BlazBlue Producer Sticking To 2D

While 2D fighting games like Street Fighter and Marvel vs. Capcom 3 have 3D graphics, Toshimichi Mori, producer of BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, isn’t keen on the 2.5D trend.

“Presently, I’m going to continue with 2D,” Mori said in an interview with 4Gamer. This isn’t limited to fighting games. Mori prefers to work with 2D even if he switched genres and made, for example, a role playing game. “The reason why I’m fixed on 2D is after thoroughly thinking it through I end up back there. I love anime. So, I love 2D. Funny story, if Hayao Miyazaki’s anime was drawn in 3D, I don’t think I would like it.”

There are some 3D works Mori enjoys like Love Plus for the iPhone which he says is very good.
