Whether refering to the battle system, something in the overworld, or something else entirely, former Final Fantasy producer Hironobu Sakaguchi has said some interesting things on his company blog. Most noteably, "…I want you to understand how difficult it is to finish the last fixes and it is time consuming in RPG creation. There is an unknown territory for me because of the real time system exists in it. But I believe that the hurdle will invent something new."

It has been 10 years since Xenoblade arrived in the US, we look back at how the game almost never showed up if not for a group of dedicated fans.
I wish The Last Story would make a comeback.I played it years before I got around to Xenoblade. Mainly because of the scalping going on because of Xeno's limited run. It took me a few tries to get into it but once I did I couldn't put it down. A Wii hidden gem for sure.
As much as I love Xenoblade, Last Story was the better game IMO. I wish Nintendo would remaster or simply port the game onto the Switch.
I wish the Last Story get a Switch remaster or remake. That game deserves a second chance
These JRPGs stand up on their own.
For the Wii’s 15th birthday, here’s a list of 15 Wii games that deserve ports or sequels.
Hironobu Sakaguchi how about stop wasting time making wii games and make a xbox360 game how long has it been since Lost Odyssey.......GOD is it to much to ask get a f*ckin move on.
They just changed the words of final fantasy using a thesaurus and it still means the exact same thing, nice.
though does he mean real time like it utilities the systems clock or that battles will be in the world without random battles... i'm guess in the latter.
Real-time play and open world RGP's, will go a long way to put JRPG's back in favor in the west. They don't need to re-invent the wheel, they just need to put some tire on so the ride is more comfortable.
Come on man, I want Lost Odyssey 2, come ooooooon man.
