In terms of scope, and in terms of sheer number of characters, we went beyond our limits long ago.

In terms of scope, and in terms of sheer number of characters, we went beyond our limits long ago.

Providing accurate portrayals of characters is something I want to pay ample attention to. If I don’t stick to that thought, then we’d have to lower the quality or break the balance of the game. Something that goes way off spec could break the entire game.

The pain goes away, but your work always remains.

In terms of quantity, we've probably already reached the limit of what's feasible. I think a change of direction may be what's needed.

It's fun making new skills for new characters.

You can only truly wow a player the first time he sees [a cutscene]. I felt if players saw the cutscenes outside of the game, they would no longer serve as rewards for playing the game, so I've decided against having them.
