I en intervju med Glixel berättar skaparen av Final Fantasy-serien, Hironobu Sakaguchi, lite om sina tankar kring det nyligen släppta Final Fantasy XV. I synnerhet ett av svaren stod ut, nämligen det om kompositören Nobuo Uematsus (gjort nästan all stor Final Fantasy-musik) uttalande: "I think that the day Sakaguchi-san left Squaresoft, they should have stopped making Final Fantasy."
Det här är vad Sakaguchi, som lämnade Square Enix 2004 och grundade Mistwalker (Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey), hade att säga om den saken:
"When I first left the company, I did feel that Squaresoft was taking the games in a direction that I didn't want them to, specifically with Final Fantasy XIII. I wasn't particularly happy with it. But after leaving the company, and with time, I have come to accept that I was the one who left, so they were free to do what they wanted with it. And recently I have been looking at Final Fantasy XV, and although I've never known or worked with Tabata-san, by looking at his production I feel that he has adopted the spirit that I had when I first created the series. I feel that, in the hands of talented people, the original feel of the series is being brought back."
Har du hunnit ge dig i kast med Final Fantasy XV ännu och tycker du det känns som "äkta" Final Fantasy?
