That you may actually get.. There is rumor that Final Fantasy XVI- will be either one of two things.. It was talked about that if single player, it was going to be inspired more from Skyrim/Zelda Breath of the Wild, which would be interesting. The other rumor is that it may be more like Destiny (not a FPS LMAO), but big open world, single player story driven, but you can play with others.. Its more likely they go that route if they make another multiplayer title.. I do know one thing for sure, XIV will not last as long as XI did- no way.. It feels like the team has either run out of ideas, or they are working on something newer and bigger.
Next Final Fantasy MMO due soon?

A few years from now could make sense. FFXI in 2002, FFXIV in 2010. In theory that could make a new MMO very soon likely (I mean going by that pattern it should have been released this year!), but if you think of FFXIV 2.0 as more of a new game, would put it more in the 2022 range (8 years after 2.0). I think a new one around 2022 could certainly make sense (which would likely put it in preliminary stages now).
I'd be surprised if there's not at least a small team working on ideas / concepts / etc for a new MMO, but that could go on for years before real development started. -

The only thing I want from the next FF MMO is for it to take place entirely in Ivalice. That's right, I want the playable races to be the various races from FFXII, Tactics Advance, and Tactics Advance 2. So much of that world we've never seen.

09-19-2018, 09:02 AMRhysatiThat's horrible to hear. Nexon is cancer to gaming. My first real MMO was one of their games 20 years ago. Every so often they just would up and delete any accounts that hadn't been subbed within something like 2 or 3 months. I played for years and all of my characters that I invested hundreds of hours into went bye bye.Quote:

I really doubt it. This game still feels practically 'new' and there's still so much left to do in it. I wouldn't put stock in pattern measuring from XI to this, since there's only one example, a pattern doesn't really exist.

If they do, I hope they consider the Switch as a port, online RPGs would be pretty awesome to take with you. Thought maybe that XI remake would pop up, but I think it's shelved like so many of their other projects.
A new MMO that should be a spinoff, not a mainline FF game. Smaller scale, three man parties, overworld dungeons and raids, lots of exploring and looting, horizontal progression where you can raid, pvp, or just grind for endgame gear. No more trinity, just three capable jobs going out and saving the world. -
09-19-2018, 12:41 PMAlerionUh, I wouldn't say it was the ONLY reason. It was also a terrible, terrible piece of garbage.Quote:

Well, the results of the survey hasn't been released yet (I actually had great fun writing my thoughts and ideas in that one)... plus that interview by Happy is almost a year old.
Secondly, Yoshi and his team have just attained the 14 million+ mark... and business sense is that SE will continue pushing FFXIV with those kind of numbers. Storywise, I reckon they can crank out at least a couple more good expansions before seeing a wane.
That said, yes it would make sense to start looking five years ahead and try to start thinking of the bare bones of a Next Gen Final Fantasy MMO. -

This game is barely started.

This game is old. Not sure how get that it barely started. Game is almost 8 years old now.

I doubt we'll get another one anytime soon, but I'm sure SE is working on something to replace XIV (or XI). This game may not be that old, but the engine and source code is heavily limiting what the game could do or handle. It would be smart to start working on a new project as these past 5 years kinda showed us that there's not much they can really do with this game, currently anyways.

Right now it's too soon to start thinking about the next FF:MMO. Everyone knows this, and the guys at Sqaure-Enix know it's too early to announce something that hasn't even been planned yet.

09-21-2018, 09:01 AMRisvertasashithey just talked about continuing FFXI for another ten years...Quote:

I only started FF14 like 2 months ago because my new computer got a standard rating on the benchmark. When the game first came out my computer couldn't run it so I gave up on it back then.
I'm not a PC gamer so I won't bother getting a computer with all the fixings just for gaming. A new FF online game will be awesome but I won't be able to play it at start like FF14 I imagine. -

If they were to make another MMO and they were smart, they would just rebuild XIV properly on an up-to-date engine and with no spaghetti code around, so that they could do way more with it than what they can do now. That way they would attract more players while still keeping the current ones, as essentially it would be the same game (same world, story, characters, community, etc., in other words, everything that makes people feel attached) but polished and improved. But I know that they won't do it, at least not beyond updating a thing here and there until the game dies. They've shown already that investing a lot of money here is not one of their priorities. Also, if they fixed the issues they would no longer have any "excuse" to make people pay for retainers and the likes, so... no.
Other than that, making a new MMO nowadays means taking a lot of risks, and I doubt that the money guys would be happy about that. Unless they make it F2P, which would be terrible news for the players, seeing how bad things are even with this one being P2P. -
09-21-2018, 09:11 AMIlyrianI don't think they even want this one tbh.Quote:
