| g-value said: @ Naznatips I wasn't mad in the first. I'm talking about FFXIII when you said this "I'm sure he's referring to the fact that it lacks almost the entirity of the staff responsible for developing the vast majority of that series." I brought that up because you comment was false. Nothing more nothing less. |
The majority of the Final Fantasy series was developed by Hironobu Sakaguchi who developed Final fantasy I-V, and then produced VI-IX. All the music up through FFX was done by Nobuo Uematsu.
Of the staff actually working on this game, only Tetsuya Nomura has been a part of the franchise for any extended period of time. He has done character designs from FFVI on.
Motomo Toriyama, the man who FFXIII depends on the most, has been nothing but an event writer for the majority of his work with Final Fantasy. He has only ever written and directed one other game in the franchise, and that was Revenant Wings on the DS. Aside from that his involvement in the franchise is scattered at best, and the only times he's served major roles have been in spinoffs like X-2.
The composer, Masashi Hamauzu, has only ever been involved with a single main FF game, FFX, and his role in that was secondary to Uematsu. The only other game in the whole franchise he worked on is Dirge of Ceberus...
In fact, the only person working on this entire game with any real extensive experience in a major role with the franchise is the producer, Yoshinori Kitase.Who was in fact responsible for directing or producing a lot of FF games since VII.
So yes, my statement that this gmae lacks almost the entirity of the staff responsible for developing the vast majority of that series is indeed accurate.
