Will it be possible to tie Goobbue to our account so that characters created in 2.0 can still unlock it on their level 30+ classes if that account previously unlocked it on an older character? Many people will be rolling new characters with 2.0 launch and don't want to lose their friendly mountains

Will crafters and gatherers be able to make any real impact on the world around them? For example, a miner could clear a collapsed tunnel in a dungeon and a crafter could fix a door. Those in a party with the gatherer and crafter who had previously unlocked a passage could now have access to additional content there from treasure to boss fights. I can think of dozens of other things gatherers and crafters could do (aside from stocking their own retainer/stall) and would love to see such avenues explored by the non combat classes.

With the introduction of Bind on Use to all our non U/U gear, will there be more valuable methods of disposal of said gear aside from turning it into materia (which is great, don't get me wrong, but isn't always an option) or NPC'ing the gear for a handful of gil or throwing the items away? Ideas proposed by the community include desynthesising and trading more gear in for some sort of reward like fame or points or lesser items of some sort (that are still less of a waste than the other luck based or immediate options).

I would love to see this as well. I understand XI is getting content similar to this with Seeker's of Adoulin. Will it be possible to at least have a frontier-type area/expansion in the future?
