In one of his last interview, Y-P use the word "casual" and "Small Scale", he also talk about PVP as a "niche" content, it's pretty unlikely "Open World PVP" to occure.
From the way i see it, this only proves how little he understands what PvP is actually about. PvP in MMORPGs is NOT casual content by nature. If you want a casual experience in that direction, you might as well play League of Legends or Doter 2.

The good thing about having a properly functioning PvP system is that it allows you to design Classes in a way that feel unique from one another, since under normal circumstances, MMOs design their classes to function in both PvE and PvP content alike. If i had to guess, Squeenix tried to just take the easyroad on this and shot themselves in the foot for doing so, and now that the wound is actually infected, since it has been left to rot for 2 expansions now, i doubt they will treat it at all. might as well cut off the whole leg and straight up tell people that this game doesnt support PvP (honestly tho, i wouldnt like this to happen.)
