New FF Title

[Starlord]

SE can sustain multiple MMOs fine. The problem is there's already 1 large and successful FF MMO and one they're trying to get out there again.



*Claps* you learned sarcasm

I'm serious.. I really couldn't tell them part. ( but I'm glad I was able to fool you even though it was the other way around lol).

It's just how I'm seeing it...

Edit: Like in this Video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNLXPHQ1HqE

Visually I can't tell the difference, but we all played games long enough to know where a CS is and where is Actual Gameplay. What I'm trying to say is, the Graphics Gameplay wise look CGI-ish to me. That's why I said they look " Streamlined"

You really believe that?

SE has done it before, so yeah. The only reason they even dropped FMO was because lack of interest or else they'd have been running FFXI, FMO and XIV/ARR.

If the same population XI had was playing FMO they'd be supporting it. XI made them the most money of any project and FF in general, you really think they'd shrug off the opportunity to make more money? SE isn't like other companies who've only ever ran MMOs, they make console games as well so they have plenty of divisions and people to sustain maintaining multiple MMOs.

You just proved my point. Do you know how much money SE has bombed on ARR? And they are still in development and will be for years, that is assuming it's successful. 1.0 wasn't and got a terrible wrap by the majority of gamers. Then they try to make an even bigger scale MMO for the PS4 which would cost a horrendous amount of money, which in turn would be a gamble as many people will see it as a ploy by SE to attempt a sad comeback. The point is they wouldn't make enough money.

Disappointing announcement but pretty much par the course for Square Enix recently. Aside from the work on 2.0, their other projects have been ho-hum at best. Honestly, since the launch of the PS3 I feel as if Japanese developers have been severely restricted by the high cost of producing a game.

In the 90's and early 2000's quality RPG's were constantly being churned out. With the high cost of producing and properly marketing a game in this day and age, its not surprising to see the Japanese devs targeting handhelds.

Imagine the business Sony and Square would do with a Chrono Trigger/Cross sequel as a launch title for PS4. Or even a FFVI or VII remake.

As the years go on and the technology advances, I really find myself longing for the simpler SNES and PSOne eras. Games were simply that. Games.

Did you see how the CGI and gameplay were streamlined?! I couldn't tell them apart! Super Stoked about this man!

[Hysterior]

SE... that conference was such a letdown...
Coming on stage to serve a "we will show a game later but in the meantime let's watch a video from last year" was unnecessary...
I had my hopes up again... maybe it's my fault... (?)

If they announce XV, I'll quit smoking. *lights up* Your move SE.

Can't wait for E3 now

[Volsung]

possibilities:

ARR (I dont think so because its not really news)
13-3 (again not really news)
versus-13 (been needing info on this for a while)
15 (would be a shock to the system)
unrelated FF title (ya never know)

I have a really good feeling that as others have also stated, It'll be Versus, but renamed as Final Fantasy XV
