Here are all my screencaps from the Letter From the Producer Live

Go right ahead :D

By the way, I have another small update that I missed earlier.

If you're wondering about the identity of the voice actress in this picture, i did some research.

She's the extremely popular Rie Tanaka that originally lent her vocal cords to one of the Female Miqo'te voices in 1.0. You've probably heard her before in a multitude of anime series like Gundam Seed, Air Gear, Hayate no Gotoku and many others (and most of them are protagonist roles). Looking at this picture showing a rather thick script for A Realm Reborn...

we can see her autograph on the top right, with the character name hidden by tape, so we can pretty much guess that she'll play a major role in the new game.

Considering that she's one of the most popular voices in Japanese animation, SE isn't really skimping on the voice acting budget. Wish I could identify the other autographs...

that is part of having a great world having things that would be in the world, now you have useless airships and now a train that wont do anything thats a waste of time. you could just teleport yourself to a crystal like 1.0 not like their removing it.

showing us how the not trying to make that "next gen mmo" they keep talking about. there on try #2 and failing again lol. they should of just made star gates.

Having those elements there is a good flavor point, and they don't take too many development resources. On the other hand making a whole world that can be visualized from above does.

It's that simple.

As a Minnesotan, they are wearing the garb of my people.

They forgot Kamishiro Yayoi (Hakaima Sadamitsu), Mizuhara Koyomi (Azumanga Daioh) and Kuki Ageha (Maji de watashi ni koi shinasai!), but yeah. =P

Considering they got Otsuka Akio (Solid Snake) to play Gaius, my guess is she'll play Y'shtola.

This was posted by Bayohne over twitter, if anyone's wondering :D

I think them showing off West Thanalan and East La Noscea was a treat! And of course the castrums they showed off LOL. The empire base off the cliff near the ferry docks as well was something i've been obsessing over lately.
