I'm sorry, but he would have just continued barbaric systems perpetuating MMO masochism. Good riddance. Never missed him. FFXI is having a great time with him right now though.

Tanaka just stepped into Eorzea like a N64 Mario painting.

The only thing that keeps me going is the hope that I one day will find his proxy mob and just poop on it for 3 weeks straight until he drops "Heartfelt Apology" and "/Display Tail On" key items.

I get that, but he left a long time ago, so hence why I dont get.

And I do think it was Tanaka's fault, not that "the game was rushed out" because when you look at how it is now and then how many changes were removed.

Tanaka wanted Fatigue, Physical Level, and many more systems. I dont think the game would be half as good as it is now if it followed Tanaka's road, 2.0 wouldn't even exist and we wouldnt have the glimmer of hope we see known as "Coming in 2.0!".

I know the problem this post was made two years ago but it got stuck in the intertubes with some guys porn and just poped up now.

All I saw was.

Isn't this post a year too late?

I remember when he said this was going to be an MMORPG with no level progression. Gave us two things to level. - -;

Tanaka is a great producer, but I believe it was both him and his higher ups who dropped the bomb on this game. Even if he had all the time in the world, he would of still had these abysmal systems and had them running on outdated servers "and" would of been using an unstable engine. I don't think a difference would of been made if he released it in 2010 or today, it would of been the same overall.
