Y’all, don’t look too much into the “if.â€

Nomura sounds depressed.
Also it is low-key ridiculous we don't have all of the somebody's names yet.
Based on what it seems like, there won't be another Kingdom Hearts game for a long time which was honestly expected. Considering Nomura is supposed to go full throttle into the Final Fantasy VII Remake, I think that will take precedent over any KH tile (or any Square game).
I remember reading that the plan was for Nomura to completely shift his focus to that after KH3 came out. If it ends up being episodic, we could even have to wait longer for the next game
I can only see that if it's another smallish game. If FFVIIR really is gonna be multiple games, I reckon the wait will be longer. I don't think he'd start KH4 until that is finishedI would think he knew of the wait for this game, But im still betting on 2023 for the next game

I wouldn't imagine it to be that small, because this was the end of a Saga, so naturally certain elements should end in a satisfying way, but because KH4 or whatever the next title be called will be a Fresh Start, but still carry certain plot elements from KH3, they wouldn't have to go too far with it. Seeing the amount of Sequel hooks in KH3 tells me this.I can only see that if it's another smallish game. If FFVIIR really is gonna be multiple games, I reckon the wait will be longer.

Well maybe he's finally realizing that putting in mysterious elements to get discussions going amongst your friends post-game is meaningless if in the next interview he just says "no, it's this" and point-blank ends all discussion.The interviewer asked good questions and Nomura hit him with most bland answers (except for the DLC stuff which I’m excited for). But when Nomura says things like it’s simple to understand, then give him the answer if it’s so simple. He wouldn’t be asking if it was Einstein. I swear he does it for three questions in row saying “you should understand†and “you can figure it out†well dude it’s clearly questionable if someone is asking lol.
At first I thought all this talk of desiring a blank page was meant as a "I want to start the saga off with a fresh start and don't want to concern myself too much with answering random lingering things from the past one" but the more it is brought up in this interview, and the way he keeps saying "if there is a next time", and the way this part is phrased ("I do want to finish it as early as possible this year and have the team start work on our next project. As for the future of the KH series...") almost makes it sound like the blank page he wants is a completely new, non-KH title, and that Osaka will move onto make this game before any continuation of KH? Hm.
Who knows, you could be right. But IIRC Disney wanted a KH3 soon after KH2 came out and Nomura was able to decline and put if off. It seems like he has almost complete creative control of the franchise. I don't think they'll just give it to someone else in the company and I don't see them pulling resources from what is a remake of Square's most successful game everOsaka Team will continue working on the DLC so they can release it within the year, and then they'll move on to the next game. If Square Enix greenlights KH4 or whatever the next installment will be, then that's what they'll probably jump to. Nomura doesn't have the authority to decide on a whim what he wants to work on or when he wants to do so.
Nomura is probably depressed we are all still talking about ships after he threw a million UX bombs at us.
Or the fact that he has to focus on VIIR rather than working on KH 7 Days Versus XIII
