Ask Your Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX!

[Meimei]

Currently, Fisher suffers from major problems. The fact that GP and crossclass abilities from the other DoLs do absolutely nothing for Fisher feels extremely broken.

So many fish in the game are absolute fodder and serve no purpose whatsoever beyond finding the nearest vendor and getting rid of them so as not to clog your inventory.

Bait takes up a lot of space considering how many varieties there are.

Currently, Fisher is also the only DoL that can't obtain crystals, catalysts or dark matter. One plausible idea is to give Fishers Fillet Knives we can equip in our offhand that allows us to make use of a new skill to cut the fish we find for a chance at obtaining crystals, catalysts and dark matter.

Are there *any* plans to address the numerous problems with FSH?

Will there be the option of making a 'company house'?

[TTred]

The problem I generally have with housing in games, when set in a "neighborhood", is that I rarely leave my house to wander around. Largely, because there is little reason to.
Will there be any form of encouragement towards players to participate outside of their house in their "neighborhood"?

Why was the ability to acquire dark mater via DoL removed from the game, will it ever come back? was it ONLY to control the economy.. gil sink?

[Kyuuen]

Speaking to the "neighborhood" of the housing system, can we expect some NPC life in these neighborhoods? For instance NPCs wandering around on a time schedule perhaps, or children running around and playing. And if yes; can we expect those populations to be diversified amongst the new genders including as children?

Will fishers get a secondary weapon that will carry their bait? Because 20+ spaces of my inventory are full of bait.

Why isn't there an option to limit the game of loading a certain amount of characters near you? (ex. being able to limit the game to load only 20-100 characters near you and being able to change that option to fit your internet.) And why does the game load players first instead of NPCs? Making some interactions with NPCs take a lot of time while waiting for them to load that is including Fate bosses.

And about the FC house, will it be paid with FC points or with gil? Will the room distribution be set from the beginning or you can put walls where you want in the set amount of space to make the house more of your style? And what crafts will be used to make furniture for the house?

Mog Bonanza, ( Can i have it please? )

reason being the confiscated rmt money :O

[Veritas-Ancora]

Can you please make self-repairs a little easier?

For example: if I am a White Mage, and I have a fully-leveled weaver, can I simply click "Repair" as a White Mage.

Currently, we have to switch back to Weaver, unequip all the items, find each item in the armory, and return back to White Mage, then repair the staff with Carpentry, switch to that, etc.

Chocobo Raising, when can we expect it?

[ZakarnRosewood]

Basement workshops: can you give us more details? Crafting buffs?
