Are there any new games you’d like to make?

Yoshi-P works both as a producer and director, but he would like to quit being a producer as soon as possible.


If anyone could take his position as a producer, he would quit in a heartbeat.


Having two positions doesn’t mean you get double the salary.


One issue is that there isn’t anyone who would say “hey, I’ll be the producer, so you can switch out, Yoshida.” He also says that he has more motivation for Final Fantasy XIV than anyone else.


Forcing himself to work is what he considers a discourtesy to the players. He believes that since he’s the most motivated of all, he must work as the producer for now.


There are many games that switch out producers and directors for each new expansion pack, but Yoshi-P says that there’s still much more he’d like to do with Final Fantasy XIV.


And until he does everything he wants to do for Final Fantasy XIV, his motivation for it isn’t going anywhere.


Of course there are players that say “Yoshida should just quit already” [laughs].
