When I think about how convinced everyone was about getting male viera along with the females, I am inclined to believe that Yoshi's comments are once again being taken out of context. While I can admit that he is vague, I also know he has to be as the alternative is to spoil what is coming in the future days. From what the OP quoted, the impression I got is not to go back through HW looking for easter eggs, but rather use it to refresh your memory to help understand the next series of events.

He also basically said we are not going to Garlemald. Not in those exact words, but when the man says something along the lines of, "I think we can go against the player's expectation in this regard." after being directly asked if we are going there, that not's taking his words out of context; that is understanding that the man has an elaborate and verbose way of saying, "no". Except when asked about ingame parsers.

Anywho, thanks for posting the interview!
