Again size =/= time/space/whatever in the game

Heh

True, I mean look at Goldy's waifu games

Apparently the story takes 30 minutes but people play those for 100+ hours

Nomura said the pre-rendered cutscenes were making him afraid that he'd run out of space. I guess in the end he just gave up on pre-rendering everything.

There was around one pre rendered cutscene for each world right?

I doubt he was pre-rendering everything, but they do take up a chunk of the file

Mm yeah, and scaled for 4k too

Moral of the story, take everything Square says with as many grains of salt as all the oceans combined.

And the dead sea

Nah, moral of the story, take everything any developers say with many grains of salt

^

Everyone lies

I guess, but Square is just a special kind of special, y'know.

Well...I wouldn't go as far as to say lie, because things happens in development

I dont think nomura wanted KH3 to be what it is right now.

At least with FF7R he had others that were familiar with it

And worked with him

Definitely not, but sadly it is what it is.

But he is too much of a lone wolf with KH

Yes, unfortunately

Every game dev

Not that I blame them tho

Should have had an extra year, idc what people say. If the fans only knew that 2020 was the release date then they would be able to wait

And again, the company doesn't care that much about what the fans think of the development, there are other factors into it

It also didn't benefit from constantly being in the limelight

That's on the pr team

Well if they didn't care what fans want then they should have moved it to 2020 with more reason but I digress, this is ff7 channel after all

FF7R benefitted a lot I think from only recently getting talked about again

Yes, but I would imagine that Nomura also had some form of decision making or consulting when it came to how much the trailers would show, and if he didn't, that's incredibly firetrucked up.

Because there's such a short time between now and release
