only 1 year too early? So now after a year it's a finished product? Assuming someone brings up Tanaka again, do you honestly think things would've been any better he he had another year to develop things? He was the most hard headed dev out there, he has never listened to player concerns. And sadly, unless there's a huge push for an all raid game with no hard core content at all over on the JP forums, then yoshi is following the same path.
