Please continue to send in your ideas for the dev. team!
Didn't the last Letter from the Producer explain that there were different teams working on different things?

Each team focuses on certain game content or a particular system, and all teams’ tasks are ongoing simultaneously. There are VFX, animation, and cutscenes as well, so quite a few teams. Within each, there are staff members whose job it is to carry out the tasks of each patch, and others who focus on the large-scale elements and core of the game.
I know that linkshells aren't related to battles but it is frustrating to see that it doesn't have a dev tag.

The following threads express the want and need for the expanding of linkshell capabilities:

There is clearly a want for the recognition of this issue.

The reason, I'm assuming, this was thrown into [Dev 1024] is specifically because putting it under a battle related issue would make it more visible. [Linkshell Options] really needs it's own dev tag by this point at the very least. It's bad when it's gotten to the point where the player populace is petitioning for a problem to just get a dev tag recognition and not necessarily a fix to the problem. Considering Yoshida's words on how the teams are separated, "Battle system priority" doesn't seem like a legitimate reason anymore as there should be two different teams working on linkshell issues(the UI team) and the battle system (the battle system team).
