It's 52 minutes long. I've watched it too but if you want the points to be expressed, you should probably summarize it.

Yeah you right, I just woke up so my brain scrambled. My bad.

For more detail go to 41 minutes into said video.

Basically:

• Nomura wanted darker and edgelord-ified Final Fantasy for "Versus 13"
• Communications went dark over the course of 7 years, over which he was still ostensibly the director
• Tabata came in after the rebrand to 15 was announced and was met with a staff at the end of its rope, overworked and constantly having to redo what they'd already done
• Nomura, in classic Nomura fashion, couldn't decide on his own story, changing it significantly a few times each year, at one point demanding to turn 15 into a musical after he saw Les Miserables.
• Nomura got to fuck off to KH3 later and leave Tabata with a steaming pile of shit -- and as the public face for the game doomed to mediocrity as a result.

Seriously, Nomura is a blight on the damn company, and Tabata couldn't pull off the miracle Yoshida did.
