Yoshi Interview at PGS

[Theodric]

Be specific what you want - References, images, sketches, or a decent description always helps in determining of what you imagine to be a good addition.

Right.

Yet plenty of people have been specific. Sure, there's a lot of silly and tiresome threads about character customisation but a lot of people have consistently provided in-depth feedback on specific aspects that they wish to see improved - such as more facial hair options for male characters as well as new scars and tattoos across the board.

【キャラオプションの追加について】Regarding Character Options.
・選べるパーツを増やすというのは課題なのでフィードバックが欲しい Instead of face options they are looking into adding more character parts. They require feedback on this.

I would like clarification on what "adding more character parts" means.
Does that mean like adding more parts for already existing features like eyes, mouths, ears, tails, etc.?
Or does that mean adding new parts/categories to like scars, beards, etc.? Maybe even body types/builds?
Or is it just adding more face paint and hairstyle options? :B

[Arrius]

Right.

Sure, there's a lot of silly and tiresome threads about character customisation but a lot of people have consistently provided in-depth feedback on specific aspects that they wish to see improved - such as more facial hair options for male characters as well as new scars and tattoos across the board.

And I do believe they do listen to feedback, but they might have neither the time nor the resources to take every suggestion into consideration.
That doesn't mean you should stop, though - Glamours were always a heated topic every since it came out, and they finally got their heads out to address it properly.

-Everyone can get a house.

I dont believe that until i see it.

[Mimilu]

Pros of that tidbit:
-Everyone can get a house.
That really interests me because even if he adds more wards, there is no stopping alts from getting an extra house. So I truly hope when he says everyone, he means one per acct or at the very least, one per World.

He never said everyone would be able to point-blank get a house, he said they were going to add a system where everyone can have a chance at obtaining a house fair-and-square.

パッチ4.2に向かって土地を増やして皆さんに公平に渡るように全力で開発を行っている なので今のところ大型のアパルトメントの開発予定はないがタスクが終わった後で前向きに検討したい

We're currently working in adding more wards and a system where everyone can obtain a new house fair and square for Patch 4.2.
Therefore for now we don't have plans to develop a large scale apartments right now but once we get the current task done, we'd like to move forward and see what we can do with it.

[Skivvy]

He never said everyone would be able to point-blank get a house, he said they were going to add a system where everyone can have a chance at obtaining a house fair-and-square.

I'm struggling to find many ways that they will make this fair. My thoughts are 1) new wards will be created as they fill up, letting everyone get a house if they want, and 2) some sort of lottery system where they can register ahead of time.

It's not going to be fair if people still need to contend with server queues or possibly another 3 a.m. PST launch.

[Fourbestintoner]

Did they even upgrade the servers?

[Naunet]

and they finally got their heads out to address it properly.

That remains to be seen.

sounds like for example, adding a glasses/mask slot that doesnt override your entire hat/helmet. im curious now. O:

[SenorPatty]

He never said everyone would be able to point-blank get a house, he said they were going to add a system where everyone can have a chance at obtaining a house fair-and-square.

But that's how I'm reading it. My statement didn't mean getting a house for free. From what I understand, if I have the gil, I can get one.

Or is this "fair and square" thing still involves luck?
