Yes, quite a lot, but dont know what they said...there was no live translator or anything.
He logged into the game, and did a PF for Gilgamesh, and PT got full in 1sec. was quite funny :) Both Yoshi and that other guy was like holy shit, that was fast, and laughing.
just recognized a few words, here and there, from watching animes, but dont think there was any new announcements or such. He mentioned frontlines, a bit, and some other stuff that's upcoming, that we already know about.

Rumors about the Musketeer class were swirling around before Rougue was announced. We asked why it's not Musketeer. Yoshida explained that they wanted a class with stealth ability, and most importantly, it's because of the implement of new PvP content and the developer wanted to make sure that something new will be brought in. So Rogue will have its own way of participating in PvP and he will have unique tactics as well. So now, as Yoshida said, they want to start with Rogue instead of a class with guns which will be similar to mage class that uses magic, but he mentioned they did have the plan to introduce in new class with guns or sort of stuff. And speaking of how stealth will work in PvP, Yoshida said it's a secret at the moment.

COME ON?! Seriously?! :mad:

All I hear on my server from friends is no one is doing PVP and its always empty. So why is PVP based classes/job more important that a class/job that's been promised for YEARS?!?!

Hm, Ramuh's theme sounds interesting. Wonder how it changes over time, since that seems to be a thing ever since Titan.

Horse, new mount or just new barding? pvp thing maybe? :O

At the moment, its enough to convince me to actually get started on PvP so I can gear up for this. I'm actually looking forward to this now.

haha was that a ninja enemy in CT? xD
Syrcus Tower? hm

Also... omg I want to move that white cursor off the screen!! XD haha /ocdrage

The Syrcus Tower is beyond beautiful.

You might be waiting until October.

2.3 is out July 8th! So we just have to wait a few more weeks, yay! Full patch notes look to be released the day before it goes live.

oooh catalog of everything.. :O
oh HAHAHHA it's a sample and blank inside. XDDD haha, I really wish I understood Japanese. :) Do you think they'll sell it here? :O

I wish the developers had better sense than this. We live in a culture that's overly obsessed with sexuality, and they choose to send a message that homosexuality is okay? This is by far the most idiotic thing they've done. Naming this union "eternal bonding" is just a terrible attempt to dodge the issue. I have no problems with gestures of friendship or interracial relations (remember, FINAL FANTASY XI basically confirmed the five playable races all had a common ancestor, so I expect the same thing here), but you dropped the ball here.

No, they are sending a message that says "We don't know what the player behind the character is or isn't, so we will open it to everyone".

I take it you have a problem with homosexuality? But it doesn't affect you in any way. Stop crying.

As far as I know there are also no Christians in Eorzea and Square Enix is the creator of that world, not the Christian god. Those links are so incredibly off topic it's not even funny.

It's God not god by the way. Anyway a lot crying incoming no gunner

It doesn't really matter if it affects me personally or not. Everything anyone does, says, or thinks sends a message.

I can understand playing the other gender for role-playing purposes, but that doesn't excuse sexual immorality in a culture that's already obsessed with sexuality. Square Enix had a chance to defend what's right here, and they blew it.

They said you could raise your companion chocobo beyond rank 10. If it gains SP at the same rate, you can have it master another skill tree by rank 14. Will we get the matching barding this way, and will we ever get to reset our chocobos' skills? They didn't answer those questions, either, but that's minor compared to this "eternal bonding" business.

For someone so concerned about the sexual obsession of society, you certainly do seem committed to bringing it up over and over again in a thread that has nothing to do with it. Seriously guys, not the place, take it to another thread.

Thank you very much for the loose translations, and I'm pretty satisfied with what I saw here. Hopefully we'll get more information as the date nears.

If you want to get super anal about it, its G_d, not God. Something about print being the same as graven images... or something like that, whatever.

On topic: other than the PvP and horses, that was an underwhelming live letter, and covered much of what was in the first.

Please keep your sexual views out of this thread. The last thing we want is to have this one locked. T_T

Stop responding to people trying to turn this into a conversation. The um-teen-million topics of this that are locked are proof this discussion can't be handled civilly on these forums. Just report the post and move on with your lives.

Q: When will we be able to reallocate our companion skills?

---

A: This will be possible in patch 2.3. We also have some other chocobo-related activities planned for patch 2.3. I’ll explain the details at a later time, but I can tell you now that players will be able to reallocate their companion's skill points, and there will be a way to exceed the current cap.

Never heard of G_d gonna do some research.


On.topic yes it was very underwhelming. Was expecting more info about everything that's in the game now like Atma drop rate or more vanity item's.

Kind of disappointed that there weren't any real big reveals. We already knew frontlines was coming, we already new the second part to Crytal Tower was coming. They just teased a bit of those. Nothing special.

/sigh

Only 1 new job, and a dps one. Do they realize what kind of a mess this will create when everybody starts leveling it up at the same time? Ugh.. I don't want to even think about the que times.

Actually, it is on topic. "Eternal bonding" was revealed at E3. This is the E3 thread. If Square Enix honestly expected us to not discuss this, they should not have discussed it.

Either way, I've said my piece.

It saddens me that last few pages is what the E3 Live Letter discussion is about.

They also talked about raising a chocobo. Does that mean I can go off on some rant about how its immoral for humanoid to adopt chickens because I was raised to be crazy?

The Eternal Bonding in game isn't a victory or lose for anyone. It's just a thing that happened. It's a feature in a game like having a chocobo fight next to you. And you don't see PETA in here complaining about that, do you?

If you insist on making this out to be a huge thing that will destroy the morality of the world, then I suggest you take a step back from the computer and take some deep breaths. Because what I'm about to say will likely blow your mind.

The world changes. That's right, everyday something in the world changes. You have a choice. You can either embrace these changes with an open mind or hide in a cave because change will come whether you like it or not.

That's why... people said it was only about 2.3.

Lol @ people further disappointed. That's what optimism gives you.

It was nice seeing how crystal tower looked. Shame it's just ganna be mindlessly runned through, but alas, the goal of enverionment design is ultimately to make people feel like it's a normal environment.

I'm not sure if i'm getting bored with the game or just the live letters, but lately I just don't get excited watching them. Leading up until launch and even for a white after, it seemed Yoshi and co were genuinely excited about what they were doing and that's what got me excited for the game in the first place. It just seems like they are going through the motions now :/

Hopefully things kick into gear when we start talking about the expansion.

Still.. this is freaking E3, where you pull out your big guns and go "Look at what I've got!!! Haha!" Not only has SE kind of been a letdown this year, but the whole convention wasn't really that great. There were a few really interesting reveals as a whole, and a few games that look really good. Still though, seems this year was a bit lacking nearly everywhere, imo.
