Japanese translators.. Sounds like complaining. Some ppl do good work with a launch kit, others blame anonymously. |
Who says they didn't do good work? But it's the tools that prevented perhaps more of a good work. And this applies to all devs if BigN ships the same software to every studio.

It sounds a little to me like a guy making excuses for not being happy with himself. But i'm just pulling it out of thin air. It sound like me in operatingsystems class and compiler design. My teachers were a pain and didn't help much. The tools we used were not well understood. Our deadlines were short and expectations high. I did a good job and passed but i sure bitched! I blamed everything i could for making it difficult. A lot of us did. But there were ppl that did it easily..
And don't forget the tools have surely improved since launch.. strange he left that out don't you think?

Compiler desing was quite easy to me, too, but whatever.
He described the situation where it all started and made clear the situation it was at the beginning with all the different dev-kits and all the stuff. Of course stuff improves but who knows if he still has to code for the system.
