Another interview with Tetsuya Nomura has divulged one of the director’s mistakes (with possibly more to come) regarding the Final Fantasy VII remake as well as Kingdom Hearts III, claiming that the games were “revealed too early” – a very clear sign considering the heavy unrest amongst fans.
According to the interview, Tetsuya Nomura found it difficult to find a time to announce Kingdom Hearts III, possible leaks and fans believing in fake rumors being outcomes the director desperately wanted to avoid:
“The same thing happened with the remake of Final Fantasy 7. I am well aware of the fact that we announced it too early, but even in the industry, word was beginning to spread that we were working on the game, so we just decided not to keep it more secret and officially reveal it.”
Thankfully for Kingdom Hearts fans, information on the game has been steadily coming out in the form of trailers, with Nomura even promising to deliver more in the coming months:
“I’m sure a lot of people will be more surprised by the trailers we’re going to show in the following months than by the ones we’ve shown so far.”
Unfortunately, the much more highly anticipated Final Fantasy VII remake has had absolutely nothing unveiled in the past few months, driving fans into a frenzy and creating a rather volatile situation that the director was likely hoping to avoid…
So… then he means he showed it right on time then? Cause hell I mean when was the last time this guy even worked on a game that didn’t get announced like a millennia before it actually came out? S’pose the Kingdom Hearts side games came out kinda pretty much on time right? But that’s all I can remember in a looooooong time.
Dumbass needs to learn to stop biting off more than he can chew and focus on ONE game at a time or something. I always pictured him like some kinda cloud cuckoo character who just does whatever random thing he wants and his subordinates basically have to chase him around all day trying to keep him focused on his actual job.
Tetsuya: “So what’re we doing today?”
Subordinate: “Finishing up Kingdom Hearts III and… sir are you even listening?”
*Tetsuya is looking at a butterfly outside*
Tetsuya: “Meh I drew a picture last night of a guy with a bunch of belts on so I’m taking a break now. Let’s just delay it again.”
Subordinate: “B-but sir!?”
*Tetsuya is already outside chasing butterflies*
But it was mainly because of Square Enix mismanagement there was an interview years ago where Nomura mentioned he did not know about it until after the trailer released.
Maybe he’s finally realizing that if he fucks this up, final fantasy as a series is pretty much dead outside of FF14. There’s that much at stake, and they’ve only revealed like 2 characters as of yet. Not great, FailEnix~
The series died long ago, he’s probably just tired of the death threats.
No no no, it’s SquareFail; s♥♥t didn’t start spiraling until after Squaresoft merged with Enix.
It os called mismanagement
They need to stray away from the modern boy group love fest with plot holes, and go back to the knights and mages for a bit, one or two games, FF9 was a well needed break after 7 and 8, they need another one like 9.
while FF10 is regarded as a great game in the series it was mostly a dungeoncrawler but with a great story.
FF12 came great gameplay but shitty main character design and mediocre story.
with it’s FF10’s success and the s♥♥t FF12 got they thought that people like dungeoncrawlers and made FF13 that was utterly s♥♥t in story with a even more shitty combat system, only the visiuals are good.
FF15 is also damn good in visiuals but have gone away from the JRPG genre towards an action game with RPG elements such as Zelda…
so if return semi-turnbased gamestyle, medieval art-style and the old knight’s and dragon’s stuff it would been a great break off from the s♥♥t that have been lately from Square Enix
“NO s♥♥t”
My response yeah, no fucking s♥♥t.
i couldn’t care less tbqh.
If they actually left the series alone it would be better
