PSVita Remote play issues

[VisRalis]

o/ Vita (1st gen) player by day (office) & PS4 by evening (home) here xD
I quite like it and have done all content up to before A1S on Vita remote play.
When wifi connections are good and working ofc.

Re: #1 The rear touch pad truly was the hardest bit to get used to but its worked around by remapping hotkeys on the crossbar so you don't have to use the touch pad as much (relatively) at first.
I ended up remapping L1/R1 to be both my the PSV's rightside R1 & touch R2 (now->L1).
It's quite easy now to access the entire cross bar with the PSV rear touch pad.
Also you do get used to sticking your finger out the same place every time and it's now not even a second thought accessing the right areas of the rear touch pad.

Re: #3 Its come down for me to use the dictionary memory to construct my sentences, still slow but short msgs work. Doesn't make the game unplayable or communication unworkable once enough text has been memorized.
Biggest issue is the auto-translate... since there's no TAB button I can't seem to figure out how to use auto-translate with the on-screen keyboard.

The PSV is a working platform for FFXIV by remote imho.
(Assuming if your wifi & LAN connection to your home PS4 is fast & stable)

The PSV is limited with text entry primarily but I've not faced any problems playing FFXIV doing solo/group content.

Having to hold the large (I'm using the 1st gen PSV and it is chunky!) up for long periods of times may be uncomfortable (rest every 15 minutes rt? *cough* no?).

Biggest pain in the butt was redoing the HUD layout =.= and enlarging everything to 140% so I don't have to squint so much.
