The 13th Kenpachi 4,279 Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) He also worked on FF all the bravest and Dissidia 12. Pretty interesting! http://www.inside-games.jp/article/2016/12/16/104227.html Edit-He's not directing, just working on the game-game design I think but don't quote me on that.

Guest Posted December 24, 2016 Couldn't they get the original director on board instead? he did create the original vision after all... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The 13th Kenpachi 4,279 Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) Couldn't they get the original director on board instead? he did create the original vision after all... Yoshinori Kitase is the producer this time. And no he didn't, almost every FF game is a team effort. Sakaguchi wrote the original script but he left the company 10 years ago, that script was a detective story and something completely different. Kitase and Nojima wrote the proper script based on Sakaguchi and Nomura's ideas. Edited December 24, 2016 by Barry Bacon Allen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeybladeLordCheeseCurd 1,542 Posted December 24, 2016 Wait, I thought Nomura was directing it. Was this guy added on or did they decide to switch directors like with FFXV? 2 Sorarocks93 and PrinceNoctis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also didn't Nomura direct those? Do you mean co-director or something...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dio Brando 5,810 Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) That's pretty concerning considering what All The Bravest was(a piece of shit) and the repetitive nature of 358\2 Days As if the fact that Nomura is directing it wasn't concerning enough(seriously firetruck Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus) Wait, I thought Nomura was directing it. Was this guy added on or did they decide to switch directors like with FFXV? He's still director from what I know Edited December 24, 2016 by Smash Mega Koopa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkniteX 12 Posted December 24, 2016 Nomura is the director of all the kh games. In 358/2 days he had a co-director working with him, in the same vein of Birt By Sleep which was co-directed by Tai Yasue. This is most likely becuase he cant be everywhere, at that time he was directing 3 games almost at the same time. That's pretty concerning considering what All The Bravest was(a piece of shit) and the repetitive nature of 358\2 Days As if the fact that Nomura is directing it wasn't concerning enough(seriously firetruck Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus) He's still director from what I know No, Nomura didnt direct Dirge of Cerberus at all. He only did the character designs. I thougth that Advent children was okay, it is mostly a fanservice film and it delivers in that way. :smile: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wasn't denying the fact that it's a team effort, I just find it perplexing to have a slightly different team be in charge of remaking a pre-established franchise.

Originally Nomura did designs for all characters and monsters and contributed to parts of the story Nojima and Kitase wrote the script Kitase directed Sakaguchi produced Now Nojima writes script Kitase produces Nomura directs Only difference is that Sakaguchi isn't there. It's been 20 years so obviously the original team aren't there anymore. But BD1 made FF13 and the first two KH games. 1 PrinceNoctis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same people in altered roles. Of course, Sakaguichi is no with Square Enix so it's understandable that he's no longer involved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why can't every game be like 7 or 9 or [insert favourite ff game here]' people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted December 25, 2016 (edited) So wait, the directer of Days And Re:Coded will be co-directing the game with Nomura? Is that what this is?
