Kingdom Hearts made assembling Final Fantasy 10's dev team "difficult" after Tetsuya Nomura and other JRPG veterans were assigned to the Disney crossover, lead says
Final Fantasy 10 producer Yoshinori Kitase revealed that assembling the development team for the game was challenging due to the concurrent development of Kingdom Hearts, which involved key staff like Tetsuya Nomura. Nomura, who was the director of Kingdom Hearts, also served as character designer for Final Fantasy 10, leading to divided attention and the need to bring in new talent or promote existing staff for core development roles.
