His intention is right, but he will never succeed because it is not in his DNA as a japanese game maker. Movies and Novels are great thanks to great narratives and profound characters and dialogue.

This is not something video game designer, especially those from Japan, are known for.

Sure there are exceptions, but they are exceptions.

If you want to make a game that has the impact of a great book or movie, read great books and watch great movies, then hire excellent literary staff and make a great piece. Otherwise, keep dreaming.

You don't watch anime i'm guessing, right? If yes, you should give Death Note a try and see for yourself what kind of drama a japanese mind can conjure up.
