Square-Enix Luminous Engine Technical Director Yoshihisa Hashimoto Leaves Square Enix

...

 

I wouldn' t read too much into it without further explanations. I mean he hasn' t had that job for long, Julien Merceron was squenix' s previous technical director up until October 2013. He left to work with Konami on their Fox engine (you can see his name in the latest MGS5 trailer). It' s common practice in this business, people come and go. The Luminous engine was already complete back when Merceron left so I wouldn' t expect this to put much of a strain on any game development, if any strain at all.

 

Oh jeez. First thing that came to mind was me worrying about the effect this may have on KHIII and XV, but if the engines are already complete and currently in-use by Squeenix, surely it wouldn't cause major problems...right? :X
