Pretty silly we don't have any real feedback on any of this yet.
All we get is this:
"We're looking into it"
"Please look forward to it"
Reality its more like this:
"We're not gonna do anything about it"
"Please wait 10 years for it to even come out"
So after Yoshi P gets a RMT tell ingame for the first time in like 3 years. Now its time for him to do something about it?
That's if they actually follow through and actually fix it like they said they would.
I don't understand why they even bother to go out to places like gamescom just to show off a 3-6 week old patch update. Nobody cares unless its a new game or its a preview of the upcoming expansion. Just saying it be better spent if they were all working at there office. No point getting new players that have no idea how to play the game telling them to beat Sephirot hm or extreme for T shirts. The people that already know how to do the fight already play the game or aren't fans of the series or MMOs. No point traveling to places around a japan to sell tickets to a live letter. All the questions they get are pre chosen and if its a serious question they just discard it with just saying "We'll look into it", then any actual feedback on why they aren't going to do it. (Because people would quit the game.) No point having live letters and only having them talk in japan only. Just release a 10min video of yoshi P talking with subtitles. (These live letters are planned way ahead anyway to sell tickets, just make a video.)

Is there really a reason to have 3 fanfests? Just show everything in one fanfest. Maybe you guys would finish the expansion sooner and wouldn't need to take a 3 month break or delay the expansion a extra month.
You guys spend way too much time traveling around promoting the game the wrong way. Just make a good game and players will come and stay around. Word of mouth spreads fast.
Yoshi P came to mexico's gaming whatever college and behind him said something like, "Don't forget business side of gaming". Hopefully they aren't just thinking about the bottom line & short term gains.
