Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XX! (FFXIV: ARR)

[Korbash]

Will our private room in our FC get bigger at some point? Since the devs have not fulfilled at all the need of the populace for housing people have no other choice but to have their room to fulfill their housing need, so it'd be nice if it could get extended, the ability to get a bigger room or to get a second or a third room per example, to have an apartment with numerous room. So, any plan about that?

Hi!
Would it be possible sometime in the future to have your minion summoned at the same time as your companion?
A dream would even to be able to have them in instanced duties as well.
personally my minions tend to get a bit neglected because of my frequent use of my brave chocobo.

Hi,
Could we get some recent news about the european data centre?
Didn't heard anything new about it since the annunciation.

[Garrick]

Can we get an update on possible new companions in Heavensward?

When are you going to address the bait issue for fishers it is long over due having to fill our normal inventory full of baits is a very poor design.There has to be sumthing better you guys can come up with maybe like mounts and minions work is worth exploring to maybe find a solution???

There are a large number of items on the Market Boards which were held over from 1.0, yet no longer serve a purpose as of 2.0. Among these are multiple varieties of materials like slag and moraines, old beastman currencies, and various crafting materials which can neither be harvested nor used in any recipe. With 3.0 quickly approaching, will these junk items finally be de-listed, discontinued or phased out entirely? Are there plans for any of them be re-introduced or made useful?

I have duplicates of Rare Cards from playing so much Triple Triad. It's a shame to either toss them or sell them to the card trader at the Gold Saucer. At some point in the future, will cards be finally Tradeable or Sellable? It would be nice to give the cards as gifts or rewards to friends.

This ^^

Alternatively, will you be able to desynthesise Triple Triad cards in order to obtain rare items (similar to the card mod abilities from Final Fantasy VIII)?


I think some of the new jobs could even lend themselves to this idea, for example, the Astrologian (being "card masters" in using the divining deck) could have a card mod ability to obtain these rare items from Triple Triad cards. Making the class useful outside of the battlefield as well.

Summoner
Can Summoner be separated from the Scholar since it makes no sense for them to be a DoT Poisoning Magic
Can Summoner get Spirit Calling Elementalist/Summoning Magic since it fits the image of a Final Fantasy Summoner.

Can we have some epic enemy or rival recurrent NPCs that are human-sized? Or even a lala!... It's a bit of... Boring to always see monsters monsters monsters... (The job quests battles and their music had me a good feeling about this... But yet FFXIV stills lacking of non-monster real enemies)

What about perhaps work into some idea of an adventurer that got too tired of cooperating with the rest adventurers and went to the solo side, levelling all of his/her jobs and challenging randomely adventurers through all the maps of Eorzea? ( Could be nice enemy, using different job skills or different jobs, even changing at time, could appear and attack you everywhere, surprising you, except safe areas)

Could we have an update on the system changes to allow Chocobo being summoned, while we wait on Duty Finder?
