A wave of layoffs in Square Enix sparks worry, as the company enters the second year of its three year restructuring plan. We discuss the impact this will have on Square Enix as a whole, and if it will affect Final Fantasy XIV at all. The voice of G'raha Tia, Jonathan Bailey, was awarded the title "Sexiest Man Alive". We discuss if Jonathan Bailey is about to be replaced due to his likely high cost and limited schedule now. We also discuss mysteries in video games - and the risk of revealing too much. We also discuss SE's recent announcement about their push for AI, aiming to replace 70% of their QA teams with AI.
