Eureka Background Info + Updates Hinted At During "Yoshi-P's Walk"

[Claviusnex]

"People in the comments were worried that Yoshi-p would leave the FFXIV team, because he was promoted to "Executive officer" recently (An extremely high Position where only the CEO is above you), but Yoshi-p told the company that he would only receive the offer if he can still work on FFXIV and they accepted that condition. (Note: Yoshi-p climbed up from a new SE employee to his current executive officer position in only 10 years, which usually never happens in a Japanese company. Usually takes 30+ years or even never in a big company like SE) "


I was kind of hoping that the promotion meant YoshiP was moving on and we would get some new blood with new ideas.

Yep. As much as I love Yoshi and everything he's done, I feel he's playing the game too safe. On the plus side, now that he's an executive officer, he might have more weight to have more money thrown at this game. Meaning more investments made, more content coming in, better servers, etc. It's an interesting time for sure.

I am not saying that he should quit or anything but isnt that going to be a bit much for him? Two normal jobs and now even that part too? Just looking at this as a human being I am kinda a bit nervous about his health condition...but yes new people might get new ideas into this.

@Hestzhyen: The thing that stood out most to me was that he himself has not played it but they are already planning changes..did he mean that he never played it with his normal character or truly never played it at all? But yeah if that is content what all the devs seems to truly love we wont see much changes that will go against their love..which makes me a bit nervous about future Eureka parts..

Bubble Bursting time...

Re: The Level-Synch - there has been a correction to the Reddit Post quoted by the OP (see the 'Edit' marked in bold)



While an Elemental Level-Synch is a good change, that isn't what people were hoping for. I have to say, I'm a little disappointed. I'm glad NMs won't be dying in seconds but I'd still like to be able to play with my friends.

I agree with the people expressing surprise that Yoshi P is not actually playing Eureka.
When a piece of content is this controversial I would have thought getting into the game would be a priority; it's the only way to see how it feels from a player perspective and a good way of gauging player reactions.

Nooo that is just sad...that change at least would have made Eureka a bit better for all those that came late..ugh..why oh why..
