Final Fantasy 14 game director Naoki Yoshida says we’ll have plenty of chances to show off our strength in the MMO’s upcoming stories, but warns that you might have to do some reading. Our Warrior of Light was supposed to be on vacation in Dawntrail, and, while that didn’t pan out quite as we hoped, we still took more of a back seat to give the characters around us a chance to step up and grow. Patches 7.2 and 7.3 make it increasingly clear that approach won’t be possible moving forward, however, so we sat down with ‘Yoshi-P’ at Gamescom to discuss becoming the hero again, solving puzzles, and Dawntrail's focus on family.
