That I took Final Fantasy in a direction that maybe is a little bit more mature and more core gamer-focused, with a more visceral representation of violence. So maybe I can be remembered as someone who made that kind of necessary evolution of the series or took it in an interesting direction. I’d be happy with that.” Tabata I honestly don't even know how to comment on that part... Considering the history of this project It is well-known who planned and executed all the basis of this game. Especially the ones mentioned here. Must be an Interesting situation Nomura is going through, heh. |
I don't think he minds. everybody knows this project is Nomura's, and he'll certainly be credited (either special thanks or story or original idea or even co-director). Plus, Tabata has been the co-director ever since the game ACTUALLY started development, so he has credit for it too. And Nomura probably decided himself to leave this project to focus on KH3
