Hello everyone! Are you enjoying the Japanese release of Birth by Sleep? (Or trying to avoid spoilers like I am?) To celebrate the release of his new game, director Tetsuya Nomura wrote a blog post on the official Kingdom Hearts blog, "Message from the KINGDOM". Here is my translated version of that post:
Creator Message (Tetsuya Nomura)
Hello, I'm Nomura. Did you have fun on New Years? I was filling out papers, I ate and slept. And suddenly it was the New Year. The sunrise on the first day of the year was beautiful.
Well, there was this and that and now it's the release date. Thank you to all the fans who have been waiting for this day. Congratulations to all the PR staff, and the KH staff in Osaka who are currently on break.
We've really made a fun game. I think there are a lot of people playing it right now, but I hope you play through it slowly and enjoy it. I thnk the battle system is extremely fun, but what do the rest of you think? Since there are many other parts of the game you can have fun with, I hope you'll spend a long time playing it. Also, even if you finish it quickly it doesn't mean you'll have the true answer.
I was interviewed yesterday, and I talked a lot to all the reporters about Birth by Sleep. "What was the meaning of that place?" "What was the meaning behind that line that was said?" they asked. It won't be published in any magazine, but I answered as many things as I could. I explained quite a few different things that I had been plotting. So don't ignore even the smallest thing in the game. There is a lot of underplot behind the words characters say and the actions they take.
By the way, "coded", released on mobile
Well then, please continue to have fun. Oh also, if you don't watch all of the story that happens before the secret movie, and just watch only the secret movie, you won't understand any of it. So please get there on your own.
Until the next time
Director
Tetsuya Nomura
