Thank you for reading it you guys! I know it was long but I'm very glad you took the time to read it. Also- I have to thank those who did voice their opinions. I'm glad you did, I think it illustrates my point further and I hope it gets the dev teams attention.

On a side note-

Tymora, you are right- I probably should have followed up with something in point form. I think you summed it up very well and I hope the devs read both of our posts! ^^

Also, I think one thing you did very well is point out very clearly just how much work this would be to implement. However, I have faith that if these suggestions were taken seriously and if the dev team did take on this challenge, they would emerge with a very rewarding experience for them as artists and programmers, let alone the feeling of success at making FFXIV a very solid game.
