I hope he enjoys whatever he does next. This won't affect development of 15 as it's in full swing someone just steps up and becomes lead, it's just like any other business.
Leaving the job of lead programmer of game as huge as this one to go work on a mobile game says a lot on both Square Enix and FFXV'state. It probably won't affect the development, but that news is still worrying in my opinion.
They have a deep team of programmers. Leads take all the input (no pun intended, I hate puns) from the team and together they make the necessary changes, or gameplan to accomplish the given job. TheLyonKing is right... they will probably promote from within the team and keep trucking. It's like trading a basketball player mid-season. It isn't necessarily good or bad. Only the development team knows how big or small the change is.
2012? Since development on Ps4 began, was it not? Not that long anyhow.
Either way, main programmer leaving is huge. Any issues arise SE need him to come back in and fix them as another programmer stepping in can be a difficult task
i ve lost any hope for this game ..first it takes years to complete , from exclusive compromised and went multiplatform and now key developers go away ...Square became a crappy company ... sell the rights of FF VII to Sony at least so you dont screw up a possible remake
i think he sick of SE policy, project like FF Versus 13 or 15 toke 8 years and still not released this the biggest joke i ever heard. main programmer its impotent guy, he is the key of how games program should run. wish good luck for that person.
Although I agree with what you're saying, it's hard to delay a game with no release date.
OT Either the game is "complete" and waiting on a release date which he then decided to move on, or someone REALLY f-ed up and he decided to work somewhere else.

Kentaro Yasui was the main programmer for Kingdom Hearts/Kingdom Hearts II. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm...
That's a pretty big fish to lose Square Enix.
I pray this game comes out within 2015. It is my most anticipated next gen game.
