Im Defending Nomura.

[FFFFsephychibi]

So I really like KH, and I've been excited about ff15 since it got announced back in 2006, I've put a lot of my excitement behind Nomura as his concept of merging disney with ff was a left field idea that ended up working pretty well. I easily became a fan of any game he had part in.

Still having positive feelings about Nomura, these articles kind of make me sick to my stomach.

I have nothing against Tabata and I'm glad he took on the project. But these two articles make Nomura look bad

People are already saying "wow what was nomura doing these past 8 years" and immediately reacting negatively toward Nomura. I'm very saddened by these statements. If you go an reference his wikipedia page you can see the multiple projects he was working on during those 8 years on top of ff15, and the ff13 games, the kh games etc etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetsuya_Nomura

People need to cut him some slack.. I feel like he's being falsely accused in reactions for screwing up the development whens he's clearly a hard worker who got spread way too thinly...........

These articles also mention how the game is 50-60% done, and that completion is from tabata and his team in the past 2 years. Which is once again wonderful, but I have this gut feeling that ff15 is no longer the versus 13 game I fell in love with back in 2006. I feel like I'm really not going to be getting the game I had hoped for, feeling pretty bummed out.

I have nothing but respect for Nomura, and I will support him, because he works his ass off and doesn't deserve ridicule from something he could not control and did the best he could on with the time he had. I cannot imagine how much pressure there was for him doing multiple roles on 5 games at a time on top of being a director. He's the warrior of video game devs.

Does anyone feel the same way here or similarly? Curious to also hear opposing thoughts.
