Yasunori Mitsuda was also kicked out as composer, and Yuki Kajiura was brought in. That one admittedly wasn't so bad. ^_^

The rest was apparently a mixture of their original story and the vision of the new director. ^_^ To be honest, though, the story felt pretty consistent to me throughout, and I don't think it suffered so much from the new director as from poor sales causing it to be cut from six games to three, and thus the necessity to summarise like...everything. ^^;;;

...

So let's blame people for not buying the first game? :wacko:

No, let's blame them for not making the game good enough so that more people would actually buy it. :P

But we already have Culise~ ^_^

Besides, memorising the names of those involved in the creation of Japanese RPGs is not high brow. It's just a couple of notches above memorising the history of your favourite wrestler.

You know, I actually thought when I was typing this, "I know that this sounds like douche, but Ray isn't here, so I think it's probably okay."

In hindsight, I really should've known better. ^_^

One against an army. In a situation like that, backup never hurt.

Sadly enough, I've done just that.

You seem to forget that Culise is an army. If I may draw a very high-brow RPG-related analogy, you know that scene in Kingdom Hearts 2 where Sora stands in a canyon filled with thousands upon thousands of low-level enemies? And all you really have to do is keep bashing triangle and X and watch the fireworks? Yeah.

Well to be fair, I still know almost all of the script to the first CD of Final Fantasy VII. I'm in no position to judge. ^_^

That's FF7. If I was talking about the WWE or such, it'd be the same.

I can trace the lineage of certain indy titles. It's more akin being able to quote Megami Tensei dialogue.

How long are you going to keep up this tiresome act? I'll make you remember! If these guys don't eat you, come to the Sky Museum!

Okay, so it's Persona. And it's a fairly generic quote that only stuck in my head because I like Tatsuya Sudou's voice actor. Not quite the same. ^_^

No, he didn't want it to end that soon.

Problem was, it took so long to get him up there that he forgot some important details. Like the code for "I've had enough now. Please let me down".

Everyone knew he was hardcore after that whole 40 days in the desert thing. They thought he was just really into it.

It feels as though all threads suck, but it's not a reason to close them, which only ends up cutting down on the activity. :P
