

Will we have a decent drop rate / token system for content rewards? one which has a lot less influence on luck or RNG.

[Fensfield]

Have v1.x's detailed movement animations, currently lacking from 'ARR's pre-Alpha footage, been removed permanently?

[Drazzan]

Hello, much thanks for putting together another LIVE letter.

Question:

Would you be able to elaborate on how you will distribute the ARR Client?

Will you be updating the Launcher and Patcher before ARR Alpha/Beta Client is released?

When can we expect a Benchmark launch of ARR?; I know many people would like this.

Can the developers add NPcs to give all weapons/equipment (Dungeon, Relic etc) after the November 1st save so player's can have a final fun farewell?

Much Thanks,
