Lots of new info incoming from the NicoNico Chokaigi 2 event

Here's hoping the new NPc they are introducing is part of a ninja clan :)

I added part 2 with another big bunch of info from the Q&As of day 2 of the event.

Wow wow wow this is a lot of information! :D

Thanks for taking the time to compile that Abriael!

I'm just slightly skeptical about this, because she's an extremely successful actress and singer, so she leads a damn busy life. Moreover SE isn't exactly new to having celebrity tell that they play the game when they don't (remember the marketing stunt around the launch of FFXIV?).

This said, she seemed extremely secure when talking technicalities about the game, including tanking that isn't exactly something that a complete MMO noob can handle easily. Again, she's a veteran actress, so she'd probably be able to pull it if she wanted, but while I have a bit of skepticism, in this case I'm inclined to believe it.

And no, she didn't mention server (for obvious reasons lol, I doubt she wants to disclose her in-game identity, that would lead to her being chased out of the game by rabid otakus in a week).

There are some post-processing, but she also instantly changing her voice to Garuda's live to question how good her Darklight will be & whether her relic weapon will be out-phased by better ones at 2.0 during the event. Yoshi-P tried to run away

Links are " Forbidden!" :O lol

Thank you so much! This particularly interested me:

Preorders of the game should be available for late May, around the 20th.
Hopefully that means information on the final collector's edition package!

Composer Naoshi Mizuta said he’d like to participate in scoring A Realm Reborn. Two or three tunes by him may be in at launch. More tracks by various Final Fantasy composers may come after.
Along with some more new Nobuo tracks this sounds fantastic!

The Fat Chocobo will be introduced with a patch after launch.
Brilliant! I wonder what it'll do. Item storage?!
