GamingUnion.net: "Well folks, we're still in the thick of this blasted news drought; Nomura must still be hibernating. So, this episode Lauren, Darryl and Churro turn to the fans and their questions, and there are some good ones this time.
Who is their least favorite character? What would KH be without Nomura? And if they could create a new character, who would they be? This is a show for you, the listeners. Trust us when we say get in while the gettin' is good!"
Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."
Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.
HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.
It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.
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.
Definitely, the fanboiz are already foaming at the mouth for anything related to keyblades.
No Nomura means no asspulls and mindf***ery, so no, I wouldn't want him gone. :p
It'll go the way of FFXIII. Mediocrity.
Not that KHII was all that great. I still prefer the original.
good episode!
Imagine if he got tierd of all the side KH games and just couldn't be arsed for the thrid game which we all really want. I think then I would be pissed haha
I hope to god that by the time KH3 comes out they can port Birth by sleep/358/2 days and whatever else to the PS3 or NGP in a bundle because lets face it I can't be the only one who is going to be so confused by the time KH3 comes out. I like to enjoy a story, not be all like "wtf is going on" at the start of the game. I would read online like I did with Chain of Memories but I think theres too much to take in now. After I did that with COM I enjoyed KH2s story more :)
