Crafters will have other unique abilities, such as being able to add their own colors or patterns to the equipment they make. It is also possible that shop signs will be made available to long-time players, although Komoto says they are still considering different options. As for battle, it appears that crafting classes may have some abilities that could be utilized for light battles, but have little strength when compared to a battle-oriented job.
Komoto reiterates how they plan to show pieces of FFXIV as the development cycle continues. They have focused extensively on Guildleve and information on the races is plentiful, so next up will be a deeper look into the Armoury System.

* I want you to go watch the FFXIV trailer right now. No, really, turn it on. That music you are listening to? Tanaka says it is the theme music for Limsa-Lominsa! The music currently playing on the official site will be used somewhere else in game but he doesnt reveal exactly where. Tanaka says the game will probably start with around 100 different tracks.

hgplayer1 said:pretty sure thats the same message at the end of the E3 trailer. Ive registered and never gotten anything from the site.
SamBishop said:That Malboro in the CG bit was insanity. I think it's fairly safe to say we'll see something on that level next gen given the biggest hurdle this one was getting things to run in HD resolutions. I sooooo can't wait for this game. Hoping it'll be the one that gets me back into MMOs again.
it had to be.Dreamwriter said:You sure that was CG? It's getting harder to tell, now that they are using motion-capture for all of their animations.
Khrno said:Unless it is the video's quality, I think many scenes (the first half in the tavern and the ship in the boat) are actually using the in-game engine since they don't look as sharp as CG (the fight scenes).
SolidusDave said:I really like the vibe of the town scenes.
the quests/mission etc. cutscenes will be SO good (facial animation, details etc.)
Yes. Probably foreshadowing the coming of the Garlean empire.Khrno said:Did anyone else have the impression that there is a disaster hitting that town of the trailer?
Nothing on the situation with MS yet.
