This is not fair for Nomura. Himself and his team has sacrifice development time for FFXV (FFvXIII) to help make FFXIII/FFXIII-2/FF-Lightning Return and to rebound FFXIV:ARR.

This is what I think really happen.. SE want FFXV to go multiplatform, therefore Nomura couldn't achieve his full vision by focusing on one console, so he step down for like boss..

I doubt it's that at all. Design wise the game should be pretty much complete now (as should the story), so it's just a matter of building the assets and putting it all together. Nomura isn't really necessary for that, so it's best he concentrate his efforts on the game further back in development.


They showed footage of it running on PS3 a few years back in tgs behind closed doors. Man I wonder how he feels to have all that years of work scrapped.

Not as bad as you think.  You gotta remember, they raided Nomura's entire dev team to finish Final Fantasy XIII and probably Lightning Returns.  Nomura was working with a skeleton team working on concepts since they couldn't do much else.  Scrapping the work on the world map on the other hand, that probably hurt.
