Considering we're close to a big patch...

I think a big part of the silence is E3.

That disappoints me because XI's presence at E3 has generally been little more than a side booth with hired Mithras and the usual six-man event fights. They don't generally seem to try to hype the game or highlight it, and I doubt XIV will change that.

Did SE confirm that they would showcase FFXIV at E3 at all?

Just so you know, I like the dev tracker updates, but they tend to not be as informative. There are definitely exceptions though, like the Materia info we just got.

...it's awfully quiet on the Lodestone. Would be nice to get another update on the Grand Companies website, at least.

Dude, I'm scared. Coming on the heels of a "blueprint", I think the dev team is soiling their shorts trying to meet the promise of a significant update in 2 weeks. They don't want to tip their hand because they're not holding any good cards.

Everyone has their hopes up so high for patch 1.18. Just dont :P

It will be a big patch but not the infamous golden patch. By the end of Summer we should have a great deal of new stuff but not unitl then. So I foresee patches 1.18. 1.19, and patch 1.20 for be quite large...hopefully.

Well at least it should be a bigger patch than usual, considering they skipped the May patch (disregarding 1.17b, which I wouldn't could as a normal patch).

I don't mind if it's not the miracle patch we all want to see, as long as what we do get is of top quality.

I thought we were supposed to get a video showing the battle system/dungeon, looks like that may not happen now.

Yoshida said he might show us videos in the next Producer's letter. Thankfully, he's been pretty consistent with releasing these letters every two weeks, so we will get it next week most likely.
