Concerned about Yoshi-P

[Munba]

Japanese are just hard working, im sure he has a nice holiday planned after 2.0 goes live.

1 month holiday i hope! He derserves that.

[Zenaku]

I think he would have a lot of time off when 2.0 hits seeing how the game would be good enough for them to not work so much.

I like to think that yes, Yoshi-P and the entire development team are working like absolute maniacs to improve the game we love so dearly. Yes, it might be unhealthy to a majority of Japanese workers, but the SE dev team has a card up its sleeve, and we are that card =)

Think of our encouragement and appreciation as extra doses of enthusiasm to bolster their already impressive work ethic, show them how valuable their hard work is to us =)

Thx Dev team, for working insanely hard to make unprecedented changes to a game we love so much. Im 25 years old and Final Fantasy has LITERALLY been a part of my life, and seeing the effort you are putting in to live up to all of our great expectations is impressive. Keep up the good work =)

Lol, we could be in 2.0 for months before we able to solve all its content, + there's pvp to hold us over as well =). Give the man a month off man...

The Dude is doing an office job, you need to get over it. It is very nice of you to be concerned but he will be just fine. It's crazy how people nowdays cry about been over worked while sitting at a desk all day. Look at the farmers who wake up at 4 AM and work their ass off all day (physical work) and go home only when dark. Now these guys have a right to complain about exhaustion and yet they don't.

Same thing for nurses and doctors, and a million other jobs that are way more stressful and probably pay less.

Exactly. I myself was in an very stressful job and was not going to die from it. Just gotta suck it up and be a man. There's a lot more people that are doing jobs that do deserve your concern.

Hopefully he slept on the plane to LA.

While I'm sure it's stressful, I look at the light at the end of the tunnel. (So to speak.)

If 2.0 turns XIV into the amazing, epic MMO everyone wants to play that's full of subscribers...Do you realize how GOOD that makes Yoshida look at SE?

Undertaking the leadership role of a initially failed project, turning the whole thing around, and turning a profit on it? (This applies for the new Dev team as well.)

It's said that the Japanese are hard workers, and I also say that they know when to recognize a job well done.

With this, his future at SE is going to be brighter than it ever has been. I wouldn't be surprised to see one of the next FF games to be spearheaded by him because of this.

Short version:

Yes, it's alot of stress. But his hard work is going to make him shine at SE.

It's this strong work ethic that gives japan among the lowest crime rates in the world.
