Too bad it doesn't fit the evidence. Unless they have already changed the timeline, "balance" is in 1.19. There's no point "balancing" a system that will be rehauled next patch (they are taking out physical levels in 1.19)

It's sketchy but the facts aren't adding up either their plans changed since last Producer letter, or they're full of dung.

Either way, it's not a "good sign" and all that can be "redeemed" is when we judge it on release.

If everything works well or new information comes to light, it'll be a heck of a lot better on PR font at least.

I'm just waiting for the rantfest aka "patch get's delayed 1 day"

If that happens, a huge shitstorm will unfold in these forums ocne again.

Not that a huge shitstorm would be avoidable after the patch hits anyway about all the stuff people are not happy about.

Bit disappointed in this news but I hope that Yoshi keeps his promise that this time will not be wasted. I still think they will have 1.19 and 1.20 in August and September and if they keep them a month apart would that make 1.20 coincide with the 1 year anniversary.

I remember Yoshi saying in one of the interviews a while back when asked how he saw the game on it's year anniversary and he said it would be the time that current players would join with returning players and new players to defend Eorzea from a huge threat to the world.

I hope that what he said is still going to happen, I think it is the core mechanics that they are just trying to get nailed in this patch along with some content to test it. 1.19 will be further adjustments to those mechanics and some new elemtents like Airships and Chocobo's. The 1.20 I am hoping is just content, content, content.

Lol.. Its strange because this patch.. is the same day.. The put the "easy mode" on FFXIII same exact day hehe =)

Are they really? It's not like the game was hard to begin with.

Wut? Game is easy mode already, except getting gil for all the weapons. Thats time consuming.

I guess they want people to complete the game to be ready for FXIII-2, but still, a bit odd to give us that over a year after it was released. Would be better to give us some new content instead.

Bleh... I wish they would just release Versus already.
