Letter from the Producer Vi

[Xeno]

and that was my point entirely "my friend said so" doesnt exactly make anything official.
anyone can claim anything they want and claim its true, until we see something official, i wont take anything as truth
doing so only leads to many many misleading arguements down the road where people think they were promised something they werent

I think my friend is a pretty good source considering he lived in Japan for a full year, but think what you wish. I think it's pretty obvious just by looking at the video. Why don't you go study Japanese then translate it for us?

you still dont get the point
your friend is in no way shape or form official, he doesnt workj for SE, he doesnt work on the game specificaly, all he did was translate something(or claim to have)

get the point?

griss got it spot on above, we have had NO OFFICIAL word period

i completely welcome the OFFICIAL word on it coming up

No you're the one who doesn't get the point. Million of people can speak both Japanese and English. We don't need an official translation from SE and if you do need that you are basically calling everyone who can speak Japanese and English incompetent and stupid. Now sure, if I was saying something like players will turn into moogles with machine gun turrets mounted on their backs, then yes, you could dismiss that easily; but IN THE VIDEO it shows players crafting together.

I'm pretty sure that video was from before Tanaka stepped down.


Scuttlebutt says the details on public companies have changed since then.

So one of the key features was removed? Somehow I don't see that happening...

show me a offical posting or letter or interview from square staffers stating company's are this and this is what you can do with them. then we can get into the they scrapped this or added this.

the only things we knew was that group crafting was in some way shape or form connected to the totally undefined system and that company's might have been a collective of linkshells. now? no clue. not calling fowl on any one. Xeno i have no doubt that your friend is spot on with what there talking about. now the bigger question is if its still relevant

We have no clue what companies are and I never said we did. All I said was group crafting comes with companies. We'll have to wait and see whenever they post that page they are readying about companies to see any details.
