What happens to CBU1 if FFXVI out performs all of these considering that FFXIV is already carrying the company?. If I were Kitase, Nomura, Nojima or Toriyama I'd be pretty fricking nervous and maybe even hoping that XVI bombs. We all know no one is going to buy any more of the FF7 remake.

        He hand picked Matsuno for FF12 and always gushes about him in interviews. Meanwhile he says nothing about Nomura or Toriyama and he's publically insulted Kitase.

          I wonder why Matsuno and Nomura never collaborated. He would have been perfect for the political conflict edgefest Versus was going to be since everyone says it was going to be "as fricked up as Tactics" and it even had a 12 writer who did the cutscenes in Vagrant Story and KH1.

      I'm not aware of him saying anything to this effect but I'm sure he can't be thrilled about Kitase and Nomura immediately jumping onboard with the new CEO's philosophy of creating endless spinoffs and sequels with asset recycling. That was the core disagreement he had with the other heads. Then the movie happened and well. .the rest is history.

      Sakaguchi loved nomura actually but he saw him a better fit for other projects. He's responsible for giving nomura Kingdom hearts and supporting him through the development of the first game even though he was on the way out already.

      You're right that he wanted Matsuno & co. to head final fantasy going forward though.

        Fun fact: Nomura wasn't even supposed to direct KH1.

        Streets say it was Hiroki Chiba who directed an ur-Gummi Ship game called Dynamitracer for the Satellaview under Nomura who made the concept before the two worked more closely on FF7, of which Nomura said many of the younger devs like himself and Chiba. But then all the core staff on 1 said "BAWWWW NOMURA SHOULD DIRECT BAWWWWWWWWWWW" and then now we have t h i s. Sakaguchi still liked what Nomura made though and said he didn't have to play it to know Nomura made a fun game.

              It has a story! It has a world to explore! The characters talk and talk to each other and you can use them to fight enemies! Wow!

              No wonder Nomura resents the world turning on him and his vision of a relevant (i.e. good) Final Fantasy. All the FF15 audience wants are empty sensations of interacting and understanding an imagined reality without enduring the uncomfortable work to get to that satisfaction. And look Forspoken has it complete with Whedon-tier dialogue. To think, it's being made by the rest of the KH2 team not working on 7R.

              This is the gaming market now. Not a single desire for meaningful action in sight, just vibes.

                Jesus, that's upsetting to think about. I can only hope that if Forspoken is now "complete" and being "polished" for the next 5 months that means the talented folk have been given the chance to move onto something else rather than being dragged into QA.

                As much as I would like to say that enjoy baiting him by using his narrative against Barry by saying that I can't help but think that it's true. Tokyo Team would rightfully have zero interest working on an open world game after the mess that was XV, but apparently Tabata had other plans and his team has to pick up his slack. Nomura meanwhile has his groove again as NEO shows. One of the 7R battle designers from the Tokyo Team moved to work on that game.

                That aside whatever talent should have been used on Type-Next and future KH games is now left gathering his leftovers that is this MCU quip game that of all things two days ago ended up vindicating a fricking Stellagay writeup.

          Literally says he left and took a risk doing so and that he wouldn't have left if he only wanted to do one thing, no one who was "fired" is taking a risk you seething frick.

          If you think he was fired then Terada, Aramaki, nakazawa and all the other lead devs on XV who were directors of the DLC and stuff throughout 2017 and 2018 wouldve been "fired" too but literally all of them got promoted to higher positions within luminous productions, Tabata left on his own choice.

          meanwhile nomura was fired from ffxv and forced to make kh against his will
          he literally said he wouldnt have made kh3 if he couldnt get toy story approved so he doesn't even want to make it

          lmao nope xv sold more in 5 years than 7 and 10 sold in 5 years so xv is selling better than those when comparing their release timespans

                Then you should be banned for these

                >no i love xv for its characters and having the freedom to explore and just stumble upon a dungeon with a strong boss at the end or actually having a sense of the world and its places and the lore actually happening in character dialog and cutscenes and in world items, not like ff13 where its only in a datalog
                >inb4 but 15 has a datalog too!
                >yeah added months after release and which just recaps info already told to you in the story or in dialog
                >13 has no sense of place, the is no sense of a world, the characters have a terrible dynamic which even after 3 games still doesn't work or feel fleshed out while the bros have easily the strongest dynamic of any ff and are extremely fleshed out even in just half the game.

                It has a story! It has a world to explore! The characters talk and talk to each other and you can use them to fight enemies! Wow!

                No wonder Nomura resents the world turning on him and his vision of a relevant (i.e. good) Final Fantasy. All the FF15 audience wants are empty sensations of interacting and understanding an imagined reality without enduring the uncomfortable work to get to that satisfaction. And look Forspoken has it complete with Whedon-tier dialogue. To think, it's being made by the rest of the KH2 team not working on 7R.

