Hello! As a huge fan of the game, I am very appreciative for these forums and for the increased frequency in which the development team as been openly communicating with us, the players.

One group I personally would absolutely love to hear from on the SE side is the creative team~ the story-writers, concept artists, system and scenario designers, etc. To my knowledge there isn't an official English-produced behind the scenes look at the game. I would love to know what inspired the original and final concepts for the races, the world, certain monsters, as well as little random fun tidbits.

Are there any plans to produce something like this?

Very interested in this. I would love to have an English book about the lore, concept and design of FFXI.

Heck, even a good translation of the lore-style books that FFXI produced over the years. Huge chunks of the background of the game world never made it into any language but Japanese, other than fan translation (Elmer the Pointy being a big example).

Speaking of Elmer, I do believe he's living in Japan now... *hint hint*
