Thread: Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XIX! (Patch 2.5 Preview)

On the subject of dungeons, many players have expressed disappointment with receiving crafting materials, even from the treasure chests at the end of dungeons. Worse still, what gear we get now is simply older gear removed from shops, and most if not all of it is below current item levels, thus making them of limited use. To remedy that, would you consider having unique vanity gear (perhaps uncraftable or able to be worn by all classes) or better, transitional gear that is proportional to what's currently available? For example, most players have gear between 100 and 110 right now, and run dungeons for tomes to aquire i120 gear; would you consider i110-i115 pieces in dungeons?

Further on the subject of dungeons, many of the far corner areas of Eorzea are rather interesting, storied locations, such as Thanalan's Burning Wall, Red Labyrinth, and Invisible City, or Urth's Font in the Black Shroud, and the random Dalamud fragment in Coerthas. There's also the mysterious lack of a West Shroud (knowing that Mor Dhona sits directly west of The Shroud, apparently separated by mountains). Will we ever get to see dungeons or instances based off these named and notable locations, much like you did with Snowcloak?

Would you, or are you considering adding alcohol drinks in game where our characters could drink and potentially get drunk? It would be a fun thing for down time and I'm sure RPers would love it as well.

With the cash shop being added a few months ago, you mentioned how funds from the cash shop would be used to help develop certain things in game that you otherwise didn't have funding to do. Could you up date us every so often on what that money is being used for exactly? As someone who has used the cash shop I think it'd be really cool to see what those funds went into and may encourage others to participate in using it as well. For example: purchases from X helped us add Y into the game.

Are you planning to expand the amount of items that can be placed inside of housing?

With so much importance being placed on the DPS shoulders on end game mechanics and with the regulations set forth within the game will we ever see an actual DPS meter with output values placed within the game? Thank you again for a wonderful game!

Can we get Team Twister added to the Gold Saucer?

Team Twister!

Team of 2-4 are assigned a color and have to stand in that color circle/shape to get points before it vanishes. Standing in certain colors gets points while others deduct points from other teams. Can mix it up by dropping pick up with random effects like Mario Kart. :3

Will we see the introduction of optionally harder 4-Man Dungeons in 2.5? Please.
