    Of course you would expect most people to want to keep what they have without rational reason to keep them as they are now. Perhaps it is natural aversion to any kind of change.

    Did any of you consider that there may be storage and programming reasons why it would be necessary to shorten names?

    It may be that when they change the UI, that the screen will have difficulty with names as long as they are now.

    Wrong. Not me.

    No. Not me.

    Maybe.


    Wrong. Not me. - Because I have presented my rational reasons.

    No. Not me. - If it is a programming reason, we will know. We will get a flat out "no" for last name, then (either when time comes, or in advanced). And if it is the case, I assume we wouldn't be asked by Yoshi-san for our feedback and opinions. The only reasons why he wants our feedbacks would be, I think, because our opinions will count.

    Maybe. - But time will tell. They will let us know if that.

    So he wants different opinions from players in order to make a decision on this, or in order to find the best approach. We're willing to help. What I can do is to present my honest and sincere answer based on current experience and expectation for the future. What other undisclosed/unannounced reasons behind it (like the UI or programming issue you speculated) are beyond my grasp and thus I choose to disregard it.
