    Where can I submit question for the upcoming News Letter 2022?

    Since he said this newsletter will include info concerning ffxiv and the next 10 years, I really want him to address some things people have been talking about for years.
    This includes:

    Hairstyles: Why haven't we gotten some NPC hairstyles such as Hilda, Ryne, Yugiri, Lyse? - Will we be seeing these eventually?

    Character creator: The character creator could really use some updates and focus. Maybe update some of the old hairstyles, add more face options and add features like allowing us to have more than one makeup option on (ex: eye makeup and freckles, etc). Allowing us to change our eyebrow color separately from our hair color would be nice too.

    The Dye System: How come we can still can only dye part of our outfits and can this be improved in the future to be like other mmos? For example Guild Wars 2 or something where you can pick which part you want to dye. (I'm sure there's better examples but that's all I could think of atm). Also why are we not allowed to dye NPC outfits?! I understand keeping it lore friendly or whatever with their outfits but.. I mean people can do that anyway? why not just let people who want to dye it, dye it.

    I understand these are all cosmetic related and I'm sure some people consider this stuff the last thing to be looked into, but I personally think it's a really important part of gameplay and I think these things need improving badly and they've been ignored/put on the back burner long enough. If anyone else has anything else to add please do!

    *If some of these have already been addressed, please kindly update me. :'D

    I agree, I really think these are some very important questions that deserve to be answered.

    I'm just really looking forward to him giving us an answer on any of these 3 things, seriously. I haven't played long but from just looking at the hairstyle mega thread people have been wanting answers for years and the character creator is so basic you have twins running around everywhere

    Sadly, based on previous ones, you will often find that the community team will gravitate to positive, fun, and fluffy questions to give him. They might slip in one or two harder ones that they already have plans for. Things they don't plan on are rarer answered.

    Don't forget you are talking to a Japanese person, so manners and politeness matter. 'Please' and a more positive spin on the words helps you get chosen! Rather than accusatory "why don't you" and "other games have" try to write it as "Glamour is so important to many people, multiple dyes would open up a lot more fun and allow people a lot more creativity, could you please consider implementing a way to have multiple dyed panels on items. Thank you."

    I will hope your questions are touched on, nevertheless. If not, I am sure they will be read. Mine... I will be happy if it's read, I don't expect mine would be answered live.

    I did see the rules after I posted it! Dx but I'm hoping they don't look passed it because of that, I just feel like reposting 1 at a time would be spammy. you're probably right, my questions are kinda big so they might be reluctant to bring them up and address them live idk rip

    i think they've said why there's only 1 dye "channel" for gear - it's the way the gear data is stored as it's in your inventory. they have to limit the amount of data on your character. it's tied into the inventory system which also needs a total overhaul. but i doubt we will see it at this point in the game's life.

    Oh did they? I'll have to see if I can google search it, I am really curious why we've had the same dye system for so long. It is probably something that can't be fixed without a whole new game tho
