| darkknightkryta said: That's the problem; with Wada's infatuation with the "west" he's gonna want less RPG elements in the games. You gotta realize making a world, npcs, and the like take a lot of time, more than most other genres of games, 2 years is not enough time to develop a proper RPG. |
i dont think Wada can be held accountable tbh, hes a buisness man, i dont think he has anything to do with the way the games are made, he just runs the company. and i dont think its just Wada whos been infatuated with the west, because Toriyama has discussed how hes tried to make FF13 more like a FPS, and Kitase says that FF13 isnt designed to be an RPG.
and imo these problems with the development team seems to come from the top-down structure. as in 1 or 2 people calling the shots, and the problems that are occuring that the 300 members of staff were having were simply not addressed by this structure, because theres simply too many people to be managed in this way. but for these reasons i think its impossible to blame Wada alone...
