FFXI Developer AMA on Reddit!
By ibm2431 2016-07-25 20:53:12
I am starting a drinking game. Take a shot every time SE says, "no plans".
We will contact your loved ones with condolences.
It's only been 10 minutes and I am immediately regretting this decision.

Quote: Q: 風水士と比べて最近詩人が物足りないような感じがします。 風水士と同じぐらいの性能になるような調整を入れる予定はあるでしょうか?
A:風水士と吟遊詩人は役割が少し違うので、単純比較は出来ません。調整が必要な時には、なんらか手をいれるかもしれませんが、現時点では特に考えておりません。(ふじと)
The roles for geomancers and bard differ, so it’s difficult to make a direct comparison. Once it’s at a point where we need to make adjustments, we may do something, but we currently have nothing planned in particular.
I didn't really have faith in the devs before, but goddamn are they THIS out of touch?

Quote: In the August Version Update, we’ll be making changes where it will lessen the amount of evasion that high-level monsters receive from AGI. Due to that, the amount of accuracy required will decrease. We would like to see how this change affects the situation and proceed from there.

Pretty much as expected so far lol

Only slight hope I have is the decrease in evasion for high-tier NMs. Fingers crossed.

It would need to be a pretty significant decrease for melee to be able to hit those NMs.

Who cares? You can't keep melee alive, buffed, and free of debuffs when hitting the high-evasion NMs anyway.

The only way I can envision the evasion change actually mattering for 140+ content is if they cut AGI out of the monster eva equation entirely, and even then you'd still need some hefty buffs for 145+.
So in all likelihood it's a minor QoL buff for the content we can already melee and won't do anything for higher level content, which is pretty much what we expected. There are other issues that keep melee out of 140+ content, and it doesn't seem like they have any intention of dealing with that.

Wouldn't it be easier to just increase accuracy for melee jobs ? They seem to have a crazy way of fixing problems.

Also this is good for a laugh:
Q:What are your plans for the future of FFXI? Can we get a road-map for the next year, like we have in the past?
A:We’re planning to have monthly Ambuscade content as well as Master Trials and quests through Records of Eminence every other month leading up to March of next year. Essentially we will be continuing on with this type of cycle, so there is no plan to release a road map.
By fonewear 2016-07-25 21:23:36
This is good though:
Q:Will you consider doing new expansions and content as long as you have a player base that is paying monthly subscription fees?
permalinkembed
A:Yes, we will consider this.

This is just silly:
Q With the current playerbase being lower, will there be a server merge soon? or at all?
Let's put this question to rest once and for all.
Typical SE answer:
A:Merging Worlds don’t always come without downsides, so we would like to hold off on doing that until a majority of players are calling for mergers. For those who cannot wait, please consider using the World Transfer Service.

So basically they are waiting till your server is so desolate that you are the only one on the server. Until then please use world transfer service !

they answered it~ :/

Speaks for itself:
Quote: Q; 有料のオプションサービスの実装はFFXIにとっていい効果がありましたか?他の有料サービスを追加する予定はありますか?
A:よい効果がありました。プレイヤーの皆様の理解が得られるようなサービスであれば、検討したいです。
The introduction of the new paid service had an overall positive effect. If there are services that we feel players would understand the introduction of, then we would like to consider them as well.
By fonewear 2016-07-25 21:48:14
Are they going to UN NERF Monk Victory Smite ?
When will you make Monk great again?
*crickets chirp*
As a lifelong monk this saddens me greatly.

2016 and still no plans of race change... Why is SE so afraid of money? A slightly more annoying solution would be allowing people to send REM weapons and equipment to other characters on the same account so if they chose to make a new character just to change race we don't have to play 10 years of catch up.

Regarding stacking medicines to 99:
Quote: This is not possible as we cannot add any new storage. As for changing the amount of the stack, this is possible; however, it will increase the amount available on the market to 99, and also would make it not possible to be placed on the auction house for a couple weeks due to the system. This will cause a situation where players won’t be able to purchase when they would like to. For this reason, we would like to try and avoid making changes.
...Does SE not know that NPCs sell meds?

The info about monster evasion going down in the next update. And them saying that new (graphically) armors and monsters can still be added, I guess.
