Yoshi p & FFXI

[Chardrizard]

That was a sarcasm.

[Andrien]

In one interview, he stated that his favorite Final Fantasy game is Final Fantasy VII and that he wants to make a MMO as "powerful" as that game was.

[Raubahn]

lol am just troling no Yoshi-p didnt have any connection to any to any FF game he was appointed in 2004 for Games like Dragon quest and stuff like that and later director of XIV

[Delsus]

From what I have read, Yoshi-P hasn't had anything, professionally speaking, to do with any FF game, also I haven't seen anywhere that he played FFXI, but he could just be hiding that.

What is coming in is not "from FFXI" its from Final Fantasy, and other additions, Tanaka did work on FFXI though.

[Duelle]

yoshi-p was the creator of abyssea expansion for XI enough said.

He wasn't the creator of Abyssea. He was in charge when it happened, though. The game turned around under his watch. That's most likely why he was given the task of turning XIV around.

PS: Your signature pic is creepy. :O

i was gonna say, when they announced they were taking tanaka off of XIV they were bringing the current director of XI to take the reins of XIV ( which was yoshi at the time ). ill look more into this later on if no one else does. but im pretty sure yoshi had a part in XI, since thats what SE said ;p

Since that's what you remember SE saying.

No need to look it up, current battle director Matsui was brought over to XIV from directing XI at the time. Yoshida still has nothing to do with XI.

+1 to this!

As a FFXI Vetern myself I loved the Abyssea expansions because they took away most of the "You need a linkshell & points system to get items" it was nice having 2-6 people having a very fast paced battle without the insane respawn timers.
