In an exclusive interview, Hironobu Sakaguchi reflects on four decades making iconic video games from 'Final Fantasy' to 'Fantasian' and predicts where the industry is headed next.
FANTASIAN is a wonderful game and I’m so pleased more people are going to be able to get to enjoy it. It’s taken far too long for it to arrive on consoles but it’s better late than never.
Sakaguchi’s love for FFXIV is undeniable though, he spent a long time discussing and sharing his progress and enjoyment on Twitter (he may still do, but I’m not there anymore). So for him to say he would prefer to stay a fan, than ruin his experience, is as much as I’d expect. Though, in a way it is a little sad, because I’m sure FFXIV players would be ecstatic to see his involvement.
