Ferne seems to be on fire today (figuratively, I hope), posting a record shattering three blog posts in the same day! For the sake of not flooding the headlines posts, however, we'll put them all into one large topic.

Greetings FINAL FANTASY XIV fans!
Fernehalwes here with some photos of Yoshida-san straight from the Japan Expo 2013 currently being held in Paris, France.
After a morning filled with interviews and filming video letters for international media outlets while posing as a megalocephalic chocobo...
...our tireless producer made his way to the ridiculously spacious main stage where he gave a presentation on the finer points of A Realm Reborn...
...to what appears to be THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF FRANCE.
After the performance was over, Yoshida-san donned his...personalized towel???
...and headed over to the signing event, where what appears to be THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF FRANCE had lined up with hopes of meeting the big P...
...and getting his John Hancock scrawled across their posters, copies of FFXIV, shirts, midriffs, house deeds...
...moogles...
MOOGLES!?
Won't anyone think of the chocobos!?!?

Hello everyone.
Fernehalwes with another update from the Japan Expo.
It seems like only yesterday when at a certain game show (let's call it E3), a certain producer (let's call him Yoshinori Kitase) from a certain game (let's call it Lightning Returns: FINAL FANTASY XIII) burst into a certain Letter Live (let's call it a Producer Letter Live) to 'ask permission' to use Miqo'te gear in his game. It also seems like only yesterday when Yoshida-san promised he'd think about adding something from Lightning Returns to FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn.
Well...if the latest Japan Expo stage presentation is anything to go off of, the ARR development team has been hard at work:
â–¼The Empire can only be defeated with silent stare!
â–¼Hempen this. Oaken that. What Eorzea needs is more pizzazz!
â–¼Unwitty comments aside...I have to admit, that's freaking ADORABLE.
â–¼Lightning never strikes twice? Poor Snow...

Hello all!
Fernehalwes back with that second video I promised─the brand new in-game walkthrough we just released at Japan Expo! If you haven't watched it yet, WATCH IT NOW! If you've already seen it, WATCH IT AGAIN! If you've already seen it multiple ti─WHY ARE YOU STILL READING THIS!? WATCH THE WALKTHROUGH NOW!
Did you catch all the new areas? Coerthas has been one of the dev team favorites since its recent completion.
Everyone was so excited to see the snow, we all had to head out and take some screenshots to commemorate the occasion. Here's one with all nine jobs (and their pets)!
Wait... What is that behind everybody...?
