Letter From the Producer Live Part LXXIX - 24 September 2023 - Summary and Discussion

[ronibosch]

I guess there was a Yakasoba stall at the last fireworks show that only sold the noodles at steep prices that people complained about on Twitter. I.E people expected some kind of veggies and meat choices to go with the noodles.

Were they at least homemade?

[LittleImp]

so what did the director say about the yakisoba incident

He said SE has met with the event company about it, and that the event company is doing an internal review. I bet at the next event they'll make a big deal out of having some of the best yakisoba they can find haha.

Were they at least homemade?

They were being prepared by a woman with long hair and no hairnet.

Thank you for making a summary of everything!
I'm especially eager to see the new Island Sanctuary content.

The new raid armour is a bit meh.

They are technically censoring him as you don't get to see much of his face in the trailer. We tend to only see his back or part of his face is being blocked. This is the 1st time I've noticed he looks like most Greek depictions of Hermes. Course we only see 3 out of 4 fights so the 4th is a mystery.

They're probably doing that because they've dropped a lot of hints that it's Deryk. Not that he couldn't change his face to come along with us, but I'd do the same if I knew there was fan speculation about that going around.

Toward the Thaliak commentary, I actually think he looks hella sexy in that. But I tend to like Thavnair clothing. I do like that he has a hint of that in the skirt and the pants. Almost like even though they worship the Magus Sisters, he's looking at groups like the mad scientist alchemists and going "Those are my people".

If you're not enjoying Zero just you wait..

I can only hope she stays in the void after 6.5 and we never have to see her again.

Feo Ul is gonna beat me to a pulp when they find out some other pixie's been giving me rides

Oh gods, no.

[Aldath]

I mean, if we want to get into ffxiv’s problematic depictions of women (yes I am going full woke), do we really need to look any further than Eden Savage Ryne-Shiva? Teenage girl gets naked to fight, covers up with a skinny-ass dragon wrapped around her.

But yeah, don’t let that guy fight shirtless!

Edit: stupid sexy Thaliak

Well, two things. Ryne and Gaia aren't exactly considered teens in Japan, and I remind you, they were designed by Japanese artists taking their own customs into consideration. Then again, I see lots of hypocrisy about that because people are quick to get thirsty over Alisaie but somehow Ryne and Gaia are out of bounds.

Second, there are shirtless dudes in the game. I still find it very stupid that this boss NEEDS to have his protective armor shirt or whatever while Nophica has half her boobs out, but it's not like there's not male fanservice in the game.

And you'll be expected to enjoy it.

Saving this post for when barney the 180th Dino is explaining to us dry political drama that was supposed to be a beast tribe quest storyline but was expanded to fit a whole expansion.
