Please allow us to join all three companies

[Dubont]

You know...if they limit us to only 1 company without being able to switch or help our friends on their quests, everyone will probably end up sticking with Uldah...just like with everything else...

[Deminia]

I am very disappointed to hear that we will not be able to change companies. One company might suit us for a while if we are playing one class type, and then later on if we level a different class, another company might be more appropriate.

I fine with restricting us to one company at a time, but not ever being able to switch is not fun at all. I hate being required to choose one or the other permanently. I would not mind if there were limits on how often we could switch, if there were quests required to switch that were challenging, a gil requirement, etc. Just let me have a way to change my mind later in the game.

Bay will probably put better translated one for this one but here's copy/paste of what I got from the JP reps.

こんにちは。
Hello

2点ほどコメントです。
Comment regarding these two

軍票がもらえるクエストで繰り返し可能なものってあるのかな？
For Grand Company quest which you can obtain company seal, are there ones you can repeat?

軍票がもらえるクエストやコンテンツは、パッチ1.19を皮切りに段階的に実装していきます。
With patch 1.19 we will start releasing quests and contents which you can obtain company seal.

正式に所属したら、他の2国のは脱退扱いになって、軍票はなくなるんだろうか
When officially assigned to one country will the other two country be considered released and will the company seal be gone (for those other country)

はい、なくなってしまいます。
ただし、将来用途が発生する可能性も踏まえ内部データとしては保持されます。
Yes it will be gone, but for future there may be possibility to use them so the internal data will be stored.

So "Use 'em or Lose 'em for now"

[Estellios]

Don't forget that there will be airships coming so people won't be completely flocking to the Ul'dah company out of convenience. There's tons of people that are going to go to Limsa or Gridania if you ask around.

BloodLotus, I got from that that they would be "disabled" but they are still saved in the event that we can eventually change companies.

FFXI had airships and teleport spells...people all still flocked to 1 city...which is how linked AHs came about.

[Estellios]

Oh I don't doubt people will centralize in order to have more access to markets/shouts/etc, but it's much different than picking a storyline you want to go through. ie: I pick the Gridania grand company, I go there to do business, but I still come back to Ul'dah at the end of the day.

Jeuno was the center of the world in FF11 and had airships going everywhere, the other places only went to jeuno so by design it was intended to be where everyone gathered.

[Genz]

They may allow us to buy stuff from other companies with an additional cost in seals and/or gils (like FFXI conquest item)

[Xenor]

If the weapons become sellable/tradable in future it would make sense to go with the least popular company and make lots of money from the people who never leave Ul'dah.

[Budi]

Great... So I have to stick to Lominsa? ... makes me sad.
