Implies that we will be able to get more than one reward. The question is if this is actually the case, (being able to pick 1 reward per tier) or if we are forced to pick only one per week

( I am aware that the screenshots show all but the 1 line rewards being slightly greyed out, though that might be due to an insufficient amount of seals)

The wording sounds like all to me.

Wow, just got through the whole thing, and it has quite an impressive array of good QoL features. Very pleased with that.

(Was going to list some of my favorites, but there's so many...)

New options are available in the Keybind interface.
Switch to HUD Layout 1
Switch to HUD Layout 2
Switch to HUD Layout 3
Switch to HUD Layout 4

Yet I haven't seen anything else about multiple HUD Layouts.

>AST buffs that actually make the job mechanic more powerful, and Nocturnal more attractive to use
>Healer LB no longer causes weakness when raised and removes it from the party

Multiple HUD layouts was a new feature in 3.3.

That's the whole point of glamours, isn't it ?
They cannot make outfit everybody loves. At least they are trying new things.

And tome farming, well, I agree. That's why I won't farm these new tomes until 3.6. I'll just try to get enough gear to clear Alex and Sophia normal.

... I think you mean 4.0?

Huh? QoL means changes that make things easier to manage but don't essentially change how the game is played. Like the change to allow you to buy 99 ventures at once instead of clicking over and over for sets of 5.

The only things that'd be considered QoL in the notes would be that moogle quest having its npcs moved, the door cutscene in aquapolis being changed, tooltip showing full name of long orchestrion songs, the materia melder for estates, that compact version of the lv 6 aetherial wheel, and using food/meds while mounted. Technically not even that last one. And none of these are that significant. But then that's what QoL generally means. The only big example of QoL I can think of is when they added item sorting back in 2.1, was pretty crazy it wasn't there in 2.0.

Basically if something makes you more likely to complete things it's not considered QoL; they're actual balance changes to the game.

edit: just noticed this one change:

* Names cannot consist of two or more punctuation marks used in succession.

So what about names that currently have this? I recently renamed one alt's retainers I'l'l'l'l'l, I''l''l''l''l, I'''l'''l'''l'''l and I''''l''''l''''l as a way to keep track of which was which (1st thru 4th based on how many apostrophes in a row). So will I be made to rename these?

What was wrong with the Aquapolis door cutscene? D: I hope they've added more trolls :3

I loved it. But who knows? People are so touchy with things...but then again, I've never seen a single complaint even on here about it.
