Why, gahoo. What manner of fell magicks did you employ to discover that text seeing as it's not displayed anywhere in the game? ;)

(For those of you who have been around since Beta, you'll recall weapons and armor once had help text, but it was all removed before release. There may still be some vestiges of that long, lost era floating around in the data files, but I cannot vouch for their accuracy.)

Got it from a dat site (which we are not - for this reason actually). But that is interesting/good news - I take it that means no need to show any item descriptions (was wondering why some weapons/armor had descriptions and some not). I hadn't noticed in game what had/didn't have. Consider them all gone in one fell swoop.

So THAT'S why only some items still have helptext. It's still on a handful of items, but I'm sure it'll be widdled down eventually. What I want to know is where we get

the KEY THAT UNLOCKS YOUR SOUL and the locket that has a picture of my not-dad that looks suspiciously like me...

I forgot about the help-text from during what little of beta my old computer would run... oh... oh, no. I think I'm going to have a flashback of the Closed-beta Forums. No! OH NOOOO!

Is anyone even reading these?! There's like 12 threads and they all have thousands of responses! Anyway, I more than meet the hardware requirements to play the game but it still looks like a bank robbery video. Sadly, I think that's going to be the extent of my input until some more optimization takes place. At least this won't be the release version; it's got a lot of problems! Can't wait to see what updates the first patch brings!

GGGYYYAAAAAH. <pant...pant...pant...> Phew... that was a close one. I almost spent the rest of my life wandering around Ul'dah incoherently muttering, "Answer the shellphone... somebody answer the shellph-... Do you have any spare gil, mist- twelve bless you. Answer the shellphone..."

To quote a famous Australian, "no worries, mate."
We appreciate all the effort you guys put into your sites and nobody (from the LOC team, at least) will be on your case about the origins of a few deleted sentences letting you know that your iron sword is truly made out of iron. :)
