In fairness the only reason Resonance won is because it's a better game.
>>750456779
i apologize to turn-kings
>still no sales announcement
>>750457059There's no need to apologize. It's just our turn, after all.
>>750457318
ban steam charts threads
>>750456739But I thought Square Enix said nobody was interested in turn-based games anymore? What gives?
>>750456779UmUh?
>>750457468Why? There are a trillion things wrong with this board and you think removing statistical comparisons of video games is the key?
>>750456739You know what the real kicker is? That's only steamWho the fuck even plays jrpgs on steam?Everyone I know bought the game on switch 2So those numbers are even higher for Resonance Turn based chads won.
No sales number yet?
slop33sisters…
>>750457579>using steam for a JRPG>statistical comparison??????????????You're either very disingenuous or are part of steam cultists who don't understand that consoles exist
>>750457579These threads and the Famitsu threads just promote wannabe shareholder shit that ain’t got nothin’ to do with video games.
>>750457623Yeah, on Steam it only stayed in the top 10 sellers for 5 days (which is still better than Rebirth, ironically) before falling to position 11 today.It's top 3 best selling on Switch 2.It's top 6 best selling on PS5.And it's also top 6 on the Switch 1.If this looks bad on PC it looks catastrophic on consoles.
What is it with chuds and their weird obsession with Final Fantasy being turn based? When SE releases a bunch of ther turn based jrpgs, but called something other than FF, it doesn't count. Re-release a FF game that is turn based, and suddenly they all act like this is the first time they have a made a game like this in 30 years.Is it just bots?
>>750457579If you killed off shitty salesfagging threads there'd be a trillion things minus one wrong with this board. So yes, I think it's the key, or part of it anyways.
>>750457774How is this bad though? It beat rebirth so it's actually the best performing yet
>>750457818>chuds
>>750456739Its almost like their games do well when they make ones that appeal to their core fanbase
>>750457649>shippedWay to inflate their numbers.
I am interested on resonance but the retarded CGI cutscene member berries attacks clash so bad with the game's anesthetic that they're singlehandedly preventing me from buying it
>>750457826Oh it's not bad, not for fans of Resonance. It's bad for fans of Rebirth though, considering that game that probably cost 1000x to make.
>>750457849thisthis might actually be the first ff game people i know in real life actually play and know what is
>>750456779I don't know if this is ironic if you planing some other sentence in your head and it got messed up and this is what came out, but on the low chance you actually meant what you typed: based
>>750457693>are part of steam cultists who don't understand that consoles existThis feels like most of /v/ for some reason.
>>750456739Reminder these threads are being made by Flopsona fags
>750458021Anything for a falseflag, huh?
>>750457997>>750457914>>750457825>>750457538>>750456893Excuse me fucktards but how often have you seen it where the normalfag goycattle are so tasteless and complacent that they give the lowest common denominator trash slop the highest sales numbers inflating pure trash because they're such mainstream sheeple? This is a valid statement for a change.
>>750457774Hope we get an official announcement number when a week has passedJesus this shit must have been profitable in the first hour
>>750457719what's up with the shareholder patrick from sponge bob meme? zoomer slang? is very common to analyze a games budget, sales and other stuff.Don't you like video games and it's industry? Should we stop talking about the GOTY awards too? It's very shareholder coded
>>750458098No one's disagreeing with you, see >>750457649
You think the game succeeded because of turn based combat. I disagree. It won because they increased that one lady's breasts size.
>>750457997>but on the low chance you actually meant what you typedyou have to be retarded to think it was a "low chance" instead of an intentional joke. genuinely kill yourself for being this autistic
>All those years wasted on Remake Trilogy and FFXVI when they could have made easy money with games like thisHA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
>>750458163The problem when you talk about shit like sales or views or the like and yes even GOTY is that they're completely tainted and I mean TAINTED by the fact of the normalfag sheeple mainstream masses. These NPCs can throw their money at any trash and people will think NUMBERS BEEEG without really looking at what's going on.Because of that, all those metrics are completely useless. Just think about it. Is McDonald's the best restaurant? >food analogy
>>750457889>a scene that lasts last than a minute is the reason I won't buy a 100 hour gameso...autism?
>>750458262>It won because they increased that one lady's breasts size.That only on /v/. For the rest of the world it's because of turn based combat.
>>750457579It's not a terribly valid comparison since Rebirth had a delayed port.
>>750458307Destroyed him.
>>750458305Hundreds of hundreds of millions of dollars wasted. For what? Nobody even knows that FF7R3 was announced. It's currently the 63rd best seller for Swirch 2 on Amazon. Being beaten by such hard-hitting titles as Terranigma.
