Ein Zitat von Kitase aus einem Interview bezüglich eines FF7-Remakes:
Zitat Zitat
If it were possible that we had all the right facilities and the right environment to be able to make and prepare a Final Fantasy VII remake within a year, we'd very much like a go at it! But even Final Fantasy XIII has taken over three and a half years to create. If we were to recreate Final Fantasy VII with the same level of graphical detail as you see in Final Fantasy XIII, we'd imagine that that would take as much as three or four times longer than the three and a half years it has taken to put this Final Fantasy together!
Für mich heißt das im Prinzip, dass man sich damals mehr auf den Inhalt und die Tiefe eines Spiels konzentrieren konnte, wohingegen heute die meiste Zeit für die visuelle Präsentation flöten geht.
Schon irgendwo ein Armutszeugnis.
