Yoshi-P: Flippant dismissal of player criticism is a poor look for a lead developer.

Or is the OP's complaint due to the fact that they don't speak Japanese and someone else with an unknown agenda provided a translation that may or may not have been on-the-spot?

As always, humor/sarcasm/irony/whatever do not translate well and are misinterpreted in the oddest ways by people who read a translation of what was actually said without actual context. It's a Live Letter, meaning that it isn't explicitly scripted for the World Audience to incorporate nuance.

Global Billion Dollar Company refuses to release info to a global audience in their language. Stop white knighting, it's not like they don't have the resources to do this.

800 is finer than 400. That's all it comes down to.

It still won't let me store everything, but I don't actually want every piece of gear in the game for any one character, and those extra slots are going to be a huge pressure-release valve for my current situation.

I'll actually be interested to see how long it takes to build up again.

That's great but it seems you're thinking of what they COULD have done and not what they did. The system is in place and absolutely tied to the inventory and item servers. That needs to be removed for what you want to happen. You've got my intention wrong if you think I'm defending the corner they've backed themselves into. I've long been an advocate of simply reworking the system but I'm also aware that :
1. They will not be allowed the budget and consideration by their uppers to continue doing this AND developing the rest of the game, especially since this makes work exponentially larger as the new things they make while reworking the old system need to work and be created to work with BOTH systems.

2. The players are largely unwilling to weather the content drought that will occur while they "fix" the problem.


So things being what they are I can appreciate and be impressed what they're constantly trying to wring out of the system WITHOUT the rework.

Where, exactly, in my quoted statement does the term "they don't have the resources to do this" appear?

You are a living example of problems in translation.

Hope this will help you in your future human interactions! ♥

Yoshi was seriously over estimating the time it would take for people to complain.

thats the only thing he seems to be wrong about. three months? wasnt even 3 hours....

but given the amount of rework it would require, I AM happy with what I will get, not going to lie.

Damn and people wonder why others don't make jokes because people like OP will take it the wrong way.

Yeah, we are all meant to be blunt, monotonal-speaking individuals going forward. Lest you find yourself being drastically misinterpreted.

I'd like to know why we dont have an official english translation for LLs. I shouldnt have to go into some weird discord to find a transcription when the company is the size it is.

I feel like some of these statements could arise from the cultural difference between west and east. That's not to say Yoshis never been insensitive or out of touch (healers/hrothgar for example) but I'm not so sure this was a bad faith statement. More like a tongue in cheek joke that they know the system isnt very good

We do get them, just later. The Live Letter Digests have their own section here on the forums.

Now, if they could get released like a day or 2 later and not weeks later, that would be great.
