I understand and to an extent hold similar feelings as Rowan. Ten years and only a demo - terrible. And this has been the M.O. of FF for some releases.

At the same time, Andro's words do have weight. This is easily a better job done then FFXIII, where it was player tested by western audiences, gave their input, and the dev team/Toriyama was like "Too bad, it is too late to input any changes". Then what was the point?

If I am not mistaken, Tabata said that the demo was around 60% of the "finished" game, but in actuality the game was around 80%. As I said, releasing an updated version of the demo is a great move by the dev team - real smart. The fan-base gets to see a more finished version of the game and the updates to the game since the demo. Of course, some of this stuff should have been implemented from the beginning, in a common sense kind of way. But, I am just happy that this new director is doing more and keeping us included than Nomura ever did.
