That was a Great Sword listed on the unity voucher that on the Japanese website was Montante +1 I was refering to Kupon A-119, Kupon I-119, Kupon AW-119 that have the following line:
* We will update this information when the items names have been set. *** I forgot to spend all my ambuscase points. RIP 45k points.
The unnamed item will prolly be 10,000 of REM stones of your choice or a maybe they made a all-in-1 10,000 version, but that's my guess

Very skeptic on the utility of such an initiative, but it's clearly not addressed at players like me.
In general I think it's a nice thing, I'm glad it's gonna happen.

One of the community reps streams on Twitch frequently, I'd bet she's the one triggering this. Kinda pointless if you're not in a US time zone, and I figure most of what they'll be saying there is already on countless other videos and guides, but who knows, maybe'll it'll be a first step towards other more interesting things. Unfortunately, we've seen the devs play so "1hr every mob" might be a slide all its own.

More interesting is that the screenshot shows identical stata in two different gearsets. Maybe they haven't decided on stata or it literally just rolls set/trait/ability enhancement over to AF. Just so you guys know, those community reps do actually play and one or both actually post on this forum. They aren't the herpderps most of you seem to be implying them to be.

Bring them farward!! Reveal yourselves you cowards!! Lol :D Would be pretty cool if they actually did participate on the *real* forum. This is of course only my opinion but I feel like this forum and BG are where the players REALLY sit down and talk when we aren't trolling.

Umm I believe if you work as a GM or community rep for a game you can't reveal your personal char name if you work for the company because players will approach them and bribe them or something. I'm kinda surprised that Kyte actually know who they are tbh. Afania said: » I'm kinda surprised that Kyte actually know who they are tbh.

I recall that in a LS Kyte and I joined back near the beginning of SoA that one of the members was apparently Camate. Never got to ask him about that myself, but it seemed like it was commonly accepted in that group. It kinda abruptly fell apart after the leader quit for XIV. Maybe Kyte can verify?
Yeah, I don't think they're supposed to say so I'm not going to out him.

Any good info on Ani event? Been doing it for a couple hours now thinking I would unlock some more things to purchase, but no go.

Umm I believe if you work as a GM or community rep for a game you can't reveal your personal char name if you work for the company because players will approach them and bribe them or something. I'm kinda surprised that Kyte actually know who they are tbh. Not exactly. One of the two community reps in this upcoming stream actively streams on twitch and her character name is known. The thing is that community reps don't have a whole lot of input, NA reps just bundle up information and send them to Japan, and they will have "inside info" but it's not like they control the game in any fashion, they are still pretty low on the totem pole. So the only advantage is you can get some information early. They're also not GM's and don't have GM powers when playing as their normal character. That said, they aren't as terrible at this game as the Devs are since they are real players, at least both of these ones were FFXI players before ever working at SE. I forget the timeline on the regular twitch streamer but she was a streamer before getting the SE job, though she mostly spends time on other games (Phoenix Wright, FFXIV) and just does FFXI streams for storyline, mostly.

Honestly, someone on the team surely does because this game has some very creative jobs and maintains reasonable balance across the spectrom (content-design is more often the problem than job design), but you can watch the videos of some of the stuff they do and... herpderp is a good word for it. Watching the live-thing during maintenance..last month I think..and it seemed clear that the operator wasn't even comfortable with the camera controls. It frequently seems like the people that know how to program don't get to talk to the people that know how to play. Lol! They are doing it on asura. So they will get trolled hard I'm sure. Wish I could be on at the time.

Watching the live-thing during maintenance..last month I think..and it seemed clear that the operator wasn't even comfortable with the camera controls. It frequently seems like the people that know how to program don't get to talk to the people that know how to play. Well, all of the developers play the game to some degree. But most of them are very casual. Matsui has an interview out saying he needed to get his teenage son to come power level him in Abyssea because he couldn't do it himself, lol...and those are the people that do the videos showing things. This is also why for significant periods of time we'd have updates that mostly focus on "beginner" endgame issues, and not final tier stuff, because none-one of the devs play this game hardcore. But the people doing the livestream announced are community reps, who are current NA players (one of which has an aeonic or two on their character) so they'll actually have some semblance of knowledge of the game. Though I highly doubt they'll have windower running and gearswap being used, so they won't be *that* good.

Game just doesn't read swaps fast enough. That's why they said "*that*" good.

Unfortunately, this ^ Asura can't go a single day without drama so it will be interesting to see if the best of our community is represented in the stream lol. We shall see! Worst case they call over to the GM department and hand out bans on some people. Or in the cases of certain people...additional bans.
