  • Hideaki Itsuno has been involved in many titles such as “Street Fighter Alpha”. As Director his main works are the “Devil May Cry” and “Dragon’s Dogma” series. He is currently working on the lately announced sequel “Dragon’s Dogma 2”. We invited Itsuno-san to join us from Osaka and having lived through the same generation with Toyama-san, the two looked back to the days of creating games in the early PlayStation era.
    We also showed Itsuno-san our current progress on "Slitterhead" and he gave us his impression - which can be seen in the final parts of this video.
    Please hit the subscribe button so you don't miss out on our future videos! We will continue inviting guests in the Golden Hour series and many more videos to give updates on "Slitterhead". Thank you for your support.

    Listening to Itsuno-san and Toyama- san talk about their inspiration from mentors, challenges and ideas for upcoming projects. Gives me hope that that there's still developers out here with great understanding and respect for their players. This was great to watch, it takes me back to the early playstation era. At the same time I can't wait to see how Dragon's Dogma 2 and Slitterhead will turn out. I'm sure it will be something we will remember for centuries, just like their previous titles we grew up with and still love.

    Even though it's been a while since this interview was released, being able to see two Creative Directors, Game Designers and Artists of the caliber of Hideaki and Keiichiro talk together was exciting and beautiful.
    You are among my all time favorite Creative Directors and Japanese Game Designers, and I greatly appreciated all the Works that you have managed to build over the years within two very important Japanese SoftwareHouses, and among my absolute favorite Japanese SoftwareHouses, such as Capcom and Konami.
    Delighted to found Bokeh Game Studios as a new major SoftwareHouse in Japanese Survival Horror genre, and can't wait to play both Dragon's Dogma 2 and Slitterhead.

    Listening to these two talk instills so much confidence in me for both of their upcoming projects. It seems like they both have an intimate understanding of what it takes to make a game both a fun and unique experience. Itsuno-san's vague teaser about wanting to incorporate an "everyday phenomenon" into Dragon's Dogma 2 is very interesting! I'm excited to see what he is talking about.

    Oh man, what an awesome episode. I especially enjoyed the discussion about emotions and translating that into a game!
    The bungee jump comment from Itsuno-san was interesting because it makes me start to think back on experiences I've had. Like for instance, if comparing my experience with someone elses, was my enjoyment of a particular event due to the same causes? Like fishing, finally getting a bite and reeling in the fish might be my favorite part but for someone else the process of baiting the hook and waiting for a bite could be the most enjoyable for them.
    Slitterhead is sounding so cool! Can't wait to officially hear/see more!!

    My impression is that Slitterhead is going to be closer to something like Suda51's Shadows of the Damned, wacky gory action game with horror elements, rather than traditional survival horror experience. Either way, i'm really excited and hoping for more info at upcoming TGA.

    Mr. Toyama,
    You are right about seinen manga in the West. It is not popular yet, but there are still many successful works. There is an audience for contemporary works like "Made in Abyss" that reveres the circumstances of the material with extreme caution and attention. Every detail matters to the people who enjoy these works - and other designers like Mr. Yoko Taro have tapped into it to great praise. You should push ahead and pursue this type of design for games, it has incredible potential.

    One of my favorite games called XCOM has these tough choices with real consequences that could lead to a vital character dying & you have to go on, & this aspect of the game created a lot of tension & excitement with varied memorable scenarios systemically created, it's very unique! I think Slitter Head is aiming for something like that.
    By the way, I love your content, two of my favorite game designers just having a talk about the industry is always super interesting, hope your future games be the best they can be.

    I always loved it when devs talking casually to one another it shows that they are human as well as deep insights how development was like during those days. You have to admit the psx ports for the fighting games kinda stunk to be honest due to the psx hardware being on the weak side compared to the saturn which is the preferred choice for 2d fighters. How do I know because I played on some of those ports and they are not as good as the arcade version.

    I hate to criticize, but I think the music is a bit loud. I speak (tho am still learning) Japanese, so I wanna be able to listen without distractions. While their voices are audible, the music is loud enough and the tones are high enough that the music interferes with my listening. I have severe tinnitus, so headphones with high volumes is not doable.
    Otherwise, I love the interviews, and Itsuno is a creator I really admire, so an interview with him is amazing. Thank you for your hard work.
