Translations (JP to English)

EDIT: Oh, nevermind this. The english blog has just been updated too: http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog

New post on the Japanese development blog: http://jp.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog

My japanese is not as good as other people around here >< but more or less it's the "Project Manager M"'s presentation post, saying he will be taking care of the blog from now on, posting news about the development, and maybe some little piece of gossip too.

This, together with a couple of photos of ARR's benchmark it seems:

I'm not worried about ultima or omega. Reinhart with his subligar can take them both out to dinner, then never call them again.

[RoxyLalonde]

Sometimes I hope I run into Reinheart in 2.0 just so we can have a subligar off >

Sigh..... Something about a 12hr later bump not being a translation screams disappointment.

Can you say that again in blue?

(before reading the letter)

I could see that Ultima/Omega/Whatever looking thing to be Garlean made actually. A reply from the Empire to Bahamut.

Elder Primal Bahamut gets released, terrorizes everyone, including the Empire. Empire goes back home, spends 5 years coming up with a new plan of attack, come up with monstrous and extremely powerful Weapon to use against Bahamut and for some reason we get involved to take it down first. Probably because it would end up wiping out ALOT of Eorzea if its allowed to actually fight Bahamut.

I could see that.

And I'm wondering, actually, if the Crystal Tower is going to do something like.. put us against memories of past battles.

If certain levels of the Tower wont be accessible until you've cleared certain battle content and so when you do get into the tower again, you fight the boss you've already defeated once before, but much, much more powerful than he was before. That would be something SE would do. Since the CT is an optional dungeon and not a storyline specific thing (assumingly anyways). They wont make Storyline bosses extremely hard that you cant get past them within a reasonable time frame and party set up, so that more people can enjoy it and have progress. But the CT is totally optional, designed to give high end players something to do for achievements and loot. So maybe we'll face off with an Ultima Weapon in a storyline mission and face off instead against an Omega Weapon in the CT.. if they go that route.
