Umm, there is mention of 1.21 at the end of the letter.

Something about trash somehow being treasure...

Given that by 2.0 chocobos will be in fact be combat companions, the groundwork for the system that will more than likely be their equipment setup is... Pretty meaningful to me?

Some people on this forum are absolutely disgusting.

Their attitude and whole view towards Yoshi P and the rest of the XIV team are so convoluted and sick that they don't show a single piece of compassion of care toward the people trying to make the game better.
While these letters do not represent or give much information toward FFXIV as a product, they do give us an insight to the developers, the people shaping this game, and further bridges that gap of communication that often is missing between the community and the developers.
Many people here can't even seem to fathom the amount of work put in by these individuals, but apparently feel the need to launch a personal and offensive attack against them.
The developers are not the problem with this game, it's the small number of narrow minded individuals that spoils an otherwise great community.

Now, if you forgive this outburst. I'm going to retreat into "viewing" mode, what I spend the majority of my time doing here due to the attitude and views of said individuals.

I would like to say thanks to the developers, community reps and community members here on the forum that put the time and effort into helping Eorzea become a better place.

you know what?
they should just scrap the English new years letter next year, problem solved
you guys don't deserve it anyway

Maybe then I won't get all my hopes up then. I mean that's what I check the lodestone for, UPDATES on the game and what's to be expected.

Don't take this as a personal attack to you or the team. I respect what they do for this game, but this is something I don't care for. What's so wrong with that?

Wow, there's a few horrible people in this thread it seems.

I for one enjoyed reading this letter - it's a shame Yoshi keeps getting ill - but atleast it looks like he had a lot of fun with New Years celebrations!
