Toriyama has been a trusted senior member of Square Enix for many years, and has been in planning roles since Bahamut Lagoon and the original FFVII. Suggesting he's some kind of crazy person based on half-remembered comments seems kind of weird to me. Describing him as the guy who 'ruined' FFXIII is also weird: he was director on XIII from day one, and worked alongside Nojima Kazushige during the earliest concepting phases. He's not someone who came in later, or whatever.
That's why I said "Ruined FFXIII" and not "Ruined the FFXIII series". Perhaps that was a bit unclear; what I meant to say is, he ruined it from minute one. Or SOMEONE did anyway, and his weird behavior seems to suggest he probably had a hand in it. But this isn't the FFXIII thread.
