Patch n: Quality of Life

[Squintina]

I don't know about you but I consider QOL to be changes that help something that can be done currently to some extent but make it easier.
While I'm not saying butt and other appearance changes wouldn't be nice (I'm sure lots of people would appreciate them), I wouldn't categorize them as QOL.
So here's how I would reorganize your list:

Non QOL: Either additions, visual bug fixes, or NEW feature

• body types - every individual of a given race is an exact replica of the other (save for height) in 2014....really?
• hair styles - being asked so much I lose count of it sooner than the Sabotender Emperatriz loses count of her needles
• facial hair - see hair styles
• makeup and facepaint - should not be the same, also see hair styles
• tattoos - both for body and for face, also see hair styles
• relic weapons - please find another way to keep old content relevant
• conversation options - is bad enough that our PCs are completely mute, at least give us a few dialogue choices please
• NPC relationships - I don't even mean romance, but roleplaying is more than just being tank/healer/dps
• clipping - seriously, fix it (at the very least, for the love of Menphina, if you have races with tails and "weird" ears, have alternative versions of gear that properly accomodate to these)
• those butts - yes, I went there, as they're also completely ridiculous in my opinion

Somewhat QOL if it's just asking for actual small improvements (like asking for a mass desynth, for example, as it means not clicking 3x per item) but asking for a complete rehaul is usually beyond the scope of a QOL fix

• housing - not even going into details, could use a complete rework
• desynthesis - having to balance improving this, in a game that's built on a strong multi-class system is simply ridiculous
• chocobo - skills, usage, training, coloring... pretty much a complete overhaul again, because none of these is fun

QOL:Improvements on existing systems that make that system a little less annoying such as less clicking, or more information, or making things easier to find.
The stuff that would actually show up in a QOL patch:

• storage options - immense amount of stuff, insanely inadequate ways and space to store them
• glamour system - the way it works, the availability of items, the restrictions
• crafting materials - at the very least, move them from boss chests to side ones, replacing potions in dungeons
• friend requests - why do we have to not accept once and then decline too to make it disappear?
• inventory - not being able to reorganise when doing certain things because why exactly?
• handling alternative characters - please let us send stuff to our alts, at least those on the same server
• ordering lists - while several features were introduced to help organisation, the emote list, for example, is still completely random
• duty registrations - can't be done while chocobo is summoned, withdrawn when summoning chocobo... why do we have the companion again?

A QOL patch would be nice, but it'd be easier for them to focus on what to develop if we focus on actual QOL, not rehauls and non-QOL improvements.
