Yoshida interview

If the lore makes sense, then I'm very happy.

If the lore doesn't make sense, then I'm very unhappy.

For me I don't care about lore or anything at all but fighting old FF bosses that would be fun.

I wish you would think about it better before jumping to conclusions. Think about the FFIII crystal tower that will be implemented, huge fan service, think about all the FF-feel he's bringing to the title, the summons, jobs, relic gear and weapons, chocobo breeding, etc, all fan service. No more, no less.

And i remember that he said that they were not sure if implement regional servers, they never said 100% No. And btw a lot of time is passed since those old infos... It's time for confirmation no? Even about the new combat system.. We know nothing. But interviews prefers to ask if there will be x360 version.. let's solve first the tecnical issues before no?

...What new combat system? Outside of new classes, animations, whatever they're doing with BR, and chocobos popping in, what you see now is what you get.

-No more istance / boss spamm, but longer raid lock with more assured drops at least in hard mode (meritocracy anyone? )

No one asked questions with obvious answers that has been answered before >.> and no matter how many times he has to say it regional servers won't fix anything if the servers themselves are bad (which they are.) You'd just have terrible servers setup in various regions that does nothing.

Even if it is only elements or themes, I can't think of much in FFXIII that I'd want to see in this game.

to me (and probably only me) I found XIII to be the biggest waste of 30 hours possible. it took that long just about until you were on gran pulse and the game actually opened up
/end rant

I want actual airship rides and maybe even little events where the airship is attacked either by the empire (or bandits) or monsters instead of just one cutscene *black screen* another cutscene

FFXIV will have Lightening (FFXIII character), in a store near you!

Anything can make sense with the falling of Dalamud, it's a Deus ex Machina lol. Pulse=Dalamud being held up by the life energy of the planet Hydaelyn. Ivalice could be a newly discovered continent revealed from the influence of Dalamud on the planet. The possibilities are pretty much limitless it comes down to what the community wants to see and everything they can do to make this feel like an FF game rather then a game with the FF title on it.

Usually fan service refers to T&A. I am disappointed!