>>750458307I understand you point, but that would be beside the point. The reason some anons want the game to have good sales, is for it to be considered a success and receive more attention (a sequel, another game of the same type etc). And that is true for other games as well
>>750457579Ask stupid question; get AI answer. I don't make the rules.>Using Steam concurrent user numbers to argue that Final Fantasy Resonance is failing or underperforming is a completely nonsensical application of data. In fact, doing so completely flips reality on its head, as the game's metrics actually demonstrate a massive success.This situation exposes two massive flaws in the "numbers go up" mentality of internet doomposters:>1. The Metric is Actually Breaking Records>The irony of using Steam numbers to downplay Final Fantasy Resonance is that the game actually dethroned Final Fantasy VII Rebirth for the largest concurrent player peak of any single-player Final Fantasy game on Steam, hitting an all-time peak of 42,885 concurrent players. It is also holding an incredibly rare 97% Overwhelmingly Positive user rating on the platform. The people using these charts to manufacture failure are literally misreading a historic milestone for a single-player JRPG on PC.>2. The Platform Distribution Fallacy>As a turn-based HD-2D JRPG, Final Fantasy Resonance targets platforms where the genre traditionally thrives: PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and the newly released Switch 2.>Traditional single-player JRPGs routinely see 60% to 80%+ of their total lifetime sales on consoles rather than PC.>Unlike Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, which launched on PC a year late, Resonance launched simultaneously across all platforms. The 42k+ peak on PC is merely a supplementary slice of the pie.>If the game is robust enough to pull record-breaking single-player franchise numbers on Steam—a platform where JRPGs are historically a minority genre—its combined sales footprint across the PS5 and Nintendo ecosystem is safely tracking to be a massive commercial success. The original commenter is a perfect example of looking at raw numbers without a single shred of industry context.Maybe next time try using your head and you'll get a human response. Fucktard.
>>750458719>Fucktard.well, that was rude
>>750458398So the multi-hundred million dollar game with a decade of development, years of advertisement, hype and shilling on the biggest stage in gaming in front of tens (plural) of millions of people that has (had) the strongest brand in JRPG history behind it got BTFO by a pixel game using gacha assets and you think the former is the underdog in this comparison?
>>750458571While that might hold true in a vacuum, all those points need a high trust society and unfortunately with the amount of NPC sheeple out there who'll just consoom whatever tiktok youtube tells them to, the waters get so muddied its not even worth it to take sales or reviews or really even "success" as serious metrics anymore.>hurr durr my garbage brainwashed more npcs to throw their money at it than yoursWe've lost what truly makes a good game.
>>750456739This is so based it's unreal
>>750458797You'd think the AI response was ruderThe point is think before you post or else you'll continue to deserve this treatment
>>750458719>get AI answerwait after reading it...it's not wrong... though...
>750458719>Maybe next time try using your head>from the guy who literally couldn't think of anything and confesses to using AINo (You) for slop. You'll get acknowledgement if you use your head next time.
>>750459198It's what you deserve.
>>750457889>watching the attack cinematic is optional; you can just skip it>using the attack at all is optional; you can just skip it>"Not good enough!"Okay then.
>>750457889Just do a challenge run where you don't use any visions.
>>750456739So the problem is not turn-based nor action focused combat, but Final Fantasy as a franchise not being able to attract new fans.
>>750456739Kill yourself op, I’m tired of this pointless tribalism for video games.
im having a blast
>>750459512Literally impossible
>>750456779What the fuck?!
>>750456739simultanious release vs staggered over years releasedoesnt take a genuis to understand this, you are dumber than average
I hope this encourages them to keep making games in this style as I personally love it. Really hoping for Dragon Quest IV, V and VI in the future in the HD-2D format.
>>750459593hey how can you even post here? Dogs don't have opposable thumbsor can read
>>750458021maybe i have yet to see a single persona/fatlus thread that wasnt revolving around final fantasy
>>750459593Was the Ditto plush necessary?
>>750458163>should we stop talking about GOTYnobody on /v/ has given a fuck about the awards
>>750459664This.
>>750459646That's what they said about this one.
>>750456779This man's argument is so right it leaves no room for debate.
>>750458848Yea honestly if we went by just pure numbers every single game other than stuff like Roblox, CoD, sports games, gta 5 online, random moba games in China you never heard of would be dead if only that mattered if we purely followed the numbers
>>750458848Based
>apparently MC doesn't end with a cute teasing witch but with her inferior genki selffuuuck youuuu japan
>>750459664Monster Hunter World was delayed on PC and still sold pretty well.
>>750457579We need more AI shill threads
>>750456739Anyone that wanted to play the FF7R games did on PS5, they were console exclusive for awhile. Resonance had a simultaneous release and is a port of a mobile game. I don't know what this is trying to prove.
