    I lurk these forums all the time, but because of that one-time password, it's usually an inconvenience for me actually to log in and say anything. But this morning, I felt I needed to. For my health. Because I'm really really really irritated with SE.

    When I woke up this morning and zombie-walked to the coffee maker, it occurred to me that I was excited for this interview the same way I used to get excited for Christmas. Square-Enix, in all their wisdom (I thought without the least hint of sarcasm), had created a major event for the FFXIV fans to enjoy out-of-game. They were working hard to create a buzz, and that has to start with the core players before it can brim over to the general public. Wow! What a plan!

    So there we all are, sitting in our pajamas drinking our coffees, many of us having had only a few hours of sleep, *wanting* to be a part of this, excited to help recreate a buzz for this game; we, the most derided, the most loyal video-game fans in the world, are sitting in our pajamas watching a couple of middle-aged buffoons try to work a camcorder in what appears to be a break room while tripping over one another with social niceties. "Hai!" "Hai!" "Hai!" Hai!" No, I said hai first! No, *I* said hai first! NO I DID! Well, thanks for being so polite, fellas. You woke an entire nation of gamers to gibber at us incoherently without a translator. Another brilliant marketing stunt from SE. And I don't doubt it'll create a buzz--but it will stop with us fans, die on these forums by next week, and never brim out to the public. It will become one more joke at stupid, backwards, pin-headed Square-Enix's expense.

    As I type this summa of rage I hear their inane chatter in the background, and that spurs me on. At this point, I am beyond political correctness. Hai, I do not care if you dub me troll. I guess I am trolling you. But, gosh dammit, don't you see--in trolling you, I troll myself; for FFXIV makes two fans as one fan-flesh. I want this stupid, bugged, noisy, flim-flam game to succeed just as much as you do! But what do I get out of this relationship except a pain in my as$? Why the heck did they wake us up? I don't use twitter! I don't want to read the translations! I didn't wake up for a live interview just to read the transcript after the fact. This should have been a professional interview with a live translator, just as there would be at some political meeting. It's just Laurel and Hardy bowing at each other in a broom closet!

    /rant

    Excuse me while I go hemorrhage. And moving onto something completely different, Mr. Yoshida certainly has a deep voice.

    B!tch, moan, complain, defend, troll, flame--but whatever you do, this unchecked aggression from SE must not stand! Let's make some more noise! Let's tell them, with one joined voice, that we WILL NOT BE AWAKENED UNDULY!

    #XIVLive Q: PvP has often been touched on, but exactly what kind of elements are you thinking to add?

    A: First off, we are designing it so that players that do not wish to take part in PvP are not forced to. We are planning 2 things for PvP. The first are battles in the Coliseum. The second is an PvP area where you can fight for control of various influences.

    Are you kidding me I heard Ashton Kutchner is on that website!!! Clearly it is the place to be for real news.
    Ah, words of wisdom. Too bad you are making judgment calls based on your own personal ignorance. A lot of artists, musicians and authors and businesses actually use Twitter to update people on what is going on, or to provide insights into upcoming products. Most of the people I follow don't use it for personal blogging, and is only used as a business outreach. Go figure, people using it for what it was intended. Weird.

    It is completely unacceptable for not a single English community representative to have warned us before hand that there was no translation being offered with the video they advertised and that we would have to follow it using twitter

    NOT:
    How to submit questions
    Please follow the official FFXIV Twitter account (@FF_XIV_EN) and send a tweet with #XIVLive hash tag during the live broadcast.

    Because that is not what that says.

    Go to bed. Read the translated version later.

    How about you mind your own business, my complaint is legitimate we could have been told that we had to use twitter if we wanted it translated. Not just to ask questions, or if we missed the live feed as was implied.

    Reflect on what your going through with your life and what has made you like this.
