Despite S5's polish, it's not surprising that original creators weren't involved. It just lacked some of the emotionally-gripping characters that S1-3 all had, which is the only reason I still enjoy S2 more. But S5 certainly had a very strong overplot, great gameplay mechanics, a radically revamped and in-depth major battle system, and a rich and massive world. I don't think I've ever played another RPG with a traditional world map that felt so vast.

Yes, this means he spends more time doing that then actually playing games.
This is a pretty accurate statement. I'm fascinated by the production side of things, and I couldn't tell you how I probably do know more about some games and movies I've only seen maybe once that a fan probably wouldn't know.

As for SII Vs SV, I can't say for now. My memory of SV is a bit foggy as I only ever played it once and I only remember really enjoying the game so I can't make too many comments on that. I do remember the game being really long though, like finally reaching the point of recruiting characters and being nearly 20 hours in, kind of long.
