ohai you posted my video before I got a chance to

I found it in another forum ahah :D

Not really enough about 1.2... come on, 2.0 is a year away still.

Having said that... those animations look sick and the Jump is actually quite natural. Love the gobbue mount, super epic.

A: Not at all. Currently only 40 characters can be displayed at once now. If you have the recommended PC for the current version, it will display more characters at once. If you have lower spec PC, you can turn off some extra settings and still be able to enjoy everything.

Q: What was that crown looking graphic the character was wearing?
A: It’s an achievement reward coming for 1.20. The gold looking one will be harder to get. Hope you’re all looking forward to 1.20!

Q:Will any kind of things be implemented so we can change the equipment on our chocobos?
A:Actually, we have already decided on some armor from each of the three city-states. If you are curious how you can obtain it, think along the lines of how you obtained your personal chocobo…

Q: Will there be any kind of special item given to players that start subscribing now and keep playing through 2.0?
A: In addition to the achievement that will be related to the Seventh Umbral Era, we are thinking about giving players a special mount… (Showed some early test footage of characters riding enemies like Ahriman, Drakes, and Goobues!)

Q: Will you add in some just-for-fun minigames like the ones from the Gold Saucer in FFVII, or card games like the Triple Triad in FFVIII be added?
A: Although not included in the 2.0 document, there are plans for adding minigames like the ones from the Gold Saucer. We are thinking of adding them as the next phase for entertainment after housing is introduced! As for card games, it will be important to go for both the entertainment value and reward aspect of the games. They are being considered and if a good plan comes up, we would definitely like to go for it.

Q: Will there equipment with special magic-type of effects on them? Or spells like Regen in the future?
A: Yes, these are definitely on the way and planned for 2.0.

Q: We are dying to know which class gets which job... White mage and black mage, which is conjurer and which is thaumaturge?
A: Conjurer is the white mage and thaumaturge is the black mage.
everything you have to play as it goes on now.

These things really stood out to me, I can't wait till 1.20, 1.21 and 2.0... I have so much hope for this game....

I wonder why people are surprised by the lalafell's jump. I expected even higher. SE always made characters to jump incredibly high for some reason. In Advent children and FF X-2. Japanese simply like to have heroes which can jump on a building.

Wasn't there any more questions being answered or is this just some of the questions?

aside from the Question and Answers, there is still more translation needed to be done which Reinhart did at his thread. Such as the translated of the Concept 2.0 screenshots that was shown in the video and Wada's small speech regarding payment i think?

Thanks, didn't see that earlier.

Freaking some epic stuff!! I wanna ride a floating eye and wear that epic crown!

ugh... I'm disappointed at a lot of these questions.
I like the fact that these questions were asked but I just feel that they lack substance. It's like magitech armor and wyverns have already been asked and answered. I don't understand why SE picked those questions out of all of the others?

On a positive note, I do like the question about things being deleted for players who choose to rejoin the game at 2.0. I thought that was a very good question. I'm also happy that they have shown the different mounts and the jump animation and the like....

Personally, I'd like to know why he basically ignored all of the people who asked for -50% sub. Regardless if my personal opinion on that subject, it felt as if that was a fairly heated debate not too long ago.

Or far less dramatically charged questions... Why not answer if we'll finally be able to see food stats? Or be able to change nations/grand companies?

Nevertheless, I am glad he did explain a few things further... But I guess the last LIVE felt a lot more in depth. D=

I agree, this Live Producer letter was not as enjoyable as last, however, they released a lot of exciting essential information as well as the road to 2.0 last time, so its hard for them top that.

This letter seemed just to be about visually aesthitically pleasing people (Achievement rewards, jump, mounts ect)

I would have liked some information about class changes. I'm aware its coming soon, but i'm still dissapointed.

I mean, some of the questions asked were either obvious or had already been answered on the forums.

Jumping excessively in a game is a good enough reason for me to put you on blist imo. Looks like my blist will fill up fast sometime in the near future /facepalm. (i don't mean oh someone jumped 3 times, I mean...you see this person on multiple occasions just bunny hopping....you know he's a bunny hopper /blist, i'll still have to see him, but I'll never be able to see anything he says...see what I mean here is I think jump spamming is a direct causal link to that persons personality, there an effing spammer lol. I don't play with spam tastic people.)

Other news looks all good, moogle fight i'm pumped for ....hey to the guy who made the Ifrit fight, you shouldn't of made his moves so predictable! But i'm sorry the community made you cry *console*.
