Announcing the Fan Festival 2014 in Tokyo Live Stream

**Vaspinne** · 2014-12-20 03:38

I wish I knew what they were saying +_+. It seems like they're doing a random fan-question period or something like that

**Vaspinne** · 2014-12-20 03:41

Or maybe it's a "stump Yoshi-P on FFXIV facts" or something =/. The vote/percentage is confusing me a little... as well as the whole not knowing the language at all

**Gokulo** · 2014-12-20 04:13

Damn, so much great stuff. Astrologian looks amazing, depending on the playstyle I might switch from sch main

I see people talked about CE - any shots of that?

Did Yoshi really complain about people using ACT in the same sentence that he said that they're not planning on implementing a DPS addon?

Fucking stupid.

Not really.

The guy's topic/question was that PC players are able to use 3rd party tools to check their DPS and Yoshida interrupted him to say those are not offical sanctioned. He froze then and never managed to recover from it, then began rambling on about using dummies with 10k hp and a 3 minute timer to calculate DPS or something. I mostly stopped listening as he wasn't being coherent nor making sense. The nico comments were cruel.

Yoshida tried to follow up with talk about the add on API instead, and ended up revealing that it should be out around 3.1-ish.

**Shenrien** · 2014-12-20 07:17

Just like when API was said to be released at 2.1-ish and here we are today still without it.

**The47thSen** · 2014-12-20 07:26

That concert at the end more than made up for the ticket price.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

**Shenrien** · 2014-12-20 07:42

The quality of the content shown during the stream is so much better than anything was ever shown at EU and NA ..

best any of the two got was the fat ninja that got a courtesy pass for last place in the cosplay contest.

**The47thSen** · 2014-12-20 07:46

The pianist.

Soken's mad interlude.
Not a very good pianist but a very talented musician nonetheless!

Spoiler: show

Well you know where to go to find it!

That camer guy just about dived into her cleavage! O_o My Jp side unconsciously went "OH SHIT TAKE A PIC NAO!"

*ahem* anyway, anyone translate the... "Yoshi P Room" apparently info of new 2.5 stuff is surfacing from it.

1. 2.5 will introduce the "last" of the artistan gear" (possibly more then crafter chest?)
2. 3.0 Crafting/gathering gear will have a "tombestones" to get gear

of course I can't confirm it, just people saying what was said in the "yoshi P room"

**Ratatapa** · 2014-12-20 15:41

Here's more info (dunno how legit it is)

http://guildwork.com/broadcasts/5495...2aa807609a7225

Here's the info condenced

A new convenient "Attribute System" has been planned!! (For black mages only)

It's a series of slides discussing planned potential changes to the black mage mana regeneration cycle. The first slide talks about the current system, and how they want to expand on it to give people more options.

Slides 2 and 3 discuss new potential (non finalized) methods they're thinking about to allow Black Mages more flexibility in their options. 枯渇 means "to dry up", and 回復 is "to recover". It refers to 氷属性 (ice attribute) and 雷属性 (thunder attribute) as abilities or stances (I think?) that you can set to use different sorts of rotations. The last page is:

We are creating a system wherein things like weapons and armor, enemy defense strength, etc will be affected by black mages using the Attribute System (Necessarily, we will reflect on rebalancing damage).

**I think this means that like when you're in fire stance, you'll get all the pros and cons of being a fire type creature, so you deal more damage to things fire is strong against, but also take more damage from things fire is weak against**

With this change, Black Mages have more choice in the types of attacks they can do (Something they didn't have before, lollerskates)

For black mages, regenerating MP should become smoother when combined with above mentioned formulas (Now if only they could use Aero, Stone and Water!!)

We have the feeling that the use of elemental attribute materia is going to increase!

Know how they often invite other developers or Yoshida's friends onto the PLL as guests?

Yesterday, they had the designer of FFT and Ogre tactics over. He's the mentor of the team's current lead designer. All that above is his idea, about bringing back elemental resists and attacks into the game. And how to fit it in to the game without fundamentally having to change the battle system. Except that the poor black mages will now need to collect weapons each of various elements rather than just one.

Obviously, Yoshida 'Accessibility' Noaki wasn't very receptive of it.

But there was another idea that Yoshida was very receptive off.

A FFXIII:LR type of event, but with an entire dungeon instead of various fates.

**Adajer** · 2014-12-20 18:17

Well, they did say they were rehauling battle system in 3.0

They did? where?

**Obsidian** · 2014-12-20 19:33

Never saw that said anywhere. The only overhaul I recall being mentioned was the Armory System.

Bringing back elemental resistances would be dumb. It would have the complete opposite of the intended effect.

I haven't played FFXIII:LR but what does Yiazmat have to do with that?

**Niiro** · 2014-12-20 19:50

That's what I was thinking too, aside from "do not want" @ another 13 crossover.

One of the early posts in Heavensward thread, someone linked things they said they expected to do get done in 3.0.

too lazy to look for it. I could be wrong, but I remember them saying they wanted to make some changes to battle system.

**Gulkeeva** · 2014-12-20 20:14
