    Square Enix, it's time to come clean about your plans for the future

    Not a single soul believes that CBU3 is back to solely working on FF14. They're working on FF16 for PC and FF16 DLCs at the MINIMUM.

    What else are you working on, CBU3? What are you not telling us? Are you hiding the fact that you're working on FF17, the next MMO, so that people will continue to have copium for FF14? Because that's what happened to 11.

    How is this a conspiracy? Back in SB people already guessed that CBU3 was working on a single player FF game because Yoshi P said he would like to make one.

    Yoshi P has said he would like to work on a new generation MMO and that FF14 is the last MMO in the "second generation"... Yeah the hints are pretty clear.

    Don't see what he has done to earn so much trust.....

    (I am referring to Yoshi, not WoW players.....I know what they did in 2019.......but what has he done? I understand ARR, but you could only go up from there regardless of of who took the project)

    After a recent article from the ff11 producer about the state of ff11 for the future whatever little bit of copium they had left for any sort of content is gone.

    The same will happen to 14. The only question is when. I think this ten-year period is going to be used for CBU3 to make FF17 using funds from FF14...

    It probably depends if the current formula that they been using for the last 10 years will continue to keep peoples interest for another 10 years with the current formula. I dont think the games current formula will carry the game for 10 more years.

    FF17 is not likely to be soon. There will be DLC most likely for XVI, but DLC doesn't have to take up all of Yoshidas time. They can outsource that somewhat to get it done since its just DLC. Even quality DLC is often guided, but outsourced by a company. Even if its just to another team within the company. My point is, people are being realllllly dumb here and need to wake up to the fact that we know nothing about how it works, just what it MIGHT entail. This is a conspiracy crapshoot of a thread. I dont mean to be harsh, but Ive really had it with this argument. Its all based on rumors that we dont even know to be true or false. Greater clarity on how much of the budget for XIV is being used for XIV would be nice though, and I don't disagree that those questions should be asked. Just don't be surprised if they dodge the question.

    Also FF doesn't usually repeat the same director, so just because it will likely happen one day, does not mean it will be creative business unit III.

    You know what would make for a really fun game? A Creative Business Unit II FF game for the next installment. Though maybe a combined II and III. Dragon Quest is absolutely on par with quality these days, and the ideas for Bravely Default, Octopath, and their other games are often really fun. It should be considered tbh. II just deserves a little more attention for their successes, because they are absolutely as good as III.

    Congratulations!

    You've just discovered the deep dark secret of gaming companies that, well, want to remain gaming companies over the long haul. "Reinvest funds from earlier games towards new games". It's amazing how companies do that, isn't it?

    Of course they're not, the biggest money maker for SE is mobile games.

    Single Player games and MMOs take a backseat to gachagames.
