more hairs and body types for different races would be fantastic. i look at some hairs in game that we have and go, “who would use this?”
i think my character looks very original until i find somebody else on my server with a close appearance to my WoL’s own. it’s funny the first time, but after that i’m not really into it.
the only way to “customize” your character past what the game gives you is with mods, but SQ discourages the use of them so like…give people more options!
i also think they should go back and refresh older systems before making any new ones. (the firmament, eureka, etc.) that way veteran players have an incentive to come back to them, which would in turn assist new players who are participating in these old systems.
agree about the tome events there is only one thing i been getting form them since i have everything on those list for years now this last event i did not even try to get the 100 tome item was like its small i will never use it not doing event then rip
About the mounts, one thing I would really like is to be able to "Examine" the mounts (and minions) the way we can look at glamour, so we can look up the name and the fun little jokes in the descriptions.
And yes please events with something to do! My first even right after I joined last year was the delayed Halloween 2021 and having a special dungeon was a highlight! Sure I liked the spooky story too, but having that fun unique instance to do and redo if I wanted more gifts was amazing!
I think the only reason cross DC party/duty finder/roulettes aren't a thing (yet… hopefully) is because to change DC right now you have to completely log out. I've heard their plan is to make it easier to change DC, and I'd hope that means making it as easy as going to an aetheryte like you can for changing your world currently. If they can implement that, or at the very least make it so you don't have to completely log out, I'd imagine party/duty finder and roulettes will also benefit from that. 🤞
Yeah you really hit the nail on the head for changes I'd like to see as well. Especially about more race options. I am a self aware fantasia addict. I don't know for some reason I just can't decide. I used to be a Duskwight Elezen until mid Stormblood and then I kept swapping between that and Au ra, then Duskwight Elezen and Viera, and then on a dare I went femroe and now I keep swapping between Viera and femroe lol. And really the only issue I have with femroe is the lack of makeup options. Viera faces look SO GOOD but the lack of hats get to me (I like cute hats!) so then I go back to femroe and bemoan that I can't have nice eyeshadow with cute freckles!
And I am really looking forward to femHrothgar but the limitations to changing hair color and stuff is really going to get to me I know it (in addition to the inevitable lack of cute hats, but I am hoping their natural hairstyles will appease me) Honestly since Hrothgar are so unique I feel like they really should just open the full creation menu for them at least. I'm sure Jandelaine is up for the challenge! (though opening it up for everyone would be amazing and encourage people to try more unique skin tones since it wont cost money to change if they dont like it)
While I too would appreciate longer events(like they used to) it also would suck for people with a lot of alts(like myself lol).
yeah as a aura raen i want a option what have all the horn Accessories to be the same color than the raen's horn color
Yeah I popped a free Fantasia I had from something just to play around and see what I could make with other races. Ultimately I only changed my eye color, because I am a miquote at heart. It would be NICE though to be able to change the damn eye color freely and I’d love more customization options as it’s fairly limited by today’s standards. Edit to add: oh! Let me skip the damn aesthetician cutscene!!
I would like to see special events, seasonal events, achievement (titles, mounts, outfits) relics, ultima weapons be unlock account wide.
I have been playing for 2 years and made an alt to play with friends on a other data centers, so I don't have to tie-up my main with transfers back and forth.
It kind of stinks not to have all the things I've earned in the game at this poin. I earned the items, not my character, so I see no reason why these cannot be tied to my account and not my character.
From an interview with Yoshi-P that Annie did back before endwalker. He talked about changing the friends list and at the time he said they'll start working on a big overhaul after patch 6.1.. so I'd say we may see it at either 6.56 or next expansion hopefully.
I believe every race should have a muscle slider myself.
and of course a butt slider.
I want butt sliders… I'm an ass man, dammit, gimme more options besides playing Roe and Viera and 2B leggings for a butt that isn't pancake.
Bring the transmog system from WoW into FF14, please.
That moment when you see your name on AvyCattes friend list and you realize the person you met in the dungeon is the real AvyCatte LOL
4:45 I remember this feature being in Everquest II… a game that was released in 2003.
The lack of this qol feature is honestly something that frustrates me the most about FFXIV
disagree with the friend list, I wouldnt want to see my friends list empty and not know who deleted what
but the events really are too mundane and need some spice added, agree, for the right rewards
I just want to be able to send money/items from one character to another!
I think my biggest complaints about the game are that I can't tell what mount someone is on unless I specifically ask them (which is fine if they're not afk), and gear only has a single dye channel (if they're even dyeable in the first place). I'd really like to see a buff or something added that would tell me the name of a mount someone else is on, so that I can look it up and see how to get it. As for the dyes, it's one of my favorite systems in Guild Wars 2 – each piece has up to 4 different dye channels so you can really get your gear looking great!
I have other, smaller complaints about the game, but for the most part those are generally due to the game being so old without having any major overhauls – which can be a good and bad thing at the same time, but really doesn't have any solution!
My personal biggest gripe is housing; particularly to the overwhelming majority who cannot get a house. Apartments suck and not adequate for the 95% that can't get a house. 100 furniture items in a small house is so limiting for the creative and unlucky like me.
Allow me to buy size and furniture limit upgrades for my apartment at an obscene cost, like 10 million for medium size, 20 mil for large, and 5 million for an extra 50 furniture. Maybe if you get all upgrades you could also get an outside deck for gardening or small outdoor furniture for like 30 million gil.
the friend list needs a fixing! and that darn party finder or duty finder! it is real bad! as a tank, i wonder what is worse, dps que or tank ques, cause they both are bad!
and another thing,
awesome vid! 😀 and yes, your evil now hehe
What do they do about ping across data centers
Let's be honest, nearly all of the UI elements needs an upgrade. Starting from the friends list, auction house (marketboard and selling UI with retainers), free company… The list goes on.
Character creation yes!

Sorry for the off-topic question, but could I ask what gshade you're using? Specifically the shader used during the mount section; the colors are so vibrant yet soft, it looks beautiful :>
Listens to them talk about not knowing about certain mounts.
Me: WAIT THERE IS A MECHANICAL HORSE!?
they should change anti hindu, anti pagan lore and stop racial stereotyping Hindus as snakes and elephants.
One that I want so bad, let us save hairstyles and colors to glamour plates as part of outfits, even if it costs gil still I need it.
On the character creation thing. Why are the freckles a FACE PAINT? Why can't we choose freckle options as an extra customization option AND pick from the same colors face paints offer (more would be ideal ofc).
Thigh sliders would also be nice but I know that's asking a lot on top of the butt sliders being so highly requested. lol
Why are hairstyles race locked still? 🙁 Au Ra have some SUPER CUTE hairstyles that I would use on my Miqo'te in a heartbeat. I know some hairstyles have horns attached to them, but if they can adjust hair to different ear locations, then they can remove the horns for hornless races, right? :')
You used to be able to blacklist people from your friends list. You no longer can, and I've no idea why they removed the option! Only if they message you, end up in a party with you, or are recruiting on PF AND the duty they're recruiting for is unlocked on your character. I tried to blacklist someone on PF on an alt, but the duty was locked and… that prevented me from being able to blacklist??? Makes no sense!
For mounts- RIFT had a feature where you could examine a player, and it had tabs to show their gear and the mount they were using at the time. They need something like that in FFXIV!
