Idk I think we're underestimating the amount of info we have gotten. I think if you go back and start nitpicking, we've learned quite a bit.

1) Limit Breaks

2) More details on alpha/beta

3) New interface

4) More mounts (Magitek!!)

5) Stuffz about Crystal Tower and PvP

6) New TP mechanics

7) Golden Saucer

8) Gameplay videos (another due in a week or two)

9) Cross-server content finder goodies

10) Art for Odin, Ramuh, and Leviathan

11) More info on Chocobo Raising

12) No more blinking!

13) Jumping mechanics

14) Beginner questing information

15) Low-level dungeon content

16) etc etc etc.

Seriously if you make a list of crap its quite a bit. Its like they have to give every detail of the game away (who does that anyway) in order for ppl to be satisfied.

Most of which we wouldn't know if not for attendees shooting video.

Most interviews were identical and brief.

But SE controls whether video is allowed to be shot or not. Thats the key.

And again, those videos would not be possible if SE did not release that much information at events.

While the interviews are highly similar, that is more the fault of the interviewer than it is of the interviewee. It is up to the interviewer to ask the right questions, not the same questions as everyone else.

We have received a lot of information about 2.0. I don't understand people who want to know every detail about a game before it is released, it ruins the whole sense of awe. Honestly, if someone is on the edge of whether or not to try the game, what more information, beyond what is already known, do they have to release to convince them? Maybe more in-game footage of the combat system and graphics quality.

We already know the main elements being updated/added and we'll learn the rest when the game comes out.

Well, interviewers can ask all the questions they want, if SE isn't going to answer them then it doesn't matter.

I'm not saying I'm not grateful for what we do know, but it's hardly what I would say is a "flood" of information.

My concern is that, yes, we know all these things but SE doesn't need to sell us on trying out 2.0.

How many of those new customers they want know any of this? They're the ones who need to be flooded and that won't happen through videos shot by fans.

Who said there'd be no flood bahahaha

It's you cause i'm not feeling a "flood". I feel as I have been lied to. And this isn't the first time. If you call that pathetic trailer and random chit chat about things that are gonna happen sometime in the future, a "flood", then SE certainly have you fooled. At least that is the way I feel at this moment. I'm sorry to feel this way, but I do. Where the f*** is the info? Where are the weekly updates on 2.0? Was that mistranslated??

Do you honestly think anyone outside of the FF fanboys (including myself) playing at this moment gives a flying f*** about the list you mention?
