Legendary Director Tetsuya Nomura Inpressed many at E3 with Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III, but what games impressed Tetsuya Nomura himself? Quite a few, as he said during an interview for the Japanese gaming site Dengeki Online. Interestingly, none of the titles he mentioned was a RPG.
Tetsuya Nomura was impressed with MGSV. Hideo Kojima was very impressed by the The Last of Us. Therefore, in correlation to all things awesome, Tetsuya Nomura was impressed by The Last of Us, bringing more evidence that everyone and their great grandmama loves The Last of Us.
Off topic aside... Wow, that last comment he made was depressing. It's impressive that it was made a Japanese developer? What the bloody heck does that mean? That even Japanese developers don't believe in themselves anymore? This coming from Square, one of the best developers since the SNES until 7th gen. Japanese developers used to create some of the best games ever.
