    MGP to Currency tab?

    It'd be real convenient if I could see MGP under the currency tab on my character view. I mean I can see wolf marks, and allied seals but the new currency doesn't show here. Is it possible?

    While it may not be the exact spot you're referencing, we are considering making it easier than it is now to view all your currency (including MGP) in one location. We've also heard some requests to make it so clicking on your gil on the HUD will cycle through to MGP as well, but we don't have any plans for that at the moment.

    Aww Well, hopefully it'll still happen at some point. Thanks for taking our requests up the chain!

    Ya know if you guys would finish the addon API I'm sure the community would be more than happy to step up to making this, and many more QoL changes, a reality. I know its coming soon but I cant wait :3

    It'd also be kinda nice to be able to view the gil your retainers hold in one spot too.

    The currency tab on the character screen was an amazingly good idea. Unfortunately, it's going to need some modifications; right now, it just doesn't have enough screen real estate to show too many different kinds of currency. FFXI originally had no currency menu. When they finally added one around the ninth or so year of the game's life, there were scores, maybe even a hundred different kinds of currency. Given enough time, the same thing will likely happen in FFXIV. SE will need to be prepared for it!

    So, we'll be able to see all our currency in one location, but it may not be the currency tab, which exists for the sole purpose of letting us see all our currency in one location? Hmmm... I'm actually ok with that so long as it's available somewhere, but I have to admit that just seems a bit odd to me. Or is it just that the currency tab itself is being separated out from the character window? That would be all right, as it really doesn't have any need for the character image/gear to show alongside it.

    Does MGP not being displayed where the other kinds of currency are displayed have anything to do with MGP being the game's "gambling currency" and various national laws about that sort of thing?

    I certainly don't know the laws in every country, but most places, gambling laws only apply to gambling money or something of actual value (and therefore convertible to money). When all that's being won or lost is points that have no meaning beyond the game they're earned in, that doesn't usually count as gambling.

    (And if someplace did actually have gambling laws that pertain to points, that would have come up by MGP being introduced, not by which window they're displayed in.)
