Greetings, everyone!
Bayohne here with a brief report on the latest "Full Active Time Event" held in Fukuoka, Japan last weekend!

This time, Yoshida was joined by a special guest that wasn't from the FFXIV dev. team! The president and CEO of Level-5, Akihiro Hino!

(For some reason the photo Project Manager M sent me was really blurry... was it a secret photo!?)

Hino is a really hardcore FFXIV player, and even has all Disciple of War, Magic and Hand classes leveled! He regaled the audience with fun stories and everyone had a great time.

Hino even brought some fun gifts for fans! He crossed his main job in FFXIV, paladin, with characters from the famous Level-5 game "Yo-Kai Watch"!





Special thanks to Nagano from Level-5 for these awesome drawings!
Some day it would be really cool to see a collaboration like this!

Here we have a shot of the fans that came and joined us at the event.

As always, we brought a message board for the attendees to sign and we'll take it back to the office and hang it in the development area!

During the Letter from the Producer LIVE we also revealed the latest Eorzea Collection video!

Whew... I can't believe we're so close to the Fan Festival in Tokyo. We better get everything ready! We'll see you then!
