Now that it's been a month later, I think I know the reason why; I hear that staff from Xenogears worked on World Destruction. Did they share a character designer too?
They wanted to be the makers of the next RPG equivalent to the Final Fantasy series, but it was not to be. First they were forced to compress 5 games into one for Xenogears, have a 6-game-series chopped into 3 for Xenosaga, and now they're being contracted out to do a DS game?
Talk about how "it's not the quality that matters, it's how many people you convince to buy it."
Question is which part; the part that left monosoft or the part that stuck around? since one of the things that shortened the XS series was A) Ep 2 due to how bad it was B) How some of the team left, and C) the fact it couldn't beat FF.
FF is not beatable in a head on fight... SE has way more resources to toss at game's graphics than Namco's willing to part with.
Most smart companies go the nichier route and try to appeal to other gamers. Trying to compete with FF in the ultra mega blockbuster RPG with great graphics never ends well.
