Yoshida said in an interview with PCGamesN, “If there hadn’t been a world of cans – whom we consider a great “teacher” and deeply respect – the brilliant rehab of Final Fantasy 14 was not possible. The original FFXIV was an unprecedented failure and I was given the duty to save the project. When you control a failed project and have to raise it, I don’t think you have a way to create the kind of game you want to create in your head. But I was playing World of Warcraft and used this game as a subject for study.”

He went on to explain, “I explained what I learned to the different teams and we all used that knowledge in development. We didn’t have the luxury of putting in what we liked or didn’t like. What I really wanted from the game to make it more MMORPG based. Date. From this point of view, Final Fantasy 11 has been a huge influence, but given that it’s a game from the Final Fantasy saga, strong storytelling was of course a must. This decision was not about my personal taste, it was about the fact that it was a Final Fantasy game.”
