Ask Yoshi-P and Banri Oda Your Questions for the gamescom 2019 Q&A

If Ancients/Ascians live for eons, how often do they feel the need to reproduce? Since we are referred to as children.

In regards to The Light of Inspiration quest, this caused a lot of confusion for some players, including myself so I am wondering: Why did you allow players to accept a level 79 quest that can only be completed at level 80 and not just deny people to accept the quest until both level 80 was reached and the role quests were completed instead?

Are all souls eternal (as described by the aetheryte guards in the starter cities) or do most dissolve into the Lifestream upon death, with something special about those who can be reborn?

Would it be possible to have Horoscope and Horoscope Helios automatically activate if not manually activated like how Earthly Star works?

Since all mounts have had flying enabled, the two mount roulette options have become effectively interchangable*.

An option was added to allow mount roulette to pull from only favourited mounts (which is certainly appreciated), but rather than relying on this option, which applies to both "Mount Roulette" and "Flying Mount Roulette", would it be possible to simply replace "Flying Mount Roulette" with "Favourite Mount Roulette" and leave "Mount Roulette" unrestricted? This would allow the two roulette options to become distinct again, and provide players with greater flexibility.



*The one difference I notice being that the standard mount roulette is still restricted in the water

Early in the Eden quest series, Urianger utilizes the knowledge he'd gained from Moenbryda to build an aetherial bridge capable of accessing Eden's core.

As this seems far less complicated (and arduous) than building a giant Talos, why was this possibility never even brought up when we needed to reach the summit of Mt. Guilg?

Hello! I wanted to ask about The Hunt, remained in ARR. Since everyone is level 80, it is really easy to kill 50 level hunt, rank A and S. Will there be some level sync (like in FATEs) to make ARR hunts harder to slay?

For Scholar and Summoner, is it possible that we can have an option to combine some abilities that aren't used when our major summons (Bahamut/Phoenix/Seraph) are consolidated during the summon? For example, when Seraph is summoned, an option for Consultation to temporarily overwrite either the summon Seraph button (since it would be on cooldown anyways) or for Summoner Summon Bahamut/Phoenix becomes Enkindle Bahamut/Phoenix for the duration of the summon? Would reduce button bloat while not affecting gameplay. Currently my Scholar in particular has more abilities than can fit on two bars, and it is becoming hard to fit it all together

The final zone makes literary references to Shakespeare's The Tempest and Thomas More's Utopia.

Some of these are obvious, like place-names and locations (EDIT: and the character named Hythlodaeus), but are there any more subtle references that you think are important to notice?

Can we please finally get a Damage meter for raid , either a personal meter or a team meter everyone can agree on like how Duty Record works.
