I was interviewing shane kim at Microsoft today, and finally learned the whereabouts of Panzer Dragoon series director (and the guy who was in charge of Saga) yukio futatsugi. I knew he was at Microsoft Game Studios Japan, but I didn't know what projects he was in charge of. Turns out he's working with sakaguchi on his current projects. Makes me wonder if I'm seeing a little futatsugi in the post apocalyptic landscapes of Lost Odyssey, but that could just be projection. Bit more of that interview here - the full interview is going up later. Kind of wish he were directing something on his own, but I suppose that'll come with time.
