Cutscene text position

[Enkidoh]

It was the same in FFXIV version 1.0, it's to fit into the MMO style interface, and before you pass judgement, FFXI did not even have that, all text including quest/cutscene dialogue was in the same text window you used for chat in the bottom left corner of the screen.

And it needs to be said FFX threw away the FFI-IX style text box window completely with dialogue text just shown on screen (again at the bottom of the screen), as well as FFX-2, FFXII, FFXIII and it's sequels, and FFXV.

You can always move the quest dialogue text box to the top of the screen or to anywhere else on the screen in the HUD menu anyway (and even now change it's style to that classic dark blue window with white text resembling the 'old school' FF games too!) so really, this is a non-issue.
