There's probably not a lot that they can say. Reading between the lines, I get the impression that they want to speak more openly about what they know but they can't. A consequence, perhaps, of the developers being very tight about the flow of information. It's a bit annoying that I have to check Reddit to get up to date FF14 news. So many interviews just aren't published here at all.

I'm generally in favour of the official site being the favoured source of information for FF14 related discussion, though. I don't touch social media at all and shouldn't be expected to - especially given the sort of dubious scandals the likes of Facebook have been involved in lately.
