The director of Chrono Cross and Monolith Soft also made Baten Kaitos and Baten Kaitos Origins. Those poor games never get lovin'. :sad:

I will be very glad if this comes to fruition. Matsuno gets better with each title he makes. He's learning how to make games have depth but also more accessible. I feel like he has a masterpiece left in him. Some would argue that was Vagrant Story or XII, but for me they really weren't >_> But close to hitting the mark.

The only thing Matsuno isn't good in is characters. There are usually villains and NPCs (which become guests sometimes) that are much more interesting than those I control. If he's working on a new project, I hope he learns how to marry character with politics. Perhaps Monolith influence will accomplish that somehow.
