Ask Naoki Yoshida Your Questions for the PAX East 2023 Panel

Will we ever get HUB vendor menus cleaned up? (ie, Radz/Eulmore; menus for tomestone related stuff being bloated and unwieldy to navigate)

I saw in a post not so long ago someone asking an AI if it were possible for a lalafell to be able to eat an entire chicken in a single sitting, and working out size differences, the AI came to the answer of no, however it stated that there was no "Official Lore" answer. Could we maybe get an official answer on this today, if a Lalafell could indeed eat an entire chicken whole in a single sitting, or, was the AI right ??

The Duty Support system have been fantastic for players that want a solo experience! Throughout our journey my girlfriend and I have used Duty Support before playing with other players, to preserve the first time experience. We just wish we could group together and with our favorite characters too. Will Duty Support ever allow 2 or even 3 people to play together, while having the characters we've met throughout our journey fill the other roles?

Players seem concerned about jobs getting simpler. Have you thought about a simple mode and an advanced mode which returns stormblood era things like Blood of The Dragon and healer attacks?

Will we ever see group queue for casual PvP matches so that we can grind out the rewards with our friends? :.)

Will you do Final Fantasy XIV x Final Fantasy XVI crossover?

Is there any chance we could get a daily roulette for Rival Wings the way we have one for Frontlines? I've enjoyed playing it when I've had the chance, but it's so hard to queue into and I feel like a daily roulette could help fix that problem.

Two Questions:

1) Since the release of Endwalker we've seen the Dev Team discuss more frequently about the 10-year future of FFXIV. What future project are you personally most excited about?

2) (To Yoshi-P): Will you please join with Soken to play and sing "Close in the Distance" with an Otamatone at Vegas Fanfest 2023?

Since ARR, we've had many new jobs join the roster of playable jobs. FFXIV is a game that prides itself that you can play as many jobs as you'd like on one character. However, at end game it becomes increasingly difficult to gear all the different jobs due to the gearing system staying pretty much the same since ARR, such as tomestone weekly cap, savage gear locked to one change a week, and 24 man alliance one loot per week. Are there any plans to change how gearing is obtained for those that want to play different jobs in the end game?

Can we get a new design for chocobo stables? It's big and an eye sore next to all the new stuff.
