With Ito directing and Nojima writing it can be a fresh world and the FFT team and other members who were hired will be the staff. I think Nojima will write as what exactly has he been doing? He is writing FF Versus XIII, but thats been in development for 7 years, unless he has spent 7 years dribbling over the same script page he should've finished the scenario (in fact scenario of versus XIII being completed was reported a few months back). Basically Kazushige Nojima is free of any project right now and even while he was writing for Versus XIII he had no other major project to work with (this is the man that handled FFX-2, KH1 etc all near the same time). |
Here's the thing though, would Ito really hire Nojima to write for his game or would he hire Matsuno who he has worked with twice on FFT and FFXII?
Then you've got the fact that Hiroshi Minagawa has already shown off a video of Rabanastre from FFXII running on Unreal Engine 3. If they are making areas of Ivalice in Unreal Engine 3 then it's likely there's a HD game set in Ivalice in production by Division 4. Would they really hire Nojima to write the story of a Ivalice game?
As I've stated, Nojima is very closely linked to Division 1. I doubt Division 4 will bring him over to help with their game. Even if Nojima is not busy right now, that doesn't mean he's not working on any unannounced projects for Division 1. Who is writing KH 3D? Who is writing Birth by Sleep: Volume 2? Who is writing other games that are yet to be announced in Fabula Nova Crystallis series?
We'll have to see, but if Minagawa is involved in FFXV along with Ito and the game is set in Ivalice, then there's not a chance that Nojima will be attached to the project. Matsuno would most definitely be the writer.
