Square Enix needs to fire every director/producer that isn't Nomura and Ito. Only then can they be saved.


Don't fire Naoki Yoshida. He's turning FFXIV into a masterpiece with the reboot. Also, don't fire Yoshinori Kitase, but demote him from producer to event planner.

No Kitase has to go, he's part of the problem.  I'll say he is the problem cause Toriyama should have been fired for the mess that Final Fantasy has turned into and Kitase's probably keeping him employed.


When you put it that way, I totally agree with you. After all, Tanaka got scapegoated for FFXIV when he didn't even direct the game. He was only the producer. That's the exact same role Kitase had on the entire FFXIII trilogy and also Dirge of Cerberus: FFVII.

I'm telling you, I lost all respect for Kitase when he started talking out of his ass for Final Fantasy XIII.  I couldn't stomach the written interviews with him.  He still probably has his head up his ass which is why Lightning Returns is getting made: "People like Lightning and want more of her", no people don't, which is why no one asked for this sequel.  Bump some guy into Kitase's position, give Nojima Toriyama's position and all will be right with Square.
