FFXIV Live Discussion and Re-Cap

[Leonesaurus]

I recorded the whole LIVE feed and took some interesting screenshots in case anyone missed them! The quality of the feed wasn't perfect, so details will be blurry, but still recognizable.

Thanks for posting the pics for those of us who missed them!

Now... can anyone make out the new maps' differences? I can't even tell what zones they are... One of them is Gridania supposedly. They definitely look less linear and copy/pasted than before.

That Moogle sword is pretty awesome haha. If you look close it even looks like it has a mini moogle on it.

They should have said something about translation in twitter stream before it went live imo. either way lots of promising things to come!

They did.

During the live broadcast, the details on questions and answers will be posted on the official Twitter account on the spot. Also the full details of the show will be posted on the official forum after the broadcast.

This was in regards to those who couldn't view it at airtime, but it also tells you that info will be on the Twitter.

Who's that other guy with Yoshi-P?

[Fiosha_Maureiba]

T'was my interpretation that Twitter sub to FFXIV_EN would be vital to the video. But now we know for the future. They turned my question around fast, i should read through to see if others asked it.

To me it seems Blizzard's Priority is it's English speaking players.

To me it seems Bioware's Priority is it's English Speaking players.

To me it seems like Trion's Priority is it's English Speaking players.

To me it seems like Activision's Priority is it's English speaking players.

To me it seems like EA's Priority is it's English speaking players.


Huh, go figure that a company would actually communicate in their native languages mainly.



Whenever Blizzard answers questions about WoW or an update/nerf/buff it's almost always in English then translated to other supported languages, why is Blizzard favoring their English players?

See how silly this whole "favoritism" thing is?

Thats rubbish Blizzard take a lot of feedback and questions from non English speaking European countries.

SE have had years of experience with Q&A at vanfest, E3 and other game conferences to know better than not be more prepared.

Perhaps the reps should have made it more clear how things would have worked so that people didn't end up being surprised to see no actual verbal translation.
