Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami believes devs need to "make games that leave people wanting to clear them with their own hands" rather than being content watching a playthrough
Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami believes that games should be designed to encourage players to complete them themselves, rather than being satisfied by simply watching a playthrough. He argues that if watching is enough, the game wasn't compelling enough. This sentiment was echoed by Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii and Final Fantasy 7 Remake director Naoki Hamaguchi, who also expressed concerns about player agency in modern RPGs.
