Even more interesting things to mule over while the servers are down.

Yoshida did one of his "walks" on a jp server recently and answered some questions thrown his way by the players.

Q: Maybe they want to change the volume for their party?
Yoshida: In regards to that, we would like to address that by introducing an orchestra system. If that’s the case, please wait for the release of the orchestra feature.

Q: Are Southeastern Asia servers in the plans?
Yoshida: I really want to realize that for SE Asia and Oceania. Please wait a little longer.

\o/ Make it happen!

The parts I liked were that more beards look to be coming some point after 5.0 and that when asked this time about more face options and character customization it wasn't a no, that it was too hard to do, or the servers would explode but that at the time this happened they were still busy with the new race(s).

Q: When I delete a person from my friends list, I want my character to disappear from theirs, as well!

Yoshida: That would lead to the problem of “Why did he delete me?” and might cause trouble, so we didn’t do that on purpose.

Honestly I'd take the "Why did you delete me" awkwardness over a former friend still retaining access to our every location and the potential for harassment, depending on how the friendship ended.

^ This!
The 'trouble' that might be caused by someone finding you've deleted them from your Friends List is trivial compared to the potential for someone to be stalked and harassed by former friend who they want no further contact with.
Yoshi has given this answer before and I have to say his logic baffles me. He's blowing a little social awkwardness way out of proportion while ignoring the very real problems that can occur when someone with malicious intent has the means to track another player in-game.

Has he ever visited Balmung? :p

Q: Won’t you do a collaboration with FFXV?

Yoshida: I can’t say anything about that. I might be driven to resign.

What's worse is when someone you took off your friends list invites you to their wedding and you have to either track them down or use a third person to let them you're not going to attend. Than the whole "Hey, why did you unfriend me" as the reasoning.

I'm not sure why he's saying S rank spawns are obvious because the only ones that are readily noticeable are the ones in wide open areas like Middle La Noscea.

I think what people were wanting was just a way to legitimately know when something spawns (Because people already use certain...methods of detecting them) because having to scour the entirety of a massive zone like Coerthas Central Highlands every time you fulfill the spawn condition is kind of silly.

Several of his responses caught my eye, some of which include...

Quote:

Q: Are there any plans to expend character creation for the current races?

Yoshida: We are very busy with the new races at the moment. (laugh)

---

Notice the plural there...?

Q: Will you release Estinien’s hairstyle?

Yoshida: Estinien’s hairstyle is getting a lot of attention! Because it is highly requested, it will take some time, but I will do my best to release it someday.

---

Finally... I might get to resemble one of my favourite NPCs one day... at least a bit.

Q: Will the mount speed increase above 3?

Yoshida: We will increase the mount speed a little bit more.

---

Quicker method of getting to those S-ranks hunts... I like this.

Yoshida: I can’t say anything about that. I might be driven to resign.

The Kingsglaive do exist apparently... I've been hearing they are real and are a very formidable group of invisible ninjas who need to give their approval on anything related to FFXV.

Q: Will you sing at the FanFest?!?!?

Yoshida: I’m a director and producer, I DON’T sing!!!

---

Soken and Koji need to convince him to get back on the stage...

Unfortunately, as a different transcript pointed out, Japanese doesn't distinguish between single and plural. If he doesn't say "two races" he could be talking about one or ten.

Q: Give us a hint on the new feature for Fisher!

Yoshida: Fishing, hmmm… let’s see… finishing on boats is nice…

Yoshi please, don't tease me like this.

HE’S CONSIDERING MORE BEARDS!




yes!
