Gotta give Yoshi P Love for once!

Edit: Just realized I was totally off topic..

Now to nostalgia with the bashing thread addressed to Yoshida you made some weeks(?) ago.

Also, our anniversary event, the Rising, will kick off today. This year’s Rising has something of an “old-school Final Fantasy” feel to it, so you might find it a little different from the seasonal events we’ve had so far. I hope you all enjoy it (there was some talk about whether or not we should make certain NPCs attackable...)

Requesting for permanent access to the room even after the event plox!

careful ANY suggestions, will be seen by most as complaints

The event was not bad yup, very fast but i prefer that!

the minions are cute

Wouldn't it be great if they kept the access to the room in game, after the event has finished? Would be a cool way of releasing future spoilers.
Why waste all the hard work in creating the room only to take it away after a week or so. Whould be a shame :-(

Hehe, then we could have in-game live letters.

I also love how Yoshida's room is divided from the others with the "boss room" barrier indicator. Do you think the other devs cast buffs on themselves before entering Yoshida's workspace?

[NaliaBrown]

How about you do the event instead of visiting a thread about the event and complaining that people are discussing it?

Maybe because there was nothing in the topic title to indicate that it was about the event or that it was going to contain spoilers? Some of us are at work and unable to play until later today.

So is Yoshi P trolling us or that can happen?

It can certainly happen.

So far (almost?) everything that we have seen in promotional art and/or the Art of Eorzea artbook has become reality. Such as the various minions or certain weapons being shown in artwork before they were implemented (Various minions in the countdown art, Behemoth Heir minion in the artbook, there is a Ninja in the patch Leviathan artwork of patch 2.2, Shiva and Levi weapons in the Circus Tower artwork of 2.1, and so on) except for.... the mystery job on the cover of the artbook . Right in the middle of the artwork is a female Hyur wielding a rapier.

The male Mi'qote on the same cover is also a bit of a mystery, he is the only one that isn't carrying a weapon.

Did anyone else

notice the Imperial Dreadnought airship miniature on the shelf in Yoshi's room (next to miniatures of the Enterprise and Tiny Bronco?). I so want that as furnishing!

This event I must say, was 100% awesome! From the 'debugging' FATE (besides a meta reference to removing bugs from the game, it also came across to me as a obscure reference to the manga and anime Ah! My Goddess!), to the return of the old secret Developer's Room from the old (NES/SNES era) FF games, I just loved this event so much! And how Yoshi and his team were not afraid to once again take responsibility for the mistakes of the past (1.0's utter failure) and thanking the players for making this game what it is. I didn't read too much into the 'hints' though - but I've been wrong before!

Once again, to Yoshi and the rest of the ARR development team, thank you for this amazing event. Definitely the best yet!
