...when you were playing virtual black jack with your significant other at 4 am and you happen to notice Yoshida-san at the other end playing with you?
...and then Soken and others showed up too?
Yeah. Good times. :p
(They were definitely off duty so I didn't want to disturb them too much for photos or anything lol I just said "Hey Yoshi P!" and then "Konbanwa" when they left lol It was nice to see him doing something leisure-y)
If anyone else had some other "...this one time in Las Vegas..." occurrences from the Fan Fest, post them here!
Remember that one time in Vegas...

I wonder, did he get any ideas for Golden Saucer while at Vegas?

I get the feeling this is one of the most stressed out, tired humans on the planet.
You can just look at the photos of him back in 2010, when he first took the role over, compared to now.
Something soul-draining happened between now and then.
I'm imagining it's either some intense personal stuff, or this job really is just -that- demanding.
This guy deserves 2 months of vacation at the world's best ski resort. -

I'm glad you didn't bother him. c: I'm sure the guy could use a break from all the fans to just enjoy Vegas.

Really strong physical acting he has there over the blackjack table.

10-22-2014, 07:04 PMMjollnirMaybe after all the effort and dedication to FFXIV's relaunch, he was looking forward to buying himself a nice big house to kick back and relax in, but then he found out that the only ones available to buy looked exactly like S-E HQ offices.Quote:

Grats on that shoot though. Hope Yoshi can get a bit of relief. ^^ -

These are cute. It's probably a good thing I didn't go to fanfest because the fangirly screaming would be so out of hand, they'd think Elvis had entered the building.

I have so much respect for Yoshi-P after attending Fanfest. I saw him multiple times around the hotel over the course of the weekend. Every time a fan saw him he would stop and talk, take pictures, sign autographs, etc. Even if a big group formed he would stay there until he had a chance to shake hands with everyone.
Thanks for all your hard work Yoshi-P! And the entire Dev Team!! -

This one time, in Vegas, my team one-shotted Odin and was the 3rd group ever to down him. This is half of the group (those of us from Goblin server), the other half of our 8-man was from Gilgamesh I believe, and were really cool too!
This one time, in Vegas, we saw the only bum with an honest cardboard sign....
lol.... -

I hope Yoshida will get some good rest once 3.0 is released, or possible sooner than that.
He's changed a lot of the game for the better, and it's amazing how well he's done it. -
10-23-2014, 04:06 AMEldaenalol I was waiting in line when you guys won =pQuote:
