In a recent interview with Gamasutra, Cliffy B insisted that Japanese games cannot ignore multiplayer. Although his points are understandable, here are five reasons why multiplayer doesn't belong in Kingdom Hearts III.
Yuji Naka was fined $1.2 million and given a suspended jail sentence for the crime.
I find his comments around how Balan turned out to be very insightful as to why the game is trash. He basically apologises for its existence
can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?
Balan was knowingly rushed out by S-E, it had an extremely short dev cycle and was fairly low budget.
Naka was the game's director until near the end when he was fired or perhaps he quit, I forgot.
@Chocoburger Yeah they did fire and replace him which caused him to unload a bunch of rants about the company. The project only existed because of Naka in the first place, he convinced Square to give him one shot at making a platformer. They gave him an opportunity but pulled the rug out before he was done for reasons not explained.
The top producer of Square Enix flagship Dragon Quest franchise is stepping down from the role, following delays in developing the next installment of the popular series.
Please o please don't turn dragon quest into final fantasy square enix we dont wont that. Dragon quest works well just as it I. Plus you'll piss off Japanese fans to.
Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.

Lol, multiplayer in a Kingdom Hearts? No... Just no... Unless they do it like Birth By Sleep, with an arena for battling and stuff.
it could work, i would love to play others on psn.
1 and only reason, YOU DONT NEED MP IN EVERY GAME! Geez....what happen to the single player experience these days? Stop wasting time with multiplayer in area's it isn't needed....8 out of 10 of the tacked on multiplayer environments die within a year anyways.
So happy everyone is agreeing with me. Thanks for the read!
Jesus Christ, is this what the world of gaming is evolving into? Multiplayer in predominately sp JRPGs.. no.. HELLL NO! No further discussion needed.
