Using GAF as a blog update system, this seems like the most underwhelming live letter ever. Are they telling us about an MMO or an airship simulator with buddies?

Airship builder simulator! You don't get to actually ride on the airships or anything crazy like that.
yet

The rest really seems to be a giant marketing pitch. This is definitely not what I was expecting as the final letter before the patch.

This should take much longer than that, though. If 50-60 takes as long as 1-50, it will still take longer because you don't already have a class at 60 to increase exp gain.

RIp Fat Cat and Baby Opo. Make room for our true lord and savior Carbuncle.

That and these are new areas where people don't actually know the most efficent ways to exp yet, especially since SE quite literally threw a wrench in some plans with the AoE nerfs.

I kinda hope so, just so people get used to how the new skills work instead of just getting there...but having no idea how to use things.

Wouldnt mind hiding stuff behind paywalls in a subscription MMO if they then didnt limit stuff like player housing, item storage, etc. behind excuses that the servers cant handle it - perhaps spend some of that income on the servers, hmm?

I'm like the opposite. I'm looking forward to the next cutscene every time. But I'm one of those who loved to watch all of the cutscenes in Metal Gear Solid 2 as well.

Oh thanks, so I won't get my fix until tomorrow. But it'll be online just when I wake up, and I got all day tomorrow.

It's over, it was OK even if we didn't learn much.
The game wil be available in 14 hours 30 anyway, but I'm not going to rush, I just want to unlock AST and level it a bit.

You guys got me to sit through the 2.55 cutscenes

NEVER AGAIN

I'll just go back and watch the interesting ones in the inn later.
Click to expand...

Pretty much. I'll wait for someone to tell me which are actually interesting. I'll read the text and so on but the rest? Meh.

plus, if it really matters that much, I have an alt to level anyway

Heh, I'm only up to like 2.2 cutscenes, but I kind of dig the post-game story so far. Nice to see the rebels cope with real-world shit dealing with refugees and rebuilding and such after saving the world.

I assume it ramps up to crazy town again, but for now its a refreshing change from lame prophecies and empires and shit.

A few people in the youtube chat thought it was Tactics heh. Guess that shows how much of an underdog 8 is.
Click to expand...

Tell me about it.
VIII and XII are my personal top two so jesus christ I don't think I need to tell you the shit I have to hear from the fandumb.

Anyways, I can't wait to see where the story goes in 3.0!

Is this a good place to ask about anyone who is interested in the Refer a Friend campaign?

I would love to recruit a new player so I can get the increasingly terrific rewards.

I just did the Benchmark for Heavensward, with everything on maximum and on Direct X11. I got a score of 9629. Which I assume is good? At Performance it says "Extremely High".

Preloading now. Getting hyped. Sucks about Twin being a recruit a friend mount and Carby minions being tied to plushies. How do they look? I am very interested in a Carby plushy.

Trying to line up people to recruit now, gotta make Twintania mah ^@$#.

Is there anywhere that has the specific details of that deal written up? Seeing as I missed the LiveLetter?
