"A creative piece typically reflects the creators’ upbringing, living environment, educational environment, their sense of religion, etc., and takes shape by passing those elements through a filter—whether it be fantasy, science fiction, or anything else," he said. "As such, we try not to be particularly conscious of others, but instead concentrate on being ourselves; doing so adds that exceptional and unique individuality in the shape of the characters, the lore, the visual presentation, color palettes, etc. that makes this franchise so different from others (especially compared to Western titles)."

Are you interested in knowing Nomura's personal individuality? :wacky:

Y'know, Nomura has a lot of really good thoughts about storytelling and the creative process - it's a shame that he's essentially become a meme in so many corners of the internet and people won't take what he says on its own merits.

Hey, he did prevent everyone but 3 random characters from the OG from being killed (or rather, Cloud + 2 random characters). Kitase and Nojima were soooooooooooo set in killing off everyone lmao. My respect for him has been going upwards since I read that.

As Peter Jackson after The Hobbit... great visionaries can lose their sanity over time.

Hm.....kinda like Disney in KH and Square in Versus XIII?

Jokes aside, I dont think Nomura is that "bad". He has fallen into some recurrences of his and some questionable calls, but as Eerie said, he is also probably the origin and of reason of plenty of great calls. There is a lot of stuff that goes behind the scenes unseen. A lot of executive, financial stuff too.

And a lot of amazing developers fall into that. Yoko Taro, Kojima, Myamoto. You can find "dirt" in all of them pretty much. More likely than not, their eccentricities are the reason of both their acclaimed and despised creations.

New interview with Erica Lindbeck (Jessie's VA):
https://www.starburstmagazine.com/features/erica-lindbeck-final-fantasy-vii-remake

Quote from Erica:
"I could’ve never imagined as well how much people were going to love Jessie! I mean, you’ve already got Tifa and Aerith as the two big female characters and then for Jessie to come along and steal the spotlight if you will is amazing to see."

I'd say Tifa's VA did the best, but Jessie's was def not far behind

They're both good, but visually, Jessie practically jumps off the screen what with how bright and colorful she usually is. By contrast, they made Tifa pretty much a wallflower. Her outfit being mainly black and white doesn't help that, either. She blends in a lot and doesn't often stand out. Aerith is kind of in between the two, from what I've seen.

I actually like that she doesn't stick out like Jessie does. Besides, red, black and white is my favorite color combo:)
