    He will need some Hollywood-level make-up artists to not look like an Asian zombie.

    9 months of 3h sleep a night and counting?

    Well this is was unexpected, I welcome this. Its highly unusual from a Japanese company but got to repair that brand name somehow and it has to be something new.

    Fuck yeah Yoshi-P putting in that work and going the extra mile to reach out to the community. This is what I wish SE would've done years ago.

    Dude definitely has been taking pointers from Western Devs.

    Edit: For those that dunno maff: October 4th, 2011 at 5:00 PDT / 8:00AM EST. Mark that shit on your calendar and take a break from Dark Souls.

    Yeah, and it's the old way of thinking they need to get away from.

    In this age of social media/youtube/streaming, your community needs to see and hear more of you often. What Yoshi-P is trying to do I compare to what Ono-San is doing with Capcom's fighting game community: Be more visible. Post, tease, hell even troll us via forums and twitter (as in Ono's case), do it often and respond. It finally seems SE is understanding this.

    I'm sure other genres are doing more of the same thing nowadays, but the same principle applies. Especially in this climate where gamers are jumping from one game to another, gotta keep us interested and talking about your game.

    Damn it, he will air this when I have to leave for classes.

    EDIT: Will he be answering the most common questions from the forums? Or will there be a way to submit something?

    It sounds like they're using social media and the forums to field questions from users then answer them in real time. Watch them pick the most herp derp questions.

    Thank god Dark Souls isn't out yet here when this happens lol. I'd be in bed either way, guess I'll wake up/stay up for this.
    Unexpected and a good way to celebrate the anniversary of this game.

    These are the subtle reasons I have some renewed faith in Square Enix. It's just going to take a while before we see some titles that have had this new attitude from the start.

    Kuro's post said 8 PM EST and my Lodestone only says 12:00 GMT with no am or pm mentioned there. Thanks for being an ass though.

    Yep that was my bad. I thought that the initial post wasn't using 24 hour time. Bayohne corrected it on the forums: It's actually 5 AM PDT / 8 AM EDT.

    Pay no mind to Hyan. Hes extra salty about new Ifrit weapon design. lol
