Final Fantasy XIV - Kiwi Free Company

Automatic 150% volume SPEEN YOU WILL LISSENTOME.
If the "voice updates" just change "SPEEEN, LEESTEN TO MIII" im going to laugh
They would have to re-take the entire line, if that was altered. As I pointed out back here, there is some editing weirdness with the second SPEEN at around 0:52 in the clip, where everything but the mid-highs was removed in what looks like really questionable mastering. That is the kind of mistake that could be resolved just about immediately if that really was just an issue with the master, but if they had to re-shoot the entire fucking line -- that explains why it would take such a long time and not just quietly be changed in a minor hotfix.

Guess I need to resub to grab some footage of that line before it's gone. Not that we really know for sure that that's what's changing, but I mean what the fuck else could they mean? Was this written-by-HR script somehow offensive to something other than good taste?

I think that there were some botched lines that would have necessitated a re-recording. The big one I recall is Wuk Lamat's big coronation speech fucking up the giant's homeland, saying it was Ok'Zundu. I can't recall if that line was voiced or not.

I believe there's one other flubbed line naming the wrong location.

It might also be fixing some of Thancred and Yshtola's dialogue as they both sounded like they were talking through a soup can tied to a line of copper.

One interesting thing I noticed is that Wuk Lamat has been buried as much as possible. The patch graphic has Bakool Ja Ja (the one new character everyone seems to universally love) and the Hispanic Catboy was featured in the trailer.

I'm curious if this is going to be a bait and switch or if the damage control is already starting.
 
So the whole hairstyle controvesy blew up bigly, even the original design responded in the forum thread and was upset about it. Well a CM has responded finally

"We approved this curly hairstyle, but curly hair is too hard for us, pls understand"
If it was possible to do so devs should have just chose a different hair style to win the contest if modeling curly hair is so horribly difficult for them. Though yet again this reveals their incompetence so it may be a bit of a blessing in disguise.
 
At this point, I just keep hoping the XIV dev team continues shooting themselves the foot this whole expac cycle so that they're forced to pull their heads out of their asses for the next expansion.
Most certainly things will stay just as shitty for the whole patch cycle, but I suppose things could change in the next expansion. I remember reading that Yoshi P had multiple expansions planned ahead though, so hopefully that’s subject to change.
