Games are a media that relies on technology to be innovative and forward thinking and interesting. Personally, I love being at that forefront when something new comes out.

Demons, chaos, dragons - all of them are different incarnations and representations of our idea of death in 'Dark Souls.'

In order to produce the satisfaction of comprehension, there first needs to be the process of comprehension. Furthermore, the overarching idea at hand needs to be something that is actually comprehensible.

I enjoy the process of adding elaboration into games and like to communicate with users through the details I create.

I've observed some surprise in the reactions so far from people who were not aware that FromSoftware does other things besides 'Souls.' This serves as a reminder to me that we have an established reputation - and that we should work on different games so we can be more flexible and build a broader profile.

I'm not one to restrict the potential that 'Dark Souls' has by insisting that only I can work on the titles.

Everybody knows what the core of 'Dark Souls' is - the dev team does, the fans do, the media does - and that will never change.

For me, 'Dark Souls III' is the end, but that doesn't mean the end for 'Dark Souls.' If someone other than myself, like another staff member, wants to make a 'Dark Souls,' then I don't want to deny others from making future installments.

I'm considering 'Dark Souls 3' to be the big closure on the series. That's not just limited to me, but From Software and myself together want to aggressively make new things in the future.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice''s story is one of fate and growth.

I believe that From Software has to create new things. There will be new types of games coming from us, and 'Dark Souls 3' is an important marker in the evolution of From Software.
