Daisuke Ishiwatari, Game Creator (Guilty Gear series) - toco toco

[@zhaoyun255]

The guy deserved respect like Kojima. He was among the most dedicated and passionate about gaming design.

[@SuperFusionAJ93]

Daisuke Ishiwatari= Rock & Roll Hideo Kojima Toshimichi Mori = Discount Hideo Kojima

[@SlayPlenty]

in eastern countries many people are dedicated and respectful i dont think its just these directors its in their culture as a whole. just taking public transport or walking around in taiwan is so nice its a stark contrast to west europe..(and then west europe is a stark contrast to east europe where everything was basically a dump in my childhood)

[@hazzydahaka13]

I know I'm late to say this but why are you speaking in past tense?

[@Siberianhusky89]

Is that why he barely balanced Xrd and made Strive into a generic fighting game?

[@polinttalu7102]

@@Siberianhusky89 yes

[@K4zuo3]

This is a true case of a multi talented person. He is an excelent illustrator, musician and game designer. And besides he is good at managing a business.

But he's not. MBAs take note: you will never be Ishiwatari; that's why you majored in BA in the first place.

[@Slayerofall21]

Regardless of whatever situation he finds himself in, whether good or bad, this guy has my support. Never in my life have I ever seen a fighting game with so much soul and dedication as Guilty Gear

[@moses3167]

He's definitely awesome. I loved the end when he talks about his favorite words. Also, I'd say there's a lot of soul and dedication behind Smash Bros. as well. Can't say whether there's more than in GG since I've never played GG but the Director behind Smash kept testing the Wii U version despite his injuries during development.

[@MelficeSephiroth]

I fully agree!

[@JM-vl3cy]

@@moses3167 aha I thought about Smash too. Weird how some games convey so much the passion and dedication the guys making it have. Sakurai and Ishiwatari seem to be pretty similar workers. It's the kind of game that when you're playing it, it's nearly as if the creator was there with you while you play and you're both having a lot of fun.

[@monstersinthecity]

Still think kof is the best but guilty gear is definitely fun

[@panuru9175]

@@monstersinthecity i think kof improved the genre and Guilty Gear is the proof of that

[@Dr.Strangelewd]

Daisuke is nothing less than amazing, not often a director is so involved with the actual process of game development instead of just overlooking the production. Hoping one day you'll be able to get an interview from Yoko Taro.

I just remember His music comp on 1999 with Trash Metal Influence. And in the last few years, he handles the development, really brutal.

[@CrossoverGameReviews]

Young? At 40? .... Hmm...

[@Zenos71]

he seems like such a humble person. definitely one of the most talented game developers out there.

[@GatsuRage]

I wouldn't call it "talented" but more like a "hard worker" person, he trained hard for every skill he has, and he is a perfect example that a human can do anything he wants as long he work hard for it.

[@Dasaltwarrior]

I have mad respect for Daisuke, The early Guilty Gear entries show an extraordinary balance of all of his skills as an artist from illustration, musical composition, and game design in such a well executed and realized manner for someone who was so young at the time.

[@HabarudoD]

Thats a lot of skills.

[@ArchipelDocumentaries]

It is indeed!

[@jonnysac77]

Probably the only fighting game director I can confidently call an auteur, not to shit on other directors or games but he really turns everything he works on into something that's distinctly him, I don't think Guilty Gear as a series could even continue without him and still be Guilty Gear

[@musashi876]

This is great. I love the Guilty Gear and Blazblue series even though I suck at fighting games, I really like its lore.

He made one badass game. At first, I couldn't get into GGX, because I couldn't understand it at the time. Then, he made Xrd with the perfect graphics, I just couldn't resist. Bought the game dedicate some time, understood the mechanics and now Im a loyal fan of the series.

Hah! At 8:00 you can see his headphones. They're Denon AH-D2000 headphones, which are fantastic... but like all D2000s, his are broken at the hinge that connects the ear cups to the headband. He liked them well enough to tape them together, i guess. That's pretty great.

[@Gxyz222]

I'm definitely looking forward to the future of Guilty Gear and what else comes out of that big brain of Daisuke-san! I use to be a huge Street Fighter fan back in the day, and while I still like the series, I feel like the soul of it is gone, and Street Fighter 5 didn't impress me one bit. I feel like Daisuke is picking up where Yoshinori Ono has left off, and that Daisuke is doing something new and dynamic to the fighting genre. Here's to the future!

[@fl21id]

Gxyz222 I used to be a fan of Capcom but I don't anymore with the direction they're going. Yes, I do agree that Arc System Works is going to pick up where Capcom failed, making games more complete. Don't forget Platinum Games, Tango GameWorks, IntiCreates, and SNK is going to do the same.

I love how he is so hands on with the game. He is in charge of the elements that really capture the project's vision and he relies on others to help him complete that vision. Reminds me of Director Robert Rodriguez.

I've never played a guilty gear game. I don't think I would be any good, but I would like to try it out. Japan looks like a very clean place. That always stands out to me when I watch these videos. I'm not sure if that's really the case, but everything always seems perfect and in its place. I would love to go and see for myself, but I don't know about riding on planes. Seems very scary. Enjoying Japan through these videos will do for now though. They are so good!
