What are your thoughts about the Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXIX?

[RoseOfTheRaven]

I love the Hildy storyline, it makes me feel like I'm playing a classic RPG and takes me away from the grind of tomes and such. SO totally excited for him and that Gigi haha taking after Godbert~

How about that new trial though?

I feel like it's probably a major part to do with Nidhogg/Estinien. They didn't show the name obviously for spoiler reasons, so I'm doubtful we'll be seeing Goddess or Demon--they would have a huge announcement and a patch based off of them (probably). I'm thinking it'll be like the Chrysallis where we have to fight Estinien and the 2nd stage will be him transforming into Nidhogg or something. If so, perhaps the new dungeon will be us fighting a new general of Nidhogg's.

The yokai stuff doesn't quite fit but then again we have a slime king helmet(dragon quest) and a few things along those lines. Perhaps with this they'll add more stuff that is a little 'lore breaking' considering we now have cartoons in a mainly realistic themed world.

Lastly I am stoked for the next installment of Void Ark.

Maybe we will be fighting the Queen that Diabolos took at the end of the first raid. I definitely would like to see more of him.

And I pray to the content gods that they give us decent/cool looking outfits for the raid gear. Some of the tome gear and such we've gotten is just plain ugly. I'd love to see more unique outfits like the original Soldiery n stuff.

Its got hildy content so obviously its going to be a great patch. But in other news, this looks like its going to be the best patch yet.

IDK how I feel about the Yokai stuff... Well, no, I know how I feel, I hate that stuff... Minions are OK, weapons and mount are beyond stupid IMO... The amount of coverage it got also annoyed me...

That said, if this was something like a Bravely Second cross over event? Ah la vache, I'd be loving all that coverage and all the gear and minions... Quite obviously I'm bias, I don't care about Yokai in the slightest and, much like the Lightning event before it, this campaign has the opposite effect on me; I am annoyed by this and thus even less likely to check it out. Like the Lightning event though, I don't think I really have a problem with it... I can filter all that stuff out... I don't have an aneurysm every time I see someone with that Lightning gear, and I wont when I see these things... I'll just roll my eyes and get on with my day... I'd be incline to lament the wasted development time, but 3.3 is shaping up nicely, so pending another Diadem flavoured disappointment I'm not really all that bothered...

But seriously... We get this instead of a Bravely Second event? Can somebody please bust YoshiPs Ba'als...

Good Gravy! I'd LOVE to see a Kaiser Oblivion outfit
And since we play a V2 version of FF14 it's completly themed cause:
BRAVELY SECOND! THE COURAGE TO TRY AGAIN!

But the event planed is meh.
Because... really... I think that Yokai weapons are... bad...
They push a game in an other with no logic.
The only weapons ok-looking are those without the ugly faces of the monsters.
(furthermore, the game is... kinda bad)
I hope Level-5 pay a lot for this to allow dev to do more this with the money.
Also, i read that we might not be able to have all weapons, such a shame. ( yes i know that i say i don't like them but it's my collecteor soul who talk here.)

Except that, the only thing that bother me is only 2 dungeons...
A new one for MSQ and an old one in hard version... again.
I hope they will someday go for 3 or at least, 2 completly new and not "the same at lvl 60 in """""""hard (lol)""""""" version".

I'm really looking forward to the main story, dungeons, 24 man, Moogle quests, and Hildebrand.

Cautiously optimistic about the treasure map dungeon and Palace of the Dead. They both sound fun but sadly SE seems to struggle with implementing new content and keeping it relevant.

Don't really care about the collaboration event since I'm not familiar with that game. I do find it odd they're considering not letting you (or just making it difficult to) collect all the weapons though.

The only thing that really concerned me was the question about Savage. I'm fine with them adding unique equipment models to it but I really hope they never gate story behind raid content like they did with Coil ever again.

[Lexia]

There "lots" of new housing plots being added.

[Yasuhiro]

MSQ: To be expected, why are people going nuts over this?
Side quests: To be expected, again why are people going crazy over this?
Hilidibrad and Relic: Never liked Hilidibrand and don't have enough time to do relic stuff so it's a pass for me
New Dungeons: Sohr Khai looks really nice, the other dungeon should be great too!... Hullbreaker isle (hard) Just kill me now
New Trial: Poltrgeist should be next right?

Aquapolis: It looks like an instanced dungeon where you fight enemies for the contents of a treasure chest, so, it's what you do normally when treasure hunting just in a dungeon? Alright
The Deep Dungeon: This looks pretty great but then so did Diadem cautiously optimistic
More PvP crap: PvP is garbage
Housing: Never cared for housing
Yo-Kai Watch: A great game getting a collaboration with a mediocre FF title? I'm down for this Yo-Kai Watch is extremely underrated here in the west. This event if the whole world ever gets it is what I'm looking forward to the most, didn't watch the whole live letter and was told about it by a friend so don't know the details. Screw the haters in this thread, most likely probably only heard about Yokai-Watch today.

Since we've got a silly ghost mount can we now have Cloud Strife's Fenrir bike?


Overall, looks alright, again better than the hot garbage we got in 3.1, keep it up dev team but seriously....Hullbreaker isle?

It fits the pattern, which means that Patch 3.4 will have Snowcloak (Hard) and 3.5 will have The Keeper of the Lake (Hard) as new dungeons.

Hell, using the same pattern, Patch 4.1 will probably have Saint Mocianne's Arboretum (Hard)

So what you're saying is I can skip the next patches until 4.2 and all will be ok?

Here are my "thoughts" on the Yo-Kai watch-related info:

"Dear lord, look at that thing. Ugh. Feel sorry for whatever job gets represented by that."




"-Oh they have images of the weapons too? Let's scroll down and see what my main DPS job gets..."



...

"...!!"
