Im really happy about the speed increase of pretty much everything, especially crafting and gathering. He got up and keeled down to craft so damn fast, same for gathering. So damn slow right now, I fall asleep gathering too much ><.

one thing i want to know will housing be a instance base thing or what?

I really hope someone got the Prelude from the beginning recorded... Waking up to that New Prelude, made me waking up worthwhile. ( but then again When they release their Japanese version of the live event, people will surely, Get that on Youtube asap I would imagine.) :P

Don't worry, the whole thing will be up with subtitles eventually.

Well sorry, I didn't take screenshots. I was too busy trying to watch it and kill Atomos at the same time.

I hope so! The PAX video took them a week to get done, though. Hopefully they'll be faster than that =)

I'm really most interested in housing. I would love them to go into really specific details about how that will all work. The idea of multiple players (I think they said 10) in each "subdivision" just seems nuts.

How will you go from one row to another row of houses? If you are married in game, I figure you can share a house? Or build next to each other?

I am so prepared to sink exorbitant amounts of time on making my house.

Correct. They are still global servers, just that they are physically spread out around the world (not just in Japan).

I read it as being able to pick a server which is physically closer to you or one of a different region, with the only interaction between them being through content finder. "Global" would be the fact that you're not forced to be in a server from your region.

I don't speak Japanese, nor is english my native language... so I just had this impression through Rein's translation and a couple JP-speaking friends who were translating live, too.

He just needs to go way more in-depth about it, and include pictures. I think it is simply a center for dataflow from the center to you, and not where the actual server connecting people are. Like if you were to fight ifrit or something, the data on what ifrit is doing will come from the center to you, thus reducing your lag. or you do crafting or gathering actions, from the center to you.

My hopes at least
