...Which has absolutely nothing to do with the developers that are there now. Do you think all of the same developers that were there in the 80s and 90s are the ones still developing the games now or something?
Anyway, thanks again for the translations, Reinheart!![]()
Not going to go too far on this on this thread since it's for translation purpose (start a new one if you want to go all in on this lol) but from my personal experience from trying to get inside Square-Enix (for 8 years) they wont hire you if you think you want to make Final Fantasy; also if you look at SE's (dunno English side but Japanese) for programmers, engineers all the positions are contract workers; it's not permanent position... Now with current economy situation, those with family, need to pay the bills... contract workers isn't really going to work. You will most likely not see that much great guys working for contract, unless they get changed to permanent position later.
Also they got a awesome person (CEO from what I remember) stating in a old JP gaming magazine interview (forgot online or actual magazine, probably online) but they said to lower cost they don't use QA/actual testers and make the players become the tester. I clearly remember that statement because it pissed me off so much. Now since YoshiP said QA in his post, most likely they realized testers are actually required for online games also, look at release of this game, if they had QA and that was the product that was approved by the QA something was definitely wrong with QA; My guess is there was none during FFXIV alpha, beta, open beta and on original release date, after the big hit from player feedback and stock market dropping they probably realized they have to fix it to keep their brand name title Final Fantasy.
