I'm actually impressed that he posts in english, matsui and previous FFXI devs just handed it off to community reps to translate for them.
I'm not saying they don't already do that, but he posts it on his account, and I've seen him post casually in english before in "fun" threads like cosplay etc.
on the first day of the XIV 2.0 alpha,he was logged in and talking in game in english!

Honestly it's probably a big reason for the game getting the second chance that it is.

idk c.c I read every single dev post and never saw him post personally.

There's probably an auto-translate program for the dev team. If there was it would probably be as messed up as the ingame auto translates.

I'm trying to avoid other sprite-based games/materials as much as possible while I work on mine to avoid copying styles and stuff.

I'm still going to make a huge world with lots of sidequests and optional areas, but it's not going to be open world.
The world map will be like FF9's in that zones can't be walked through on the world map, and you have to press a button to enter them. So some story zones (like a forest at the start) you can't avoid, but once you've been through those areas once, you can choose to skip them rather than having to backtrack all the way (but backtracking might reveal previously blocked paths and treasures).
As for bonfires... there'll be campfires... They'll act like Tents but without actually using any items up.

Hide stuff too and have stuff like notes etc that players can read for more information about people and the world etc >.>

There'll be areas on the world map that won't be as obvious as the storyline areas, too. Gonna have to keep your eyes open for anything that looks suspicious while on the world map or you might miss some good items or sidequests/bosses. :p

Aww yeah, DW8 is using unique conditions for each officer's ultimate weapons again. Hunting those down was the best part of the older ones, collectables everywhere!

SE is a billion+ dollar company, I'm sure they can afford a good translator even if it is a person doing it (which is how programs know how to translate lol).
Also, FF14 is a newer game :|
and i still say the OF is on ps2 servers xD

Jaerik was talking to us yesterday about the state of SE, and how he is actually looking forward to what they've done to XIV this time. He's been playing the beta a bit when he can and has enjoyed the changes, said "the A team came in and fixed everything".

Made me remember the sick joke that is FFXV and what will likely be the sick joke that is KH3

What do you mean? Because they've taken so long to develop or because you think they'll be bad?

The game was announced 7 years ago,and we likely wont see it for 2 more. The amount of money/time/development power sunk into it.
The same goes for KH3. He already said it was way,way too early to even announce KH3,but he understood why it had to be done. That game I'm not expecting to see before christmas 2017

I'm still looking forward to 15 since it has music by Shimomura Yoko, she doesn't really do all that techno crap

Dont get me wrong,I'll buy it,and I do hope it's good.
But the entire life of the game so far is a twisted joke.
Hell,including type-0,we'll have got 4 FFXIII games before we even get versus XI/XV,yet it was announced alongside 2 of the 4 games

I don't regret buying 13 because I like having it but I refuse to buy 13-2 and 13-3 >.> Buying 15 though
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
