True. But back then, and even now for the most part, SE didn't give much about the opinions of its Western fans. And Woosley had zero impact on Square's Japanese fans. So they probably don't give too much of a lick about him these days in either case :/

It's kinda weird how these Japanese companies still only care about their Japanese fans. I realize the Japanese buy millions of their games. But you'd think American and European fans buying millions would matter more. But that's probably a discussion for another thread
