Latest Interview with Nomura

Compliments of my japanese reading friend. I, frankly, have no idea what the hell the moonrunes mean.

quote

The Quality of the game has been upgraded so much there's no difference between Real-Time and CG graphics.

quote

Some areas will be very depressing

quote

They will be able to unveil more information to the public sooner then they expected. (He doesn't want to give out the info to what will be reveal)

quote

Expect a lot of new Agito and Versus XIII Info early in 2010

quote

Nomura is also directing another "New" Game which will be unveiled this year! (Rather it's KH Related or not is unknown but he did say New)

EDIT: According to /v/... airships are back, along with towns (LOOKING AT YOU FFXIII) Kingdom Hearts Based battle system (as we all know) aaaaaand... Day and Night Transitions!

I'd rather they forget about this game for a while. I don't want to see anything about this game till at least the latter half of next year... the reason being I'll be spending all my time till March playing Demons Souls + Cross Edge. Come March it will be FFXIII till the latter half if not more, and then White Knight Chronicles. Information and release of this game would mean there are more games out that I want to play than possibly have time for....

I am with Red 9, I am tired of Nomura telling us to wait, we have waited much too long for the little information we do have (very little). I want to see a BRAND NEW trailer Early early 2010.

The NEW title will probably be KH related considering 358/2days is done and BBS will be release soon I believe...

quote Red 9

Let's be real here; they've hyped us up to some degree for some pretty trivial bullsh*t; like a new trailer that's nigh identical to the last, save for a few extra clips, or maybe a brief conversational scene between two characters. In fact, that's about all we know, aside from the fact they showed a behind-closed-doors conceptual gameplay video that no one got to see.

Sounds pretty accurate to me. That's exactly why I don't bother looking into Versus XIII anymore. When the game comes out, I'll be buying it on release date, I already made my mind up about that. What I don't want to be doing, is reading tidbits of info that really don't tell me anything about the game, seems pretty pointless.

quote Red 9

Either show us something meaningful or just shut the hell up for a while.

It seems like details regarding the direction of Versus is being treated like a poker game, the information being the hand. It's either a bluff, or they really do have something amazing in store. Best thing to do is just be patient, and eventually there will be something meaningful available to us.

Well Nomura promised some debut gameplay videos at the next gameshow (whether he referred to a Japanese gameshow or just gameshows in general I can't recall), so here's hoping.
