Trim/Replace 1, Revise 1, Add 1

[Shurrikhan]

If you could pick one system, feature, or mechanic each to...

1. Trim/Replace entirely,
   
   
2. Revise/Polish, or
   
   
3. Add to the game...

Which would you pick, how would you do so, and why?

From others posting on this thread. Not my own suggestions.
No, simply letting people know early on what all has already been mentioned is not breaking my own rules...
It's just the at-a-glance / catch-up list.

• Limit Breaks (with something more substantial and job-personalized)
• Glamour Dresser (with uncapped, automatic appearance storage, etc.)

Trim FF14

Revise Forspoken

Add FF7: iOS Before Crisis Core: SOLDIER edition (introducing new Battle Royale mode)

[Absimiliard]

Trim: Group utilities (less arbitrary gimping, easier to balance, able to make jobs complex again)
Revise: Combat flow (i.e. no more two-minute meta)
Add: More customization options (i.e. Garlean third-eye, Hrothgar being able to stand upright, scaleless Au Ra chins, Highlander eyebrows, HATS FOR THE HATLESS, etc.)

[Oizen]

1.Replace the current Limit Break system with something more substantial and personalized per player, like the PVP limit breaks.
2.Revise how jobs play in non-cap level content. Level Sync feels like ass, and jobs are not designed for lv 1-50 in mind anymore, and a lot of hastily done balance changes have negatively impact content at this level range.
3.Add more job customization and player agency systems, better gear customization outside of socketing two redundant types of Critical Hit Materia.

[Szylver]

Trim: PS4 support for better graphics.

Revise: Combat should be faster at lower levels, some skills need to be removed and others reworked or combined to eliminate button bloat.

Add: South American servers. That way we don't bother NA players with our ping.

Trim ARR
Revise level at which you learn skills for all jobs. Getting raidbuffs at 50, but having core of your rotation locked at 70+ makes no sense.
Add Kaiten

Trim/Replace entirely, - Submersibles.

Revise/Polish, - Adventurer Plate System... It's good, but a little buggy. They've already started to add unique Adventurer plates tied to completing certain content, expand on this more.

Add to the game... - Dungeoneering. IMO this game desperately needs something to combine these systems, e.g., crafting/gathering with combat, and I mean to the degree beyond "Go farm some skins in the open world"

- Replace Glamour Dresser
Replace with an improved one. Square? mentioned something about that they can't I believe cause coding issues? but we all know players want this.

- Revise Housing
The interface is worse then a burning house... Improvements on how Furniture's can be placed should have happened years ago. Increase Furniture slot cap of every Room/House/Apartment's. There's just so much you can do to improve housing.

- Add to the Game Kaiten
I want this back beyond anything else. Once the skill is reinstated, I can leave the forums and return to grinding Fates for 9 hours straight instead of 1 ( yes, I am that kind of a player... and it prolly will never return RIP ).
