How much of the very first Final Fantasy XIV 2.0 screenshot UI is going to make it to the final game and what has been scrapped?

Are there any plans to implement billing via the playstation network? Will playstation users have to use the website to manage billing?

If so, does this mean that you will have alternative methods to credit card payments? Subscription cards available in stores perhaps?

I'm still curious about the job/class system.

I really don't understand how it will play out in the future.

With the current armory system, you can't really have too many jobs branching out from a single class because all of those jobs would use the same weapon and have mostly the same abilities as the associated class.

The alternative would be to only have one job associated with each class, and always create new jobs together with new classes. If this is the case, then there doesn't really seem to be a need for classes at all. At the level cap, everyone will always play as a white mage, and there won't be any need to play as a conjurer.

Please clarify your plans for the future of the class system so that we can understand how you will address these problems.

I tried to find answer about retainers in the lodestone, but there wasn't mention anything yet. We currently in 1.0 have 2 retainers, will we go back to having 1 retainer only?

What is the purpose of the Guardian and Nameday in character creation in ARR ?

In 1.0 these didn't have any effect on your character in-game. It seems pointless to be able to choose your Guardian, and Nameday if there's no effect.

Will these give any special bonuses to our character in ARR ?

How old are Kan-E-Senna and E-Sumi-Yan?

How will loot be handled in Lv.50 dungeons? Before we were on a RNG (Random Number Generator) system. You said in a previous interview that you would be using a new method like a loot table and a Need/Greed/Pass system. Can you go into detail how drops will work? I am just hoping that primary RNG doesn't show it's ugly face again for end game. 5% drop rate for a good piece of gear is no good in any game.

When can we expect Ishgard content? Will there be new classes and jobs that originate from Ishgard?
