FFXII, for example, suffered greatly from executive meddling - despite the lead developer having created Vagrant Story; one of the few games to score a perfect score in various gaming magazines back in the day.
Famitsu, back when getting 4-10 was actually meaningful as they didn't give those at the drop of a hat for AAA titles from Japanese developers.
(Also as far as the Tomb Raider thing is concerned, it did draw a profit but they went on record that it sold below expectations at only... 4 million I believe.)
For me, right now logging in feels like a complete joke. Since my goal is all-60 and they've not really offered a good alternative path for leveling (still doing the odd dungeon/even fategrind route), I'm essentially grinding away the fun I used to have playing the game.
Also, the less we talk about crafting, the better for my mental health.