                This is the gaming market now. Not a single desire for meaningful action in sight, just vibes.
                Sometimes I look back on b4k and think to myself holy frick how did I write this? But I did sans greentext, of course.

                >Politics or romance in a story alone don't make a game good just from the premises.
                >Nomura has tried many times, with the Kingdom Hearts, to create pseudo love bonds, but with mixed results and even disastrous in others...
                >Trying to imagine something, starting from the basis of a simple concept, is to believe that everything goes smoothly, it will not be what it turns out to be the sum of the parts.
                >It has never been with any AAA games, not even the most famous ones.
                >And it certainly wouldn't have been for Versus either.
                >If I have to say what did not convince me?
                >The edgy style of how detached or emotionless Nomura's characters were throughout most of the trailers.
                >The fact that he was trying to awkwardly imitate Kingdom Hearts with the command bar, when he really didn't need it.
                >(moreover, not being original at all)
                >And above all the division into parts of his mind, in this project.
                >That with the times of him, it would have been comparable to the disaster he is making with Final Fantasy VII Remake. And now look where the FFVII Remake Part 2 is....
                >With priority issues like graphics, Nomura got burned.
                >(and now, with kh4, it he dosen't care even of Verum Rex in the end)

                In short words Versus made this guy uncomfortable because it was ambitious, tried to say things, had Kingdom Hearts combat and it had a message.

                He continued:
                >But I still enjoyed Final Fantasy 15
                >Precisely because it's a roadtrip game

                Nomura valued on the road trip just as much as his 'muh real world issues' story, but it was successful because all that mattered were cheap imitations of attacks and emotions sans meaning.

                I've said it once and I'll say it again, FF15 fans make me pine for a faceplant. More bullshit in pic. Jesus Stellagay would hate this guy and he's already tried to reason with Barry in TWEWY threads

                Oh you are SBK91 no wonder youre coping because nomura lost
                nope he said he likes ffxv and that it's a good game and said people say ff10 ff11 and ff12 are bad so they wont watch ff16
                literally was forced to end prematurely aka cancelled
                that literally means they have faith in it because they believe its such a big title that it releasing a month before gow would hurt gow
                indie devs goes to jump festa and tgs, you're coping and seething
                nope tabata was literally HEAD OF THE STUDIO lmao, he took himself off xv dlc because he wanted to promote the younger staff while he managed the entire studio and still producer
                meanwhile nomura was fired as director and isnt head of any studio...
                wrote ffxv so that means them writing ffxv was not against Nomura's wishes for the story changes since he kept specifically having them write things long after ffxv was out, debunking the whole narrative around how Nomura seeths over it
                nope the Paralympics ended so that game ended, he wanted to get started on his actual games too, meanwhile kh0.5 cancelled, kh xehanort console game cancelled, ff7r by cc2 cancelled, ff7r ps4 dlc cancelled, ff7r tifa chapter cancelled, khuxdr cancelled, ff16 ps4 cancelled, yoshitpisses new ip cancelled
                he literally posted profits despite having no game even up and running right now
                meanwhile nomura is losing SE money...
                You're coping and seething

                They actually added more story during production and its why the final chapter has been delayed for over a year.
                >at literally means they have faith in it because they believe its such a big title that it releasing a month before gow would hurt gow
                More like GoW would canablize forspoken's sales.
                >indie devs goes to jump festa
                Major game publishers go to jump festa. And you just admitted JP games is indie. At best.
                >ope tabata was literally HEAD OF THE STUDIO
                He was also head of the studio when he was director. But then was fired from the directorial position
                >isnt head of any studio
                He said he doesn't want to be, because his job would be constrictive if it was.
                >wrote ffxv so that means them writing ffxv
                They wrote the two Dissidia games before XV and worked on TWEWY after XV. What they did on XV doesn't mean Nomura liked it.
                >nope the Paralympics ended so that game ended, he wanted to get started on his actual games too
                Must be why space whale is the only thing still going on
                >he literally posted profits
                Barely any profits from the paralympics game. And now they have no moneymaker.
                >meanwhile nomura is losing SE money.
                Blanket statements like this are curious

    FFVIIR probably lost AT LEAST one million sales through a mixture of consolehomosexualry on PC and creating their """ethics""" board.
    >What would they have lost without the ethics board?
    Maybe 2K, tops. The activists are noisy, but they're a comparatively small group, most of them aren't customers, and most of the ones who are customers will say one thing and then do another. If everyone decided to start ignoring them right now, they'd probably be even less relevant than they were in the early 00s within five years.
