A couple of months again, one esteemed Ultimate Fantasy 14 participant obtained the entire 2,751 then-earnable achievements for the primary time ever. That is 10 years for somebody to nab each single accomplishment, with one achievement alone time-gated to round seven years of laborious work.
Properly, if that Warrior of Mild is on the lookout for an excellent larger problem, director and producer Naoki Yoshida is more than pleased to supply it to them. Talking by way of a translator at a press convention throughout London’s Fan Pageant, Yoshida mentioned, “At the beginning, I simply need to say wow, massive congratulations,” including “to see that participant simply keep it up, simply urgent on… as a creator of an MMO that is a very implausible factor to see.”
Whereas achievements often get added throughout each main patch—for issues like story quests, new dungeons, and different duties—Yoshida is open to implementing one thing particularly for this one very decided participant. “After all we are going to proceed to make achievements within the sport, however whether or not we create an achievement which might be the next problem, that each one boils all the way down to this sure participant. If they’re requesting it, then in fact we would be pleased to do it. In that case, simply drop us a message on boards.”
I could not fairly inform if it was a joke initially, but it surely looks as if Yoshida actually is severe about dedicating a little bit one thing to them. “If you happen to do ship us the message, I belief you. We are going to maintain our promise.”
It is a good solution to honour a participant who’s clearly spent an terrible lot of time in Eorzea and exploring all it has to supply. I do know if I used to be on this participant’s footwear I would be taking them up on their supply, although I dread to suppose what depraved issues Yoshida and the workforce may cook dinner up in response. Hopefully not an achievement that wants one other seven years to finish, eh?
