Final Fantasy XIV director Nobuaki Komoto has expressed his concern that, while the two developers make excellent games, BioWare and Bethesda’s games are “virtually unknown” in Japan.
“Although I do think both developers are creating great games, unfortunately, both [BioWare and Bethesda] are so far virtually unknown to the mass public in Japan and the sales are quite disastrous, too,” Komoto told NowGamer during Gamescom. “They only seem to cater for a handful of core gamers.”
BioWare has shared their opinion on Square Enix‘s games in the past, as well – albeit, not as friendly as Komoto did today.
