Scenario writer for Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, Kazushige Nojima, says that he felt "despair" as the video game industry began to push towards realistic designs, but that working on the Disney x Final Fantasy crossover "freed him" from this feeling.
Nojima is a veteran creator in the video game industry, who has worked as the scenario writer on some of the best games of all time, including Final Fantasy 7, 8, and 10. He recently took to Twitter to talk about his recollection of how the video game industry was changing after the release of these games.
