Letter From the Producer IX.

[Radaghast]

I want to know whether the 50 dungeons are designed to be raids or just 50 group dungeons...

Guessing group since we don't have alliances.

It's ok because instanced dungeons and quest hubs will fix all that! ^-^

Ok now I'm getting scared. Does it mean SE's answer to copy/paste terrain will be copy/pasting those quest hub structures? XP j/k
I hope those battle related news will be released soon. It's the most important aspect of a mmo, after all we fight most of the time in games.

Only redesigned zones and better transportation (with the removal of instant teleporting) would fix that, but we know that isn't gonna happen.

Maybe they can make future zones so good I will never have to visit the current ones again. I also hope they don't plan on instancing EVERYTHING. I liked fighting my way through open dungeons like Phomiuna Aqueducts or Promyvion.

Yeah me too I agree! I loved fighting through COP zones, sneaking/fighting through Zvahl(sp) and stuff, exploring dungeons like davoi, the other orc place, the quadav places, castle oztroja, etc etc. ._.

[Radaghast]

Main problem I had with missions were the zones were sweet but like 80% of them were barely used outside of that because most of the mobs had retarded abilities.

I would suggest Blizzard only posts information in Chinese first.

I would suggest NCsoft only post information in English first.

I would suggest Bluehole Studio only post information and updates in English first.

Why on earth would a company not post in their native language as they can do it on the spot..?

I did not say SE should not post in their native language. It just makes sense that if you're going to post for an internationally released game, you want to give all your customers the information at once, not the japanese customers first. I think it's a matter of respect. Respect for the fact that we shelled out money for this game too and are also just as eager to hear what's going on, as opposed to saying, "It's not important, I'll tell you later." One thing I forgot to add is that they have the right to continue to do so, of course, just don't tell your fans to stop translating your posts if you won't release them in other languages simultaneously.

And why are low level dungeons a bad idea? Players of ALL ranks need something to do/places to explore. I mean that would be bringing the FF feel to the game as well. Also whats wrong with having some dungeons being instanced areas while others normal open areas? Seriously I know I keep saying this but Blizzard does NOT have a patent on instances and world changing events, just because the most recognizable ones are in World of Warcraft. And Guild Wars is a totally different story, since that wasnt really an MMO in the traditional sense any more than Phantasy Star Online was.


I sincerely doubt that EVERYTHING will be instanced since this is still Square Enix and they still do things their own way, even if its something thats been done in the field before.

Not for me, not feeling it.

Well it's ok because Shiyo was being sarcastic.
