[New Blog Post!]BEST DAY OF THE WEEK

Hello everyone!

Fernehalwes taking a break from putting the final touches on the Beta Version localization to bring you a sneak peek at an atypical Saturday here at Square-Enix headquarters.

Yesterday, Yoshi-P asked several members from the development team to come in on the weekend to help create a video that would be shown on his coming worldwide trip. Here’s a shot of our multi-talented producer in the control seat displaying his 1337 skillz (he made me write that…okay, maybe he didn't make me write that). I know it’s kind of hard to tell what is being filmed, but if you take a closer gander at the left-hand side of the pic, you’ll find something that may be of interest…

And, to thank us for coming in on our day off, Yoshi-P dusted the cobwebs off the old wallet, and sprung for...wait for it...pizza! Which, knowing how much Japanese pizza costs, probably ran him about a half-month’s salary (okay, okay, that was another slight exaggeration…it was probably closer to three-weeks’ salary).

Potato, corn, tuna, and mayonnaise. Mmm… My favorite! And by “favorite,” I mean “pass the pepperoni.”

Oh, and here’s a shot of the lovable Komoto-san finishing off his sixth pie. All that devving can really work up an appetite!

Talk to you all again soon...from the other side of the world!

and yes, japanese pizza are very very expensive.

Mmm, pizza.

Now, I want pizza.

Woo! Lookit Yoshi sportin' that old school fat PS3.

Nice ps3 running ffxiv. There proof it exists for those that have been waiting oh so long.

Like what I'm seeing.

Perhaps not actually playing the game on PS3 though. A posed shot using a screenshot minus the U.I or have they just hidden the controller U.I using some kind of screen mask. Disguising the more developed version until a later letter or other update perhaps.

What is that pyrefly looking thing at the bottom left (I dont think its that, but thats what it looks like lol)

Awesome! My bones are shaking from excitement because of how close we are getting. Not sure If i'll even get into stage one of beta bet hey i can dream! I was one month late from legacy status :?(
