Nah. It'll be shit as usual ever since the PS3 games.
Oliver Morgan
Again, Project Athia is FFXVI, that's the "big" reveal. Final Fantasy is now full hollywood. Written by, stylized by, cast by, and directed (sorta) by hollywood. ENJOY.
Jose Martin
>similar to XV and VIIR Both are extremely different so they cant be similar.
Joseph Young
Hopefully it is more fantasy and has cute girls again. Never got 15 because it had only men. Gay as hell.
Austin Foster
>slower-paced and with a bigger emphasis on strategy So it will be a half-assed "action" game with some retarded wait/"strategy" mode?
Carson Jackson
I mean if they tried to do what Resonance of Fate did, I would give it a try. I really liked their combat system.
Kevin Howard
source on any of those people being in the positions listed for the game? otherwise, 100% bullshit
It'll be the new MMO XIV is too inaccessible at this point, its story is more or less over and its very obvious that resources are being siphoned away from it with how the game keeps getting less and less content while milking its whales more and more with the cash shop.
Isaac King
where is nomura
John Roberts
Yeah it worked great in 7r, best combat ive played in years. Cant wait to see what they tweak now.
Cooper Diaz
Hopefully hands off. The dudes plate is already way too full.
Carter Ross
better be hard fucking fantasy again or the entire series, console, and both companies can take a flying shit modern shit can fuck off, i don't want to see so much as a lightbulb anymore
>slower-paced with a bigger emphasis on strategy >class-based mechanics
god please let this be true
Liam Johnson
>inaccessible nigga what theres next to no mmo at this point thats inaccessible unless you're actually a lazy asshole who doesn't want to fucking play the damn game
Cooper King
Release: 2023
Jordan Martin
that be a pretty short wait compared to every other final fantasy game
It takes literally hundreds of hours to catch up at this point, especially if someone wants to watch all the cutscenes. That's not the kinda time investment most people are willing to make just to get into a game.
Adrian Butler
3 years? That's nothing.
Matthew Gomez
Why do you keep posting these lies about Yoshi P or Soken? Both are only working on XIV, go ask them on social media, it's an easy way to piss them both off at this point.
sounds more like your projecting or something a few of my friends started playing the trial last week and they're already about midway through heavensward
Brody Ross
They literally just gave out a free trial that is like 100 hours worth of content with no time limit or end. XIV has atleast 3 more expansions too.
Dominic Powell
im not saying that they'll be working on the game but stop acting like devs wont lie to you on purpose until they're told not to
Connor King
No it's not user.
Hunter Howard
FF13- 2009 FF14- 2010 then 2013 which release fucked up many projects like Versus 13 and XV. FF15- 2016 FF7 Remake - 2020
2023 seems like it would be fairly typical. 7 years between 13 and 15 as mainline games.
Brayden Reed
But YoshiP said like a year ago that he has no involvement with FFXVI
Ian Carter
Okay, so tell me who is in charge of the next expansion? Because he was already signed on as its head and XVI has been in the works for some time now.
Tyler Carter
Games expanding free2play access is actually a sign of an impending end to the game as well.
What am i supposed to be projecting? I've been playing XIV since HW and made 3 different characters in that time, that doesn't mean it's not kind of inacessible for many normalfags. It's too bloated at this point.
Why do you have to "catch up" to be "into the game"? Like you just said, there's hundreds of hours of content for new players to enjoy. Even a themepark MMO like XIV has more to offer than just repeating dailies to climb the iLevel treadmill.
Austin Bell
>Final fantasy
This series has been irrelevant for twenty full years now. I can't imagine who cares about this
Samuel Miller
>t. I don't actually play the game but want to keep spouting bullshit
They've made everything easy to get into now. Crafting is easy, the story has been shortened for arr, rotations are easy, fucking ult fights are braindead easy now. the game isn't inaccessible in any way.
Elijah Baker
I see expanding F2P also a way to get people in more to potentially spend money on the cash shop and maybe subscribe. Like I will never play WoW again most likely because the trials are always timed and fairly limited which isn't how a community who started over 15 years ago can really keep up with when you have jobs and daily adult lives.
Jordan Mitchell
Oh no an mmo with an actual story that takes time to get through before you can join the ranks of the mindless grinding drones. The horror.
