Sakaguchi gets FAR too much credit. He created the series, but he didn't even direct the most beloved FF's IIRC. 6, 7, 8 (the online forums are generally the public that hates FF8, don't get pulled into the herd/dogma), 10 and even Chrono Trigger were directed by Yoshinori Kitase. If he did direct 6, 7, 8, 10 and Chrono Trigger they would have been unbelievably simple and linear. I'm not saying there wasn't some linearity (is this a word? lol) in some of those games, but the linearness (...is this a word?) would have been greater if Sakaguchi directed them.
This will only take a moment of your time. *steals your watch*
