Loving the color for the rarity, now to wait someone to whine that its so WoW-ish.

Personally, I love the changes. However I can see the wave of complaints incoming.

I read through again and saw one thing I'm sad about:

The following changes will be made to Gamepad settings in FINAL FANTASY XIV Config:

* The function to bring up the emote list will be abolished.

EDIT: Actually never mind, if we can access the micro menu now, then that means I can still access the emote list, I just won't have quicker access to it.

I'm not sure if by "function" they mean via the gamepad, or via the micro menu, or both. I'd hate to have to type up an emote every time. I usually do, but I often forget what emotes we have and at times it's so much easier to just open the menu, find what you want and use it than remembering how it's spelled. Other than that I can't think of any gripes with these adjustments. I'd love to be able to finally use items from my menu without having to resort to mapping a controller button to it with Autohotkey, or press U each and every single time I wanna pop a potion or ether. The micro space feature they're adding is what I've wanted for ages.

EDIT: But could a dev confirm for us if it's being remove completely or just as an option available to be mapped to a gamepad?

SHINY!

It's a whole slew of desired fixes.
