Inventory space! Yes another thread, I'm bored

And crafting items. A dedicated crafting mat storage system would be a huge help. The game has 1760 different crafting mats (going by the number of listings under "materials" in Libra Eorzea's item database), or nearly twice that many if you have both NQ and HQ. That's a huge amount if they're stored as items in our retainers' inventory. But if there was dedicated storage that just needed to remember how many NQ and how many HQ we had of each, then storing all the crafting mats in the game would only take up about 32 GB of storage space per 5 million characters.

(And if they made that storage something you unlock when you get your first crafting class to level 15 or so, they wouldn't even have to allocate that space for all characters, just the ones who get into crafting. It was just last summer they reached a cumulative total of 5M subscriptions started since launch. I suspect it'll be a while before they have 5M crafters.)
