Tower of Fantasy queue times are chief among the fixes Hotta Studio promised coming to the MMO game, the dev team announced in a new blog post. The team didn’t say when the changes would happen, aside from a rather vague mention that it would be “soon.” The news comes after the August 16 update already increased the cap and attempted to shorten queue times. Along with these shorter queue times, Hotta said they’ll be implementing another server cap increase and beginning to roll out the first rounds of bans and punishments to ne’er-do-wells. Tower of Fantasy cheaters, beware.

Final Fantasy XIV Director Wants To Make “One More MMORPG From Scratch” Before He Dies
Final Fantasy XIV director Naoki Yoshida wants to make one more MMORPG “from scratch” before he dies.
“I am a game designer, so I always have several ideas for games,” Yoshida said in a recent interview with Inverse. “I can’t talk about them here, but I think that goes for any game designer. I am the kind of person who’s happy as long as they can make games, so while there isn’t anything in particular, I occasionally think that I would like to make one more MMORPG title, from scratch, before I die.”
Although Yoshida, affectionately referred to as Yoshi-P by the Final Fantasy XIV community, didn’t go into specifics on what kinds of ideas he would like to see in a new MMORPG (or whether it would be a Final Fantasy-branded project or not) he did spend the interview imagining what the future of both MMOs and online games in general could look like. Quantum computing, for example, could have major effects on the genre and video games in general in the next five to 10 years, according to Yoshida.

As a non-player, the trailer for Final Fantasy 14’s Patch 6.2, Buried Memory, is indistinguishable from every other patch trailer. There’s enormous boss monsters, several types of void, an incongruous cat creature, Death maybe… Where it differs is that there are also a few glimpses of the Island Sanctuary, FFXIV’s new solo farming content.
Watch it below ahead of the newly announced release date: August 23rd.

A release date has been set for Final Fantasy 14 Online patch 6.2, Buried Memory.
Releasing August 23, provided during the latest Letter from the Producer Live broadcast presented by producer and director Naoki Yoshida, the news was accompanied by a new trailer and information on the latest chapter that includes fresh battle challenges and the Island Sanctuary.
During the broadcast, Yoshida offered viewers a demonstration of Island Sanctuary, a new type of casual solo content that allows you to build and customize your own farm on a deserted island. You will do this by gathering materials, building facilities, caring for creatures, and more, without the need for prior crafting or gathering experience.
