An interview with Square Enix's battle director Atsushi Okada and planners Sei Sato and Kenichi Iwao discusses a number of topics ranging from the role of elements in FFXIV, to the importance of distance in combat, to how MP replenishment will work.
There is also a breakdown of a number of the game's Jobs including descriptions of their abilities and comments from the developers themselves. The jobs outlined include: Conjurer, Thaumaturge, Blacksmith, Miner, Pugilist and Archer.
Screenshots from the VanaFest 2010 opening trailer are also available, but what is most interesting is a single in-game screenshot that also features the game UI.
