The last time we asked this they sang the XIV anthem of "ps3 limitations"
So maybe, if we're persistent, in stormblood they will say "ps4 limitations"

Also this is one of my biggest wants for the game. It sucks having to look at the corner of your screen when you're talking to someone instead of their character, really makes all the emotes worthless except for screenshots, idling, or simply when no one is actually talking.
