[2024.09.28] Live letter wishlist

[Raikai]

My wishlist? Do not spend half of the live letter recapping thinks we know and don't spend 15 minutes on a single slide explaining why Koana's hair is green.

On a serious note, the only particular thing I'd want is not happening, at least not anytime soon, and is talking about what they want for jobs in 8.0.

[BabyYoda]

We just want a solution not other questions

[Ramiee]

This will decide if I stay or leave. They ruined my main job for the last time.

>MNK melee main
>BRD phys range main (2.0-5.0)
>BLM/SMN caster main

You get used to it.

>MNK melee main
>BRD phys range main (2.0-5.0)
>BLM/SMN caster main

You get used to it.

I am used to it but I no longer want to pay to watch the things I like getting ruined. First my character and the MSQ, and then my job. If they're not going to fix it I just don't care anymore.

I want AT LEAST 30 minutes on job design. 80% of the content in this game is only fun if the jobs are fun, and right now, a lot of them are not fun.

Tell me how you're going to make tanks more reliant on the group and less formulaic, tell me how you're going to make healers less of a chore to play, tell me about people's thoughts on the two minute meta, tell me about why you thought it was a good idea to give every healer the EXACT same 91-100 ability progression.

If you can't tell, I'm really burned about the awful healer state in DT. If he doesn't talk about them at all, I'm done and not coming back.

Could literally give less than two shucks about the story if the jobs are bad. Fix the jobs.

Wish list:
- Discussing the direction the story will go
- Healer issue acknowledgment
- phys ranged role issues
- Maybe talking about what they’re looking at doing for future job balances/adjustments

Please god not something vapid like ‘look how high def these tacos are’ or ‘let’s spend 40 minutes talking about individual pixels on a character’s face’ lol

I just want something to do that isn't capping tomes or raids or savage raids. Even a beast tribe or society as it's called now. Give me something. I hate Bozja and Eureka. I think they are some of the worst pieces of content we have ever had, and even I am like, give me your new thing I'm going to hate. At least it's something to do.

Something differing from the norm

[Khryseis_Astra]

- 7.1 storyline teasers… hopefully more Krile, interdimensional key, and something that starts leading us down to the South Sea Isles and Meracydia for 8.0. But I don’t expect to see much for the first patch… the later patches will probably have more on that transition.
- Plans for job updates, though again I honestly don’t expect to see anything major until the run-up to 8.0.
- Please tell us the housing item increase will be 7.1 and not pushed to a later patch.
- Explain what is meant by “housing mirage” and when we’re getting it.
- Brief update on the state of the planned character graphic update fixes, and a more specific detailing of exactly what problems they’re planning to address and when
- New gear, housing items, and for the love of the Twelve, some more of those contest winning hairstyles and when we can expect to see them!
- Alliance Raid… we get that in 7.1 right?

I would like more information on possible mid-core/medium challenge difficulty. Its either easy or savage currently. Although they won't say it I would like a brief acknowledgement of the feedback from players dislike of msq and wuk lamat sidelining us. Something that may give some hope to a course correction in storytelling going further.

As much as people will yell at me for this I don't care I have to say it. I don't often call for nerfs but Picto needs a nerf. Badly. It is impacting other DPS jobs now since there is always a picto at this point in rouls and stuff. They their damage is way too high when I can't always get a full openee off on a mob or we are skipping more and more mechanics with bosses at lvl 100 in dungeons and raids.

Sorry, Picto needs a rebalancing. When you have 9/10 DPS queue in as one, there is a reason that is more than its fun to play. (For the record I like the job mechanically, I think its just too high for dps output)
