Good time to buy stock in Square-Enix?

Why would you invest in a dying company?

That has to be the stupidest thing said, in the history of forever.

SE stock will continue to drop as their recent games have met with a negative response, and failures such as XIV have reduced consumer confidence.

Even if XIV 2.0 is perfect it is nearly impossible to re-market a failed game, and all the people on here who claim spamming advertisements will work have no real marketing experience. 2.0 will not be SE's saving grace.

SE's stock will rise again if the next final fantasy (15? versus?) is a massive success. If not, they will probably fall drastically.

There are a lot of -MUCH- safer stocks out there.

That being said, SE probably won't die as they can make millions off KH3, FFVII-HD/3D, FF15

If you want to invest in a winner, try ZeniMax Media if they ever go public (owns Bethesda). Their new Elder Scrolls MMO will almost for sure be one of the most successful mmo's on the market and will probably make ff look like a joke. Even the screenshots of it and concept art look years ahead of XIV. Plus they will have 3-way massive PvP battles and let you explore all of skyrim, morrowing, tamriel, and a bunch of other places. So its like every elder scrolls in one in a multiplayer arena.
And slated for release 2013.

The Elder Scrolls mmo is going to bomb hard and everyone knows it. Even Zenimax knows it. The screenshots and concept art look identical to Rift, they look nothing like an Elder Scrolls game. Every time they release information on the game its met with harsh criticism and lots of doubt. I'm sorry but the game is going to bomb hard.

I haven't been keeping up with it personally.. but i wouldn't be surprised. FFXIV might have bombed the hardest, but there's been a lot of bombing lately.
