    Its a question of when - the PC version isnt going to be right away available at the end of the 6 month deal. If we go by more recent examples where FF7R didnt even come to PC (its not even on Xbox yet) until a year + later then that is quite the time.

    Heck, FF15 didnt even come to PC until almost 2 years later.

    The problem is always going to be - the company is hedging their bets that the game will sell very well on PS5. The console has had supply issues since 2020. On top of that, PS5 doesnt even have a lot of current exclusives that are worth the $500 investment - so realistically you are putting up a $500 barrier for entry for peeople who have been playing FF games on PS4 and PC.

    There is just a lot of factors, and with SE's current history - I am very skeptical.

    Ok, sure, bring it up, give me some #, I'm waiting. Don't just drop a talking about.
    The game literally was stuck in dev hell for 10 years, lost millions of dollars because of it, had its DLC cancelled, and the director literally quit the company.

    Do people unironically still think 15 is viewed as a success lol?
