Tactics Ogre – 1995 Developer Interview
Added 2018-04-12 17:32:17 +0000 UTChttp://shmuplations.com/tacticsogre/
These two interviews for Tactics Ogre and Ogre Battle, respectively, cover the history of the developments and the reason for changes between both games. Today, with the “SRPG” being a well-established genre of its own, it’s easy to overlook how many innovations the Ogre Saga games pioneered, in both a gameplay and narrative sense.
In an interview with 4gamer from 2011 (that I will likely translate in the future for its additional Tactics Ogre content), the older Matsuno expressed a note of embarrassment about his youthful enthusiasm / impertinence during this time, which I think one can sense in the ambitions he declares here.

Can't wait to read through this, I'm a big Matsuno fan. I'd love to see the 4gamer interview, as well!
