FFXIV Live Discussion and Re-Cap

[Denmo]

They had a twitter feed posting the Q&A's in English as fast as they could get them out. What more could you expect? It's a live event for Japan. These aren't magical gnomes. This is a Japanese game, with a Japanese dev team.

This entire topic, and all you complainers just make me feel bad for being American. It's like you feel entitled to everything and just complain when it doesn't go the way you expected.

Then put them in an official Q and A instead of advertising a feed on the english section of the site that's only in japanese?

[Armok]

Well the problem is that it wasn't said that the live event would be in japanese.

They said they picked a time to do the event that would fit everyone, you would only assume it would
have some english in it.

I'm grateful for the twitter feed, but why promote the live video event to non-japanese people. People wait around for a long time for things like this. If we were told translations would be done via twitter, it would be all good.

They never explicitly stated the interview would be in English.

Lawyer at work, SE definitely needs you.

So basically, it's fine to advertise a live session to an English speaking community without having a way for that community to understand it other than a text summary that they can read whenever they want?

Text summary that was translated in real time.

They did, via the twitter feed, which was advertised the entire interview on the back screen in French, Japanese, German, and English.

It makes me feel bad to be an American when people like you will defend anything they feel like just because "dur I can lul."

They shouldn't have bothered advertising the live event if they had no interest in translating the live event. You can read a twitter feed whenever the hell you want to, you don't have to wake up at 5 AM for it.

Yeah, I think a lot of people forget that English companies does this all the time and later do other regions tend to get the transcript or the 'dubbed version' or not get it at all.
