Q22: Please tell us more about chocobo raising!

A22: We'll first be releasing housing, but you'll be able to set up a chocobo stable and purchase a baby chocobo to raise. Once you have a chocobo stable you will also be able to do things like breed chocobos and train them.

Sounds fun!

Oh God... Goblins. Amount of times they have jabbed me with that knife v.v

Looks like ordinary running and sprint are two different animations and not just the run animation but faster, at least for manqote. Good work S-E.

Q26: You previously stated that you will be changing how the gear set works. Could you be a little more specific?

A26: We are planning to completely overhaul the gear set system. The temporary, work-in-progress, name for the new system is called the "Armoury Board." The current plan is to show a catalogue of items that player owns and players will be able to create different alias for their created gear sets.

WIN! /10chardammit

But is it still 1 item per set? or can you make an alias for an item and use in multiple sets? thats the real ?

They wont say they tweak it if its not the case

[InuraBera]

I'd assume with the huge changes to original gear set layout, this is to deal with the single item per set thing.
As to the endless loop, I'd assume they have full control over starting events and such at the moment to show it off, a few of the interviews and Reinharts translations say they have about fifteen minute breaks if victorious, and restart quite quickly if you fail.

WAS THAT THE MALE MIQOTE DANCE????????????

[SaikaSyvari]

I like the treasure map idea

[EniixLingod]

They should keep the big monsters, regular and NM/HNMs if possible. I mean who doesn't want to fight something that towers over them easily? Of course don't over do it with ten thousand giants roaming the land XD (Then it would be like that one world in Super Mario 3)
