>but I can blame Itsuno for some nonsensical decisions in DD2 that weren't related to budget
If you're talking about what I think you are, I think it may have also come down to not having enough time. Itsuno strikes me as really ambitious with his game ideas and going as big in scope as possible. Maybe he needs someone to reign him in a little, but this wouldn't be the first time a company shoved something out the door before it was ready.
DD2 in particular has a lot of things that felt like they weren't properly realized, but would make for this really grand JRPG if they were. I also realized that I ultimately liked DD as a "fantasy combat simulator" and would be fine just fighting armies of monsters in a huge megadungeon, but I think Itsuno was earnestly trying to make a living fantasy world, which is why the game was so focused on those aspects instead of making a dungeon crawl.
