Goodbye Tanaka ;_;

[Tsukino]

The disrespect Tanaka gets here for one bad game that was rushed after working on tons of amazing games prior to that is utterly ridiculous.

Yeah, but I was expecting it,.

I've loved Tanaka and his ideas and designs ever since I played FFIII for the NES, he is the one that created the job system as we know it for Final fantasy games and one of the four main developers to create this franchise we all like so much along with Sakaguchi, Uematsu and Ito.

Even if XIV was incomplete at launch, I think any FF fan should always respect him.

And I'll always miss him on every square game, same as I miss Sakaguchi and Matsuno.

I respect Tanaka for his other games, but dont ask me to respect his work on FFXIV.

You cure cancer then get caught humping an animal, people will still only remember you for humping that animal. Bad images far outlast any good ones sadly, human nature.

It only takes one wrong move for someone to completely destroy their legacy. Video games are no different. In this case, the guy made two bad games.

And yet we blast game companies for one bad game after a bunch of good ones. Gamers are fickle I guess.

It's not SE that gets the blame in this case though. Even when most of it is because of the upper management.

On your edit!

I heard Yoshida followed the road-map that was already made by the previous team. Can't remember where I heard that though. But is it true?

FFXI was never hard. Fact. I you were willing to level another job and gear/use that for content it made it very easy.

All those things I considered being part of making something difficult.
