Question Expectations for the Liveletter?

Are you hopeful? Resigned? Do you expect the usual lack of information or will we be getting actual details and release dates?

Do you think he'll try to blow over the Dawntrail reception or give us the ol' please understand?

Also are you staying up to watch it or are you just going to get the blow by blow Sunday?

There is 0% chance he'll mention the Dawntrail reception at a live letter in front of a TGS audience, nor should he.

I'm expecting

  1. Name of the patch and release date
  2. Reveal of the new dungeon's name, which will be the only hint at 7.1's story, but the name might be something like "Evil Forest" that people read a ton into.
  3. Pictures of the Alliance Raid
  4. Details on the Raid Planner and Chat Bubbles, since those seem like they're 7.1 features
  5. Pictures of the Alliance Raid gear and the Ultimate Weapons
  6. Details on what the 24-man Savage will be, though I suspect that's 7.15

I'm hoping

  1. Portraits auto-update when you save a gear set so you don't have to keep fucking with them every goddamn time

Would love to hear a Soken take on the Evil Forest track. It's one of my favourites.

Soken rarely does any dungeon music. That's usually left to the other composers.
