As they did tell us to follow on twitter, I would have thought that enough of a clue. But then since Twitter seems complicated to you, maybe not.

As they did tell us to follow on twitter, I would have thought that enough of a clue. But then since Twitter seems complicated to you, maybe not.

It was not the fact that Twitter was too complicated, it is because it is too cumbersome and limited in scope.

1. It failed to filter out any question that did not have a response.

2. When you did find a response you had to open a seperate window to see the full response.

3. All messages in all languages were shown. I am sure that my friends from around the world had valuable questions and comments. But because I have enough trouble with American let alone another language I was unable to share in them.

4. not everything Yoshi-P was saying was presented on Twitter. I missed most of the visual aspects such as the maps and the like because I was constantly scrolling through Twitter looking for nuggets of information.

I understand and respect the fact that Square is a Japanese company employing Japanese speaking people. What Square must realize is that their game extends far beyond the Home Islands and not everyone thinks and reacts to information the same. If they are going to continue to use YouTube to reach out to the whole community they must, at the very least, try to understand how we think and react to information presented. For most Westerners the proof is in the details, details, details.
