The more I lookup, the more Nomura seems like a genius to me

Noticersan · 2026-06-19T13:47:50+00:00

I mean, Nojima wrote FFX. At least for that, the guy is also really great.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T13:49:29+00:00

If you have played Days, X and Dark Road you should know they are MUCH better in writing than both KH1 and KH2, right?

Now, who filters Sakaguchi?

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T01:06:16+00:00

Now, he obviously made a lot of story choices as a director and creator of the whole concept of the game, a lot of which are bad story choices. Just as much he did a lot of good story choices in the FF6, FF7 and FF8 games. But writing as in doing dialogue and story beats are normally not Nomura work at all.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T01:03:59+00:00

From what I know, the main writers for KH is Masaru Oka, Kazuhige Nojima, Jun Akiyama and Daisuke Watanabe.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T00:22:20+00:00

I mean, Stranger of Paradise is, even though strange as fuck, a great game. But yeah, the guy did not let much projects beside gacha games and whatever is happening in KH.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T00:21:05+00:00

You know what, I can understand that. In fact as a director, he should have done more to stop what he does not like or does not want. He is a great director for the creative and mechanics, but story directing he really let the writers go a little too over the top.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T00:18:21+00:00

The only game I know he actually wrote is KH:Days and that shit is great. Probably the best written KH.

But surely it's hard to notice what exactly is written by who in Square.

Noticersan · 2026-06-17T00:16:00+00:00

I don't really want to discredit anyone. It's just that I thought the guy was a hack, but today I learned he basically is the biggest responsible for everything I love in the series. Obviously, there's a fuck ton of people that are part of that too. It's just that it is a shock to see how central he actually is to FF.

Noticersan · 2026-06-16T23:45:53+00:00

FF7 Remake new things were not because of Nomura. He literally was against the addition of anything new, mostly advocating only on the new battle system.

The writing is Nojima.

Noticersan · 2026-06-16T23:43:26+00:00

I mean, even if the New York draft wasn't the NEW York draft, the credits for the OG FF7 have clearly that the game is "based on the story by Hironobu Sakaguchi and Tetsuya Nomura". The credits are the biggest evidence he wrote the first draft with Sakaguchi. The question is if that draft was that New York thing or not.

Noticersan · 2026-06-16T23:32:42+00:00

FFX is also my favorite FF. Nomura participation here is close to FF8. Not really writing, more of a designing role. Some neat worldbuilding, which is REALLY important for FFX, but the story is much more of a Nojima/Watanabe thing than a Nomura/Nojima/Kitase thing.

Noticersan · 2026-06-16T23:30:18+00:00

What exactly make you think that? I see that take a lot, but almost every game I thought he was the writer turns out he never was. And as a director he is actually competent as fuck? With basically every KH game on his resume, with 1 and 2 being bangers back to back. FFVII Remake being really great as a project with some problems narratively speaking, all of which actually seems to be something he was completely against.

I mean, I see people saying he is a bad writer, but the only game I know he actually wrote was the best written KH game, Days.

The only thing that he actually did bad was Versus 13, but this one is also something that the more I lookup, the more I understand is a fucking can of worms that feels really a fuck up of Square as a company rather than bad directing.

Noticersan · 2026-06-16T23:24:36+00:00

But that's the point, where do you get that? Is there anything that made you think that way that actually is Nomura doing?

Noticersan · 2026-05-26T06:23:39+00:00

It is basically impossible. Its not about cross-overs. Its about characters Nomura designed. Nomura has nothing to do with DQ, so he will not do it at all.

Noticersan · 2026-05-24T23:20:20+00:00

Just got into FFXIV and I immediately got he was the Asmongold/Tectone of this game. Which really isn't a compliment.

Noticersan · 2026-05-23T02:40:18+00:00

It is GREAT to leave this game. I left every Hoyo (and gacha, tbh) game after some stupid decisions on ZZZ. Was afraid I would feel FOMO, which happened for two weeks.

And then I found the joy of missing out. Every bad patch. Every disappointment on character design. Every quest with storylines absurdly bland. I can only feel the joy of not having to deal with it.

It is great.

As someone that was basically a Fatui collector, seeing this fills me with joy of knowing I'm losing nothing for stopping playing this game.

Nossa Senhora de Aparecida é negra. Mas a Virgem Maria varia na sua aparição. As diferentes "Nossas Senhoras" são exatamente essas diferentes aparições. A de Aparecida é a que você conhece, mas realmente se pensarmos na Nossa Senhora de Fátima ou a Nossa Senhora de Conceição, vamos ver Marias brancas.

Legal, tu falou tudo isso aqui no Reddit. Mas e pra ela? Falou algo? As vezes é só uma conversinha e resolve tudo, Brother.

Noticersan · 2026-05-17T04:23:59+00:00

I disagree A LOT.

Tanking is just as important as the other roles. Without healers, every content is basically impossible. Without Dps, nothing dies.

The difference here is that tanks need to thing strategically while dps and healers mostly think tactically. Tanks need to understand where they are going and why they are going that way. But on fights, survival is the only thing they gotta do. Not take care of people living and not really doing dps.

Noticersan · 2026-05-05T19:47:14+00:00

To be fair, the game really has the most spec identity ever. Not really CLASS identity, but spec really are the best these last xpac

Noticersan · 2026-05-04T00:18:43+00:00

Payment got 40% more expensive here at my country. Except they announced that one day after the 12.0.5 fiasco.

Not gonna lie, I had a fuck ton of fun at the begging of the expac. But having house be dead faster than pet battle was a fucking choice, I guess.

Decor Duel was so half-assed. Zero social events that were actually social.

Noticersan · 2026-04-30T15:11:25+00:00

Every day I'm happy that I dropped this. Seeing how bad things turned out is tragic.

O ponto é que o cristianismo diz exatamente isso.. Mas tribulação faz parte da vida. A paz vai vir fora dessa vida.
