The "Yoshi needs more sleep" petition! Save him before it's too late!

I personally think that process of creating an entire set would take 6 months, if you would sum up all the hours the team has put into it. Let's say an entire set of equipment consists of a weapon, head, body, hands, legs and feet. That would 6 pieces of equipment that would need to be designed, planned, modelled, textured and eventually implemented. In average that would take 1 month per item. But, in reality it will not be just 1 member of the dev that will be design, plan, model, texture AND implement the item in question. They would probably have 1 person designing the item, 1 person planning the process, 1 person perform the modelling of the item, 1 person responsible for creating the textures and 1 person for the implementation.

Based on that, you could say that 5 people are working on 1 specific piece of equipment. Divide the 1 months worth of man hours between these 5 people and each individual would have work about 5 days on it. That would sound more resonable to me...

Keep in mind that this is pure speculation, based on my experience in development. (^_^ )

Also consider that by a "set", they are probably including all textures (canvas, cotton, velvet, wool etc.) as well as the various embellishments. For example, Bronze and Iron sollerets use the same model but have slight differences in embellishments. Such small variations can be seen on all the gear in the game. They might use the same base, but different tiers have small additions.

So a "Set" may include the base plus the hundred-or-so variations.

Considering that, six months doesn't seem unrealistic.

That would just be a pillow, right?

Anyways, I'm a little upset at how every thread like this tends to draw out people that say nothing but, what seems to me to be, mean spirited and unhelpful criticism.

His lack of sleep is none of your concern, nor will your petition do jack squat.

Good thing you care so much, though. What would Yoshida do without masses of sheep?

Yeah it sucks being a human being, eh?

Was this directed at me? lol

I have no response for it regardless, just curious.
