Posted December 24, 20168 yr He also worked on FF all the bravest and Dissidia 12. Pretty interesting! http://www.inside-games.jp/article/2016/12/16/104227.html Edit-He's not directing, just working on the game-game design I think but don't quote me on that.

December 24, 20168 yr Couldn't they get the original director on board instead? he did create the original vision after all...
December 24, 20168 yr Author Couldn't they get the original director on board instead? he did create the original vision after all... Yoshinori Kitase is the producer this time. And no he didn't, almost every FF game is a team effort. Sakaguchi wrote the original script but he left the company 10 years ago, that script was a detective story and something completely different. Kitase and Nojima wrote the proper script based on Sakaguchi and Nomura's ideas. Edited December 24, 20168 yr by Barry Bacon Allen
December 24, 20168 yr Wait, I thought Nomura was directing it. Was this guy added on or did they decide to switch directors like with FFXV?
December 24, 20168 yr Wait, I thought Nomura was directing it. Was this guy added on or did they decide to switch directors like with FFXV? Yeah, what's going on? Also didn't Nomura direct those? Do you mean co-director or something...?
December 24, 20168 yr That's pretty concerning considering what All The Bravest was(a piece of shit) and the repetitive nature of 358\2 Days As if the fact that Nomura is directing it wasn't concerning enough(seriously firetruck Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus) Wait, I thought Nomura was directing it. Was this guy added on or did they decide to switch directors like with FFXV? He's still director from what I know Edited December 24, 20168 yr by Smash Mega Koopa
December 24, 20168 yr Nomura is the director of all the kh games. In 358/2 days he had a co-director working with him, in the same vein of Birt By Sleep which was co-directed by Tai Yasue. This is most likely becuase he cant be everywhere, at that time he was directing 3 games almost at the same time.

He only did the character designs. I thougth that Advent children was okay, it is mostly a fanservice film and it delivers in that way. :smile:

I wasn't denying the fact that it's a team effort, I just find it perplexing to have a slightly different team be in charge of remaking a pre-established franchise.
December 24, 20168 yr Author I wasn't denying the fact that it's a team effort, I just find it perplexing to have a slightly different team be in charge of remaking a pre-established franchise.The spearheads are the same. Originally Nomura did designs for all characters and monsters and contributed to parts of the story Nojima and Kitase wrote the script Kitase directed Sakaguchi produced Now Nojima writes script Kitase produces Nomura directs Only difference is that Sakaguchi isn't there. It's been 20 years so obviously the original team aren't there anymore. But BD1 made FF13 and the first two KH games.

Same people in altered roles. Of course, Sakaguichi is no with Square Enix so it's understandable that he's no longer involved.

Why can't every game be like 7 or 9 or [insert favourite ff game here]' people.
December 25, 20168 yr So wait, the directer of Days And Re:Coded will be co-directing the game with Nomura? Is that what this is? Edit: I thought that Dissidia 012 was an amazing game! Edited December 25, 20168 yr by The Transcendent Key

December 28, 20168 yr Edit-he's actually doing the game design, not co directing. Oh, I see! Game designing is like the overall feel of the gameplay and overworld and whatnot, am I right?
