New Letter from the Producer, XII

I think I need to do a word-for-word translation of this article from publicity-talk to english so people stop talking it up like it's the second-coming.

You will walk onto the platform and it will say: "take airship to Gridania?"

After clicking yes, you will be teleported to Gridania.

Why that takes them until Patch 1.19 to implement, I shall never know. Too busy delaying patch 1.18 I figure.

It is what will happen.

Yoshi said so, but everyone chooses to imagine something better, setting themselves up for disappointment.

Now you can grind if you wanna grind
Quest if you wanna quest
Leve if you wanna leve
Raid if you wanna raid
Solo if you wanna solo
Party if you wanna party

... I think I just wrote a new song! The ballad of change!

I'm with you, Richard, we have options now, and options are good!

Sing it, SING IT!!!!! Because some people don't seem to be reading the same thing we are or they will never be happy until soloing is not allowed and everyone is forced to party together or die a most gruesome death every time they step foot outside every major city.

Adding content for all kinds of people and playstyles is a GOOD thing. For once I can say that Yoshi is right on with this.

Someone sounds a little bitter.
Was the translations by several people not good enough for you?
How about the Letter?
And in response to your next post, you act like thats the most absurd system ever. I think you fail to see these are the base systems being implemented, as concern has been expressed that they will be built upon later. Sheesh. I'm not defending the fact that things are coming in slowly, but think about it. They have suffered some pretty big setbacks. It also looks like 1.18 and 1.19 are going to be pretty massive changes. In other words...Try to look at the big picture before you get frustrated at the fact that things take time, especially when they might as well be working from the ground up.

New producer, new development team trying to work on an engine that apparently is hard to work with and I would then assume to get used to, expressed opinions that people want the game to be totally different, Japan getting wrecked a few months ago, and then rebuilding the foundations of this game.

Yeah, I shall never know whats taking them so long either.

Your advice seems to suggest that this game will never be good even in ten years time and we might as well give up on it.

Your statement seems to suggest that you didn't read what I said.
My advice was that I can understand that they are running a few weeks behind, why can't you?
