Famitsu interview with Yoshida after NA's FanFest

Quote:

---

•One staff member actually proposed a "Intermediate Hall" (due to having Novice Hall) to Yoshida. Where it teaches rotations to players. Yoshida was initially quite "meh" over the feature, but recently began to think that maybe it's a good idea.

Finally???

That would go very well with the level jump potion, force them to do the hall of the intermediate before they can do dungeons.

DF players already prove you wrong, doing story dungeons doesn't teach people how to play, otherwise ice mages wouldn't be a thing.

Our best bet, both for people who level with potd/fates and people who level boost, is that they go forward with the hall of the intermediate, and maybe make it mandatory.

On North American servers maybe. So not really proved wrong, like I said they play as they go with level sync seeing what each and every skill does.
And I learned how to play through story dungeons. Didn't take long for me to find out Umbral Ice refreshed my MP and using Blizzaga gives me Umbral ice III instantly when I'm dishing out fire spells, so little joe from WoW can easily pick up on it.

Doesn't matter if you're not in a NA server, the point stands that we need a better tool to teach players, and they already proposed one in that same interview, that would at least solve the issue of level boosting and people spamming 3 buttons in instances all the way to 60.

I dunno NA player base is usually mocked by JP's
Tonberry went to hell during savage raids because NA's transferred over thinking they could get easy clears because they hear how much better the playerbase is on JP servers. So it's a datecentre problem to be honest, NA's can't even do alliance raids right, they still call out who's going to be MT but I digress, only ever seen a few questionable things in DF during my time on Tonberry.

But yes I'm onboard for tool tips and teaching aids for rotations, It'll a ton because I still need to perfect some rotations for end game stuff.

Just remember it demotivate me continue to play :/

So who said there was 2 monks again?

I'm very excited about the jump potions. i am currently reluctant to create alts because i don't want to take them through 2.0-3.0 storyline again. but with the jump potions, i can create 2-3 alts and start at level 60, possibly at Stormblood storyline as well
