Letter From the Producer LIVE

[Dyvid]

So I've been meaning to say this for a while no.

Dear Yoshi-P

You don't have to do the Letters from the Producer, live. You can just prerecord them, subtitle or dub them, then drop them when they are ready.

Perhaps he just feels that's more personal.

It's a way for them to present themselves to the community. Even if I don't get to watch them all live, it's one of the things I appreciate about this team.

they do it live for more personality. Also in the past they've done these in front of audiences in various locations around japan.

I'm betting more people tune in for the live broadcasts (when they can). It seems more one-on-one than "Oh, i recorded this months ago, let's plop it into a queue and go".

Considering how patch 5.3 is going to be delayed, I was surprised to hear they were even having a PLL this soon.

Well it may feels more personal it also locked out 2/3 or the players base. For example: Friday, April 24, 2020 at 4:00 a.m. (PDT). First it's going to be in Japanese so non JPN speaking players have to relay on community translators, hats off to them by the way. The broadcast is going to be at 20:00 or 8pm. That is 11am GMT and 4am/3am/2am/1am PST/MDT/CST/EST respectively.

Does being Live actually effect the broadcast? No, unless there is technique glitches which is more negative than positive viewing experience. Other than feeling good, there is no harm in waiting until it a finished product the entire community can enjoy.

Oh, brats are ready....

the devs are japanese. the majority of live letters happen in japan. we only get real time english translation for major things like expac LL's or if they're out of the country. you should know this by now this is how it works. it's not going to change so stop whinging about it.

You are probably at home during this entire Covid 19 lock down.
Isn't it a good time to pick up a new language?

Funny but it sounds like something I've heard back in 2010, but meh if the community doesn't want something better who am I to ask for it....

Actually some of us still have to work through the pandemic.... What new language are you learning while you stay at home?
