Translations (JP to English)

[Reinheart]

This one, some asked what's going to happen at end of January after the 30 days from final server down date. When going by original forum rule, if you don't have subscription going you wouldn't be able to post on the forums so they are just checking if this will happen.

こんにちは（若干の今ごろ感もありながら、あけましておめでとうございます）。
Hello & Happy New Year!

とりあえずベータフォーラムはまだかなー
When's the Beta forums going to be ready?

まだです！
Not yet!

I guess JP side Beta application had a bug where the app form went to the German page. This one just confirms it's fixed now.

こんにちは。
こちら修正完了いたしました。ご報告ありがとうございました。
Hello,
Thi one has been fixed. Thank you for reporting.

Some Q/A for Beta application.

こんにちは。
Hello,

念のための確認ですが、レガシー権利を持っていれば、参加応募サイトから応募する必要はないんですよね？
Just wanted to confirm, if you have Legacy status you don't need to apply from the application site, correct?

はい、レガシーキャンペーンの条件を満たしている方は応募サイトから応募していただく必要はありません。
フェイズ1開始時に自動的にβテストの権利を付与させていただきます。
ただし、βテストをPlayStation 3版でプレイしたい場合は、応募が必要になります。
Yes. If you qualified for the Legacy campaign requirements, you do not need to apply from the application site. You will automatically get Beta test privilege when Phase 1 starts. However, if you would like to play the Beta test on PlayStation 3 version, you will need to apply.

FF13のβ参加権を持っている人はどのタイミングでβに参加できるのでしょうか？
At what timing can those with FF13 Beta Pass participate in Beta?

FFXIIIのキャンペーンコードを持っており、かつPlayStation 3版でのテストを希望される方は、
PlayStation 3版のβテストが始まるフェイズ3以降の参加になります。
For those with FFXIII campaign code and would like to participate in PlayStation 3 version Beta test. You will participate Phase 3 and after where the PlayStation 3 version Beta test starts. (Note: Triairy put 以降 ikou - meaning 'post' after the Phase 3 rather than without, so I translated Phase 3 and after.)

So they were serious when they said they can only say what's on the road map...

Still working on the article translations, this one is long lol.
It's really not about the game but more about YoshiP in general (so far)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...AOcl9RB6U/edit

I didn't proof read or do anything to it yet. Not even half finished, so don't bother looking at it if you want the whole thing. Only putting link for those wanting new info fast (which it's really nothing related to FF14 game, yet). LOL

Only thing I have to say to myself after reading that article is... why the hell am I working for the industry I'm working in right now... where did I mess up (getting negative mood again). LOL
Anyways I'll continue the translation most likely tomorrow during work hours again. Currently at home playing Xenoblade and fully into it thinking to myself, damn if they added this system to FFXIV would be so damn nice... for example the day/night BGM... and specific quests/events happening at certain hours in-game time.

Main reason it works better in Xenoblade because you can change the time to whatever you want, whenever you want. Most of it's features are really user friendly for a single player game.

Thou that hath discovered Xenoblade Chronicles, rejoice, for the Monado doth light the way.

Yep would be hard but FFXI did have some in there with similar system. Forgot the location... area before you enter Tu'lia (that was sky right?) the fountain which fills up only during full moon at night. But yeah it's much easier to work with in offline game where you can change the time freely, unlike MMO with live time

[Orophin]

Xenoblade was a great game. It reminded me of a much better version of FF12.

I also am playing the game and I am currently up to Fallen Arm. The day/night is great but as mentioned above it is tailored to the single player experience by just letting you change the time on the fly.

I enjoy the game but despise the questing... It is so mindless and repetitive.. I am 100 hours into the game and I swear more then half that time has been spent questing..

The story is top notch and I enjoy the combat but god no would i want that questing system in ARR

I agree I am also just playing it lol, and the questing would be a pain in arr. although I think the thing that annoys the crap out of me the most in xenoblade is the ridiculous amount of gear, it is an mmo but a single player game, it's strange I think.

Actually, he was referring to the ultrabook machine it was running on, and since it's a preview machine, they had to censor the brand (that's why there is a moogle stuck on it to hide the details.

The "ultra" (very high) preset for the game settings is in development though since people have been asking for more nice effects for the more powerful machines. I think I heard something about a "wet" effect, not sure if that referred to the water itself being more watery or maybe the characters getting wet?

This may be the wet effect I suggested some time ago. Darkened colors after a rain and bedraggled hair.
