Letter from the Producer, XVII (09/01/2011)

Discuss <3

Severely disappointing that airships will be just a cut scene @@! Its nice to relax on the ship for even a mere 2 minutes admiring the scenery below.

(I hope they adjust this in the future, I'm hoping they have only added the cut scenes purely on the basis that they are rushed atm.)

*Seems this is being added in the future at some point.*

horsebird...

Airship a go go...
Other than that, the job system seems to be peeking in the to-do list :)

Ok so i noticed Yoshi saying that "the flight will only take mere seconds" .. does this mean we don't get to see eorza from above? i always liked in ffxi you got a lil trip above the clouds. Ferry's have a boat ride and i don't see why airship's shouldn't have a airship ride! :p

Let's try not to overreact this time to the obvious jokes ("horsebird") put into place like many did over "My Little Chocobo"

Just had a quick look, hopefully my boss didn't see my screen. Most of the stuff in the letter we won't see for 4 - 5 months.

I clicked Like button.

Actually they confirmed this so many times before. The current airship ride (for now only) will be only board and un-board in the other city, no mid flight or anything.

Very disappointing about the airship ride, wish they wouldn't half-ass stuff. Oh well least its something.

Very happy/glad for chocobo.

I'm glad the airship ride is going to take a min or two. Of course I wouldn't mind if they added battles on the airships in the future.
