The Final Fantasy XIV site has been updated with a long written digest post from the last Letter from the Producer Live event. Among other things, players can learn more about the spotlight of the next update, the Manderville Gold Saucer. Yoshi P. said that the Manderville Gold Saucer was introduced in FFVII as an arcade location that is now being brought forward to FFXIV.
