SO4 is not even close to being the worst.

Bad voice acting

Look, when we say bad voice acting, we talk about people actually trying, okay? This doesn't qualify as voice acting. This is reading lines into a ghetto laptop mic while drunk at 4AM. Just like scenario-porn doesn't count as acting.

Edit: Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZ8XsighMFU&feature=related. If we're talking relatively, compared to Chaos Wars, this is Oscar-worthy. But truth is this is pretty damn fucking bad too.

j/k. sort of. I like FFVIII way more than VII, in fact it's probably my favorite. but I do think Balamb Garden is the coolest looking FF design ever.

Probably.

They are overtaxing him. They riding too much on his name being recognizable. Give the guy a break after VS

Can't blame him when the whole world is waiting for games he's working on with incredibly high expectations. Poor him...

Hey, you got your original nick back! Nice.

Is there anymore art like this? Do you know the name of the artist?

Also shouldnt it be Altima?
 
Himuro said:
Agreed.

He's been on a constant roll. Kindgom Hearts II, The World Ends With You, FFXIII, FFvsXIII, what else?

In production?

FFXIII
FFVersusXIII
FFAgitoXIII
Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
Kingdom Hearts Coded (I think he has something to do with this, I don't know)

And most likely a few things in the works at SE that haven't been announced yet.

You guys, it's probably a bad photo. You're speculating on his health like he's Steve Jobs. Does anyone really think Nomura is in his office burning the midnight oil every night? I'd believe it if Versus was in crunch mode but it's probably in "so we should start making it huh" mode.

And Dissidia II. He really wanted to put Kain in the first one, after all.

Which doesnt make much sense, since Cecil is definitely the main. I kind hope games like Tactics, XI, XII, X-2 and Crisis Core get their due before multiple character from the original games represented get in

From the Dissidia Ultimania:

Dissidia Ultimania said:
– Like how you took Kuja rather than Necron from FFIX, the characters of the Chaos side were not limited to those game’s final bosses, were they?

Nomura: If we stick exactly to final bosses, we’d get characters such as FFX’s Yu Yevon. Characters who it would be difficult to give much personality to, or whose design doesn’t fit in with a fighting game. So I thought that it would be better to take characters with a rivalry, or with strong connections. Also, I personally really wanted to have Kain in the game. Originally we planned to have about 5 hidden characters, and even as that number started to shrink, Kain remained a candidate right to the end. When it was finally decided to cut him I said, “for FFIV’s Chaos character wouldn’t Kain and not Golbez be fine?” But we had to think of the balance with the other titles, and he was cut.

[...]

– But you do have some concrete ideas you’re working around in your mind, right?

Nomura: Well, if we did a sequel I think Kain is definitely in (laughs). I’ve got a lot of interesting ideas, but as far as the situation goes actually going ahead with the project would be tricky… If there were enough demand for a Dissidia II, the situation might change, so I think I’d like to rethink it at that time.

Naw. Either he's decreased the amount of make up he wears compared to the past, but almost all of his recent photos I've seen he's been tired as shit in or he's gained a fair amount of weight.

You have to consider that for quite a few of those he's just been the character artist. Like a voice actor who does 200 shows in 10 years isn't doing the same work load as directing 200 projects.

Nomura definitely does a lot of work but you can't just count the number of games he's worked and directly correlate that to how much he does.

He is just putting on weight because he probably has zero time to do anything other than sit at his desk working.

Once the FFXIII games are out he can probably start sleeping in his home again and not at the office, and even start exercising again. Or something.
 
Don't know if this was mentioned, but at the end of the FFVIIACC premiere, they showed an extended trailer for FFXIII similar to the Jump Festa one. Ended with 'Coming in 2009' so...

I figure they'd at least wait for DQIX to release first before they possibly announce/plan any delays for their next huge project. :P
 
I just rewatched AC and I am reading a playthrough of DoC as I type...and what the fuck have they done? FFVII always erred on the side of dumb plot before but this shit is a wholesale rapping of the original game. And DoC has some of the stupid character designs I've ever seen. Noruma hate reactivated...

Seriously, what the shit!? Real, living sentient beings somehow thought this shit was good enough for other sentient beings to consume!

You cant shut down your mind enough for this to seem decent...
 
Kyoufu said:
AC is awesome though.

HK-47 you just hate everything, admit it.
Click to expand...

I dont know why I torture myself so...but my curiosity got the better of me.

To be fair its more DoC than AC, but still is still pretty fucking terrible every time people arent beating the shit of each other.

And you know I dont hate everything. I'm more critical then hateful when the talk isnt FFVIII or Bethesada RPGs

Imagine FFXIII came out before DQIX 3;
 
You've already blown my mind once today with your reading a playthrough of DoC.

If you blow it again, it will be blown away back to where it was previously blown from -- IGN.com

I read playthroughs and LPs all the time. I knew DoC was horrible and thought it would be funny to see why.

I was wrong.
