I think someone here got it right, but only 1. Sure, I see this coming out as DLC, but that's a side effect; it wasn't their main reason. The main reason, is the FMVs. Square got carried away with them, and when it came time to go to the chopping block, it was either chop the FMV we spent $1m on, or chop these game assets which are still being worked on. The game gets the shaft, and the FMV gets to move on.
