Any plans to add "Mini Minstrel" companion?

Any plans to make Lalafell only village with many lalafell NPCs, which could be (maybe) accessed by lalafells only?

I have stored all my AF gears in Armorie at INN before final save, but I read that we need to do the story quest to get access to it. Will legacy characters need to do that story quest to get access to Armorie and if they need, then how long will it take to get that quest (any pre-quest requirements)?

Levelling gathering and crafting classes is just as much of a grind as levelling any combat class, repeating the same thing ad nauseum (I love them but as someone who got level 50 in all of them and the luminary tools, even I've gotta say there were times...). When will gathering and crafting classes be able to quest heavily to level up, just like the gathering classes? One guild quest per class every 5 levels aimed at your gathering/crafting discipline, compared to a complete quest grind for the combative classes, seems like way too big a gap...

Can we See some Examples of what kind of stats Materia will add to our gear in FF14:ARR?

How do they compare to the Olde game?

[mbncd]

Will there be any FATE's aimed towards crafters and/or gatherers?

[mbncd]

Will it ever be possible to trade in our ARR PC CE codes for digital upgrade codes? Preferably through some sort of automated system but even talking to a customer service rep to do it manually would be better than nothing. Many people have already bought the PC CE for ARR to upgrade old accounts and word is not spreading very far that that will not work. Are you guys planning on doing anything to make this right?

What gender is our chocobo? I was thinking of naming my chocobo after the wife's name of the anime character I'm basing my main off of, but then I thought is it even a she!? It may seem an obvious answer, but oftentimes male "parts" are censored off to avoid offending others. Although this question may seem ridiculous, I would like to know! Thank you.

Where does Samurai stand? Is it currently being worked on? What class do you plan to stem it out from? Since jobs use the same weapon as a class, it would have to be a new class correct? Samurai are known for their expertise in katanas and archery. Will we only get katana? Would it be possible to have two different kinds of Samurai? Perhaps one that stems from archer that uses bow, and one that stems from a new class using katana? I personally loved being well equipped for archery and katanas playing Samurai in almost every game that had them. Please just say Samurai is being developed!
