It would be good to note that XIV's lead battle designer wont be moving over to XI until after the 2.0 launch.Quote:

I can only imagine the stress he endured while making FFXIV and an expansion for FFXI at the same time with mostly the same team.
I wish you all the best in his future endeavors and enjoy your retirement. -

Thanks to him for all the masterpieces he worked on (FF, Xenogears, Chrono, etc.). Wish him best luck.
