3.2 Patch Notes

[Tisharu]

"I Hope Mentor Will Notice Me I" ...really???? I hate our localization team...why not leave it as "I Hope Senpai Will Notice Me I" (that ofc includes all achievements with this name). They make stupid references to stuff all the time but when they have an actual reference to something nearly mainstream by now...they change it....also...I hote for "Duty Roulette: Senpai"

Thank you

Please no. I'm glad they went with Mentor. I cringe every time I see the word Senpai.

Please no. I'm glad they went with Mentor. I cringe every time I see the word Senpai.

It just mean something like upper classmate or senior.

Yeah... in Japan

The patch notes look great, with some really unexpected changes, and I'm really looking forward to 3.2 - even more so than after the trailer.

While this is sorta off-topic, I actually think senpai (and its counterpart, kouhai), would be useful loanwords for a few European languages, English included. While there is the junior/senior pair in English, it doesn't quite capture the same meaning and nuance as kouhai/senpai do, because junior/senior are (to my understanding, I'm not a native speaker) sort of contextually tied to age, whereas kouhai/senpai can be used in any situation (be it work, sports, education, or whatever) where there's a difference in experience, regardless of age. German, as another example, has absolutely no equivalent to either junior/senior or kouhai/senpai, and would really benefit from the pair as loanwords. You may call me a weeaboo now.

It does relate directly to age, but also to experience. It could easily be used in the same context as senpai/kouhai, but english simply doesn't creat that kind of relationship with those words. The translation is accurate, but the culture is different. For example in activities a younger person could be your senior, or rank. They would just be addressed as sir or some such though.

I dunno, I'm pretty happy with the patch notes though. There isn't anything that i facepalmed. So, that's a win.

Well, the big question has been answered, kinda. Based upon the notes, the Hildabrand sidequest is separate from the previous sidequest. I only hope that is really true.

To more important matters:
1. I am excited that it seems that the storyline for 3.2 appears to be long. Looking forward to it.

2. I am excited that the Trial and Dungeons are ilvl 180. Means I am ready now for them.

3. I am kinda pev'd that Midas normal is Ilvl 200. I was expecting ilvl 190 since that is the Gordias Savage is ilvl 190. I have alot to get done this weekend and hopefully get enough so I can get in as soon as possible to clear. So far good story, and good gear.

4. The Feast looks interesting. Not a PvP player but might try it out.

5. Since I have been working Gathering, not really thrilled with the increase in required scripts. The boost to 9 of 5 is nice, but not at almost double the original price. I would have expected an new tier to provide 9.

So, everything is looking interesting. Wish the load up was tonight!

Red gatherer / crafter tokens still cost 50 scrips each, it's just now you can buy all 9 at once, rather than the old way of 5+1+1+1+1 that we do now.
