SE hiring for FFXIV GMs and testers?

Jobs | SQUARE ENIX

They're hiring game testers to start this month and hiring for GMs with knowledge of MMORPGS(particularly FFXI) to start work in September. This is the EU branch, by the way.

Beta starting in September?

I know this is probably going to start another speculation thread but I figured it needed to be posted.

Took a look over at the NA side of things and it looks like they are looking for an MMO Community Manager, so it looks like they're starting the hiring processes now.

That should be a difficult job.

They have an accountant position open...

[Crucent]

im applying for the GM position!

They pay GMs? You'd think they work for free with their extensive list of duties.

Mid September is when FFXIV Beta comes out! Maybe October assuming 2 weeks of training

You have to be trained to say:

"I don't know"
"I'll look into it"

then do nothing?

When it says Los Angeles, CA. Does that mean you'd have to go out to Cali to work for them Izzy?

You pass the course when the teacher asks if you understand and you tell him, "I don't know. I'll look into it."

A better strategy would be for them to hire GMs with knowledge of FFXI for FFXI.

By the same logic, it would be wise to hire GMs with knowledge of FFXIV for FFXIV correct?

I understand what you meant(GMs don't understand FFXI), but let's keep this thread troll free, and FFXI comparison free, k?

That's what got the last FFXIV thread locked.

[Howard Roark]

should just have the current GM's cater to both FFXI as well as FFXIV, not like they get anything done in FFXI, may as well do more of the same when they moonlight as FFXIV GM's

[xopher]

This would be a bad idea. They would get their games confused.

[SubzeroDiabolos]

Who knows, maybe SE learned a lesson with FFXI and GMs are only going to be called for texture glitches/going out of bound or random drama free stuff because game will be perfectly balanced?










lol yeah right.

Yes, but I have friends there so whatever!

Indeed. It even happened to me the other day. Someone asked me what item you wager for the Illumina in the coliseum, and I told him the item was a rare drop from the equally rare Pink Puff encounter on the moon.

This honestly happened to me when I was playing Lunar and Vay at the same time on Sega CD when I was a kid. I was playing Lunar searching for items that were only available in Vay.

That's when I decided I would never play two RPGs at the same time again.
