Tell just what exactly is so bad about Tetsuya Nomura. I'm curious. I've heard people say all of his art looks the same, but then I look at someone like Akira Toriyama's art and realize that Nomura really isn't that bad in terms of that.

I just find it interesting that people focus so much hatred on one artist.

*shrug* Well, nothing wrong with hating the Compilation I suppose. But I don't really think Nomura's the bad guy here. And I wish people would stop treating him like one.

Re: 29

Yeah, Toriyama's art looks the same due to his style, nobody's disputing that.

I just really, really don't like Nomura's latest designs.

Re: 29

Yeah uh, Akira Toriyama isn't really a point of comparison because he's just as crap as Nomura. It's like saying this fart is smelly, but not as smelly as that one so what's the problem?

Besides, we're not just talking about his art. Sakaguchi headed the original Final Fantasy VII project, and Nomura completely took over with a couple other original game lackeys for Compilation, and thus Comp is completely deviated in atmosphere, plot direction, art direction etc from the original game, and these deviations? Fucking retarded.

I could give two shits about his mediocre art.

As for character designs, they should just bring Yoshitaka Amano back.

Re: 29

[kinneas.livejournal.com]

I'm not even a big Amano fan, but at least his shit varies and no one's covered in belts.

Also in Amano art, either everyone has muscles fitting their strength or NO ONE DOES. None of this stick arm!Tifa horseshit.

Re: 29

Oh don't even start that "bring Yoshitaka Amano back" crap. I think it's fine to dislike Tetsuya Nomura, as everyone has different tastes in art, but please don't try and tell me that Amano was better.

I'm not saying that Amano's art is bad. It's incredibly beautiful in unique.

But applying Amano's style to 3D character designs just does NOT work. That's one of the reasons they changed character designers for FF7 in the first place. It's too difficult to make 3D models from Amano's art. Even FF4 DS has another artist doing redesigns of the characters (while keeping as close to Amano's style as possible).

Amano was better. XD

Re: 29

Thanks for completely ignoring my argument, dumbass.

Re: 29

[kasumi-blue.livejournal.com]

Well, Sakaguchi left the company. Someone had to take over for the compilations.

What source told you that Nomura completely heads ALL Compilation projects?

Re: 29

[kinneas.livejournal.com]

A simple Wiki shows that he with help from Kitase heads the entirety of the project as a whole.

I don't see how the necessity of someone else in Sakaguchi's absence makes Nomura not suck. You asked why people hate him, and I answered.
