Letter from the Producer LIVE LXVIII: Ask Your Endwalker Questions!

[Lyth]

What exactly happened during the sundering? Did Hydaelyn kill off all life in the planet and give rise to new sundered entities with those soul fragments, as some people have interpreted, or did the newly sundered Ancients simply live out the rest of their lives on the Source, except without their godlike powers?

[Maneki-Koneko]

The artwork for FFXIV is absolutely stunning. As a big fan of location concept artwork, promotional artwork, patch & expansion release artwork, I would love if these were more accessible in game. Would it be possible if some of these beautiful pieces of artwork were included in-game as paintings [like the sight-seeing log paintings] so we can frame and hang them in our virtual homes?

[LogiStark]

Amazing work and `saludos` from Spain, have been playing since last summer and love it. My question is, we will have more stories about Azem, Venat, Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus? I think that a single-player spin-off/anime/manga about them would be cool.

[Rulakir]

Many had an ethical dilemma with the sundering being both intentional and with knowledge of the future, but Endwalker portrays Venat in an overwhelmingly positive light to the extent she is the only one who comments negatively on her actions. Have you been surprised by the divisiveness surrounding her character?

[Inanna]

After working on FFXIV for over 10 years and looking at working on FFXIV for another 10 years, are the development staff getting bored of working on FFXIV?

[DatJocab]

How do Miqo'te wear glasses?

[Titor]

Why does Sicinius mal Vellutus look so similar to Aulus mal Asina, are they related or clones?

[Raiya]

Can you PLEASE give back Aero III to WHM? It would be nice to have Aero function similar to Thunder and have an AoE DoT option back.

Now that the Final Days have been averted and there are no more Ascians remaining to Rejoin the shards, I assume this means there will be no more Calamities. Additionally, with Zodiark dead, we know that the aetherial currents are slowly starting to re-regulate themselves (or at least, that's what the Fisher Studium quests lead us to believe). With all that in mind, will the climates of zones thrown into extremes, like parts of Central Shroud and all of Coerthas, ever revert to what it once was? Will we ever see a green Ishgard ever again? Also, will we ever see the First's climate and landmasses restored, or will that occur over so long a period it's not feasible to expect it within the lifetime of our current WoL?

[LordSunny]

Is there any more information to be provided regarding the Island Sanctuary and it's release? Also, with more and more furnishings coming out, are there plans to increase housing storage size and the amount of items that can be displayed?
