1.) Will we be able to see/fight Shiva eventually?
2.) Will there be new areas/zones? (Not Dungeons)
3.) Now that there's more help on the team will we see more hairstyles and other character details?
4.) More dances/poses?
5.) Will there be more weather effects like Northern Lights and will there be a weather reporter?

I posted a similar thing in the dungeons thread but

Will there be any item level sync implemented in the future for post-50 content? While I understand the position of allowing content to become easier over time, the fact is that the ability to completely and drastically outgear the early post-50 content (especially the 4-man dungeons) has made many of them completely ignorable in difficulty. I feel like it's ruining much of a sense of progression in the game, when you hit level 50 and suddenly everything is far easier than it was while levelling, and it makes it even worse when people have to do fights where the mechanics actively matter again (eg Extreme Primals)

Will we get more voice acting in the game?

In the future, will you consider merging worlds?

A question that may have been asked a thousand times over and I don't mean to start any trouble by asking it, but is there any chance that we will ever see an eventual implementation of a "back slot" for gear and equipment like capes, travel/merchant packs, or other functional/cosmetic items?

Hello,
Thanks for answering our questions

As a bard, I find it difficult to know when I should sing "Army's Paeon" because I'm not aware of current TP status in my party. I exactly know when to sing "Mage's Ballad" thanks to the MP bar in the party view but bards don't see the PT bar of others in the party view.
Why is that ? and will be "fixed" for bards ? (as i think they are the only job to need to know the number of TP other members of the party have)

Would it be possible, in a future patch / extension, to get other ways of interacting with other players, and by that I mean "playing" with them at games such as triple triad ?
I think it would be great to be able to play triple triad with everyone you meet in the same way we loved to do in FFVIII or FFIX.

Thanks you for taking the time to answer my questions and thanks for the great work you all do.

Is the skill speed attribute gonna get reworked or tweaked?

Is the Monk job gonna get some tweaks soon? Currently the job is great in boss encounters (without breaks) but isn't remotely good in small (2-3+) enemy encounters, especially if there is some distance between encounters (For example increasing the Greased Lightning buff timer or a 5-10 sec buff when entering combat).

Also is "One Ilm Punch" (Monk job skill) gonna be reworked or be required in any way? Currently the skill is very TP expensive, with no benefit/requirement in PvE (the bonus from the stance) and has low damage.

Can we have a Disciple of the Land FATES?
An idea would be the first person to reel in a rare fish?

When are we going to be able to put Land Deeds on the Market board or Sell them?
