Good day, Suteru,

You're in luck! The page is about to go live!

I checked with marketing, who told me that they're going to make it public within the day (Japanese time).

Head over to the...

Good day, Phafi,

Thank you for your suggestion!

I agree that this page is not terribly up-to-date. Since switching to monthly patches, we have been unable to dedicate as much time to...

Good day, Johnb,

Thank you for your report!

The text for the key item was provisional. My understanding is that it should be available in November, and the help text should be correct in the...

Good day, Rosalie,

Good eye on Raving Opposum! I've gone ahead and fixed those two entries, so they should be appearing properly in November.

As for the designation-related bug, that's not...

Good day, radarbabyeater,

Thank you for your report! Unfortunately, this is not a localization issue, and I have no say over in-game mechanics. If this is something you feel strongly about, I...

Hi everyone!

Today is the last day that I can make changes for the November patch, and I've gone ahead and fixed everything I could. Some of these I was unable to, particularly those related to...

Uh, where is this NPC located?

Edit: Never mind, I found him. Let me ponder what to do about this.

Edit 2:
I asked around a bit, including getting the advice of one of our Spanish translators...

It really depends a lot on the context. We have a list of stock NPC names that we draw from whenever we have characters who are relatively unimportant in terms of lore--for example, Affi and Dremi in...

I'll see if I can get this changed, but changing gender pronouns involves touching a part of the program that I don't have access to.

That's...really specific, and unfortunately not something...

As of September, there will only be one Bouncing Bertha! I've renamed the Wanted NM.

Good day, everyone,

As you know, the final chapter in Rhapsodies of Vana'diel will be coming in a short time, and I'm excited beyond belief to help bring the conclusion of Iroha's saga to you. I...

Good day, Economizer,

Sorry for not getting back to you about this earlier. I'm unable to answer all your questions, but I can definitely hit back on this one:



I'm in no position to judge...

Good day, Rwolf,

Thank you for your report. I was able to replicate the issue internally and fix the text. The overflow error should be fixed in the next patch.

Regards,

Unelonborro...

Good day, Johnb,

I think I figured out the problem. The EN is a bit unclear on what exactly you are trading for what.

You ask Ornery Dhole "Learn about exchange services," at which point he...

Good day, Gman,

I can confirm that the help text in the English is incorrect and will be fixed for the June version update.

Good day, Ophannus!

Let me get to your questions one by one.

雲蒸竜変, pronounced "Unjo-ryohen" (for you kanji fiends out there, the third character is actually prounced "ryo" in this...

Good day, Johnb,

Thank you very much for your report!

I have fixed the help text for these two items, and they should be appearaing problem in the June version update. For the Bagua Mitaines...

Good day, larrymc,

Thank you very much for the report! There was a macro error in the original text which I have rectified. The proper item should be displaying in the dialog box in the June...

Good day, Edyth,

Thank you very much for pointing this out!

I've decided to change the help text to refer to her as a Hume, because we have to take into consideration what a player may or may...

Good day, Tidis,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

You are correct that the Japanese doesn't specify ranged attacks. I've adjusted the help text and it should be displaying...

Good day, everyone,

For those of you looking for more story, don't worry--this is the shortest of the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel chapters, and there is much more to come in the patches ahead!
...

I'll like you to decide if she's a better waifu than Arciela, but since the patch releases in less than a day I'll tell you that she's a bit more stoic!

Good day, Dawezy!

The puppetmaster stuff was a bit before me time, but there may be someone around who can remember how they chose the names. Almost certainly someone in localize named them,...

Good day, Ophannus!

As for your first question: here we go:

Xzomit: ZOH-mitt
Hu'Xzoi: who-ZOI
Pso 'Xja: SEW-ja
Abdhaljs: AB-dolls

As for our unusual naming tendencies, you'll notice that...

Good day, everyone,

I have some more time to answer your questions now that my work for the May patch is done. In terms of text volume, it's approximately equal to the November patch, when the...
