I'm 100% sure that Titan isn't speaking any English here. Titan sounds the same no matter what language you pick, and besides, it sounds completely unintelligible in later parts of the fight when he speaks again.
Likely involves creating a JP SE account. Shouldn't be that hard to do.
Ah... you already got it! Thanks!

"On Tetsuya Nomura
Tetsuya Nomura, the artist who designed many of Square's best-known characters was promoted to the role of director on one of the company's next major titles, Final Fantasy Versus 13, to plug the gap. Despite his studied nonchalance in interviews, Nomura, now one of the company's most senior staff was reportedly an anxious director (during one event in Tokyo a few years ago, when early footage of the game was shown to fans, Nomura sat backstage in front of a monitor relaying live footage of the crowd's faces, so he could watch their reaction in real time.) The game lunged in different directions and, at some point, Nomura was removed from the project. Presumably to recoup sunk costs, the game was retooled and retitled as the next entry to the company's flagship series."
holy shit lol
"The office, cavernous, brightly lit, with endless phalanxes of desks arranged in orderly rows, is full of the sound of muted chatter. Here and there staff test the game at seemingly random points of the adventure. Lines of debug code flit in front of the images, providing a kind of programmer's narration of the action. Around them mock-up advertisements designed to deck out a subway train carriage line the walls. Next to them, a series of widescreen blackboards scrawled with encouraging messages from the series' fans in silver pen."

Your morning reading for the day:

Couple of excerpts that stood out to me:
Apparently it was worse than we thought. This puts the comments by that NeoGAF guy in sharp relief.
I'm going to steal this.
I can't begin to tell you how much I agree with this statement. It's one of the hardest lessons I've ever had to learn.

"Final Fantasy 15 is, like any video game that had demanded this much of its makers - the long nights, the spoiled relationships, the incoming RSI - a labour of back-ruining effort, and of heart-swelling love."
I can only imagine how much stress and personal relationship problems the staff had to endure to make this game a reality with the long nights and days working on this.
This is why I don't like it when gamers flame the director and the staff whenever there is a delay, or when something is not perfect.
Back in the Nintendo 64 and PS1 days gamers enjoyed games for what they were and were ecstatic whenever a new game came out. Bugs and glitches were part of the charm of the game, and people ignored it and focused on the overall picture of enjoying the game.
Nowadays, before a game even comes out, we have people complaining, nitpicking, criticising, and talking as if they can do a much better job than the staff. Sad how gamers have spiralled downwards...
So many people like to talk as if they can do a much better job and are familiar with the process of game development.

"We were allowed to recognise that we had so much to understand in terms of the tech we were working with, in terms of the open world design, in terms of learning how to broaden the game's appeal beyond its niche." In this way, Tabata changed the atmosphere in the studio from one where everyone was afraid about what they might lose, to one where everyone was enlivened by the prospect of what they had to gain.
So much respect for Tabata as a director and manager. A lot of companies and businesses out there could learn a lot from Tabata's philosophy on this.

Holy crap man those designs!! The conductor looking people are probably from that big trainstation and whatever city that is from. The Military, WW1 looking characters at the top look fantastic! DUDE this game is literally merging all world influences from different time periods, HOW are they doing it so well. I need this game now
