Ask Questions for Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVII! (Localization Koji Fox)

[Donaria]

After the end credits to Final Fantasy Tactics you see that Ramza and Alma leave there home country together in search of there own adventures, any chance you could add them into the lore of FFXIV either as flavor text or as npc's we could meet?

And as always thank you and your team for all the added lore.

When are we going to get the footwear that the Chocobo-tender in the Gold Saucer is wearing? I want to wear the suit, the mask and the shoes as a full set.

Lore question:

We have learned a lot about primals and primal summoning from 2.0-3.15 but a lot of the revelations seem to be focused on people using aether to turn themselves into primals (i.e. shiva and thordan), but the origins and science behind the beast tribe primals are still a mystery, they seem to be pure aether, but are capable of speech and intelligent thought, and in some cases, rational thought that goes against their god complex (Ramuh). It may be something we find out later, but could you give us some insight into the difference between these sentient "pure" primals, and primals like shiva.

I realy like that the staff added the magic broom stick quests. Any chance of adding more of these type of quest?

P.S. I know you guys received alot of negative feed back about the quest not being "easy" but that\\'s what I liked about the the quests, you know without all the quest markers.

I second this, the negative feedback is from players in which the quest is not targeted for, you can't please everyone, and it was a very memorable questline. Can we get more questlines with quirky challenges like this, but also quests that have the same type of charm that this quest had.

In the Japanese version, Ser Aymeric's title is "蒼剣(Azure Sword)の〜", but in the English version his title is simply "The Blue"-the "sword" part in his Japanese title is missing. On the other hand, Haurchefant's title, "銀剣(Silver Sword)の〜", is translated as "of the Silver Fuller", so in his case the "sword" is still there. Is there a reason Aymeric's title is translated as simply "the Blue" instead of something like "of the Blue Sword"?

I have 3 questions.

1.) Since the next patch will introduce flying Adamantoise, will flying Fenrir soon follow?

2.) I've noticed that Titan, Ifrit, Garuda, Leviathan, and Shiva all have craftable/obtainable weapons that have special effects. (Feathers, rocks, fire, bubbles, ice chunks) Yet Ramuh/Bismark were left out a bit. Is there a possibility that Ramuh/Bismark craftable/obtainable weapons for gamlours can be introduced into the game? Perhaps a Thunderstorm Aura (Ramuh) and Mist Aura (Bismark)

3.) The Beast tribe mounts have music that after a while get plain and boring. Is there a possibility that we could get that changed to the Background music for the mounts to the homes of the beast tribes? Say the Sea Elbst mount would get Novv's home theme.

If you were to add red mage with the next expansion what sort of role would they take? A Melee dps that weaves in magic or a caster with the ability to debuff a target? Or would they end up being a healer similar to white mage or with its own new gimmick like astrologian

Naturally I can understand the desire to handwave some smaller details for the sake of easy story-telling, but putting at least the major NPCs aside, do Eorzeans not speak an entirely different language to those in Othard? Would migrants not need to learn a new language and possibly choose to communicate with fellows in their native tongue?

What is the current status of Coerthas Eastern Highlands and both of the Coerthan Lowlands? Were the Eastern Highlands abandoned similarly to Western Coerthas, with Dawn Vigil meeting the same end as its counterpart? Have the Lowlands shared the icy climate changes that have shaped the Coerthas of ARR and Heavensward that we all know and love, or were they spared the more severe effects due to their lower altitude?

We know thanks to various sources, most notably the monk quests, that Ala Mhigo was a heavily martial nation, famed especially for their melee units in the form of their lancers and monks, with an honorable mention given to their aerial griffon riders. Would it be correct to assume that this preference for melee combat shaped the development of Ala Mhigan spellcasting, and possibly their adaptation of foreign schools of magic?
