Final Fantasy 7 Revelation Director Discusses Streamers' Potential Impact on RPG Popularity

Naoki Hamaguchi, director of the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Revelation, suggests that game streamers may be contributing to a 'crisis' in the role-playing game (RPG) genre. In an interview, Hamaguchi theorized that narrative-heavy games, common in the RPG genre, might allow viewers to feel satisfied by watching streams without purchasing or playing the game themselves. He emphasizes that this presents an opportunity for developers to create titles with increased player input, decision-making, and varied outcomes to encourage direct engagement.
