Shuhei Yoshida Gives a Quick Last Guardian Update
http://www.1up.com/news/shuhei-yoshida-last-guardian-update“The project has been making progress, but slow progress,” said Yoshida, “but we haven’t changed any focus.”
“It’s still a really important project and a vision we want to see realised, and Fumito’s vision is really causing a very difficult challenge for the developers, so there’s some scrapping and rebuilding – iteration in the process.”
“That’s why [it's taking so long].”
“He was an employee, and now he’s working on a contract basis,” said Yoshida of Ueda. ”You know, we discussed an arrangement so he could focus on the creative side. He comes in every day, and he’s probably one of the people who works the longest hours.”
“There have been technical issues and the engineering team is reworking it,” he said, concluding. “It’s playable, but not to the level of when we can say it’s coming. ”