>>750459836Exactly. Hence why /v/ is so stupid
>>750456739FFVII pandering ran its course after Crisis Core. Good.
>>750456779FIRST POST.BEST POST.
>>750458848if only there was some kind of solution for this
I enjoy the ff7 remake series and I dont care about this 2d pixel stuff at all. I also dont really care about any other ff games that are unrelated to ff7. Thoughts?
>>750460531When's your vasectomy?
>>750460531>thoughtsYou must be over 21 years of age to post here.
>>750460596I'm in my late 30s. I generally dont like anime games and find them cringe but I like ff7 and crisis core and the remake series. FF7 was my first ff game back in the 90s.
>>750459762yes!
>>750460682>don't like anime games>plays anime game but with realistic graphics
>>750456779>>750459825Couldn't have said it better myself.
>>750460725None whiter.
>>750460739I make an exception for ff7 because I like it. I find all other anime games extremely cringe so I cant play them.
So is this Rebirth doing really really poorly or Resonance doing really really good?
>>750458012Steam cultists have ruined this place
>>750460978
>>750457649but that's patheticthat's less than the originalon ps1
Its ok because FF7 Remake Part 3 will do way better than part 1 and 2 as its coming to PC day 1 instead of being snoy exclusive for a year or whatever.
>>750456779Based
>>750456779An IQ too high?
>>750461157If you think about it you have to cut the original's sales by 1/3 since it's on 3 discs, and by that metric Remake slayed it.
>>750459836>other than stuff like Roblox, CoD, sports games, gta 5 online, random moba games in China you never heardwhy is the human race like this?
>>750456739you're taking one down
>>750462909Playing games for the sake of playing games is an unknown concept to most people, they only really care about the social aspect or peer pressure, so naturally they tend to flock to whatever is the biggest and trendiest thing at any given moment.
>>750463262And yet /v/ will still think sales or current users or views or any of that shit means anything and continue to post them.........
>>750462026If you think about it 1/3rd of this game probably cost about ten thousand times as much as the original total game, and by that metric Remake got slayed.
>>750456739Cloudsissies BTFO
Can someone explain to me what the end goal of pretending some shovelware game is better than Rebirth is? Whats the actual point of this?
>>750456739timed exclusive. If it beats Revelation then you can gloat.
>>750463434>And yet /v/ will still think sales or viewsshills anonthose are shillsno one else talks about sales or numbers or views than shills
>>750463648Miserable boomers desperate to relive their childhoods clinging to a delusional fantasy that they can convince SE to make mainline FF turn based again deapite SE telling them repeatedly its not happening
>>750456779HOLY BASED
Is Resonance even the full game
>>750464238Yes.
>>750464269Huh, from what I saw folks were saying earlier, this is only like the first arc of the gacha. Wasn't really sure how to confirm that.
>>750459774Would that be with or without the Rebirth fans creaming themselves over thinking they'd only to get gaped?
>>750457623>Who the fuck even plays jrpgs on steam?Most JRPG enjoyers? Who would settle for an inferior experience.
>>750463434Sad.
entering this thread just to say the ff7 remake series is dogshit
>>750464325What kind of subhuman plays or even knows about the gacha?
>>750464673Not me, I guess. But it makes me a bit cautious. I guess I'll try the demo for Resonance, though.
>>750464710Remember to play on expert mode and beat the marauder

>>750457248In fairness this shit probably broke even at 5k sales
>>750464636Scrolled past this thread on page 2 and chuckled @ this post
is sakura a perma party member? she is voiced by my wife.
>>750464636That is a reasonable perspective.
>HAHA MOBILE SLOP BEAT REMAKE SLOP WE'RE WINNING BROSThe absolute state of Final Fantasy.
>>750465238Zelda's first step at course correction from increasingly oppressive linearity and handholding was A Link Between Worlds. Then BOTW came out and the rest is history.Who's to say in four years that Final Fantasy finally turning things around after spending the entire 21st century as a joke would be an enhanced port of a mobile game? Stranger things have happened.
>>750465238>Mobile slopWhere's the rolling and rainbow diamonds and SSR pulls?
>>750464375>rebirth fansthese are essentially redditors and I ignore all Gacha/FF7 remake threads
What do you do in Resonance?
>>750457248Usually takes a week doesn't it?
>>750465682Resonate.
>>750458797You had it coming, Tigger. I know you're better than this.
>>750465946whoa...
>>750457248Square'll be releasing a financial report next week, even though it falls out of the quarter they could still throw it in just to say things are looking good going into the holiday season.
>>750456779Hmmmmm that makes sense
>>750456779Also because its cheaper on release and released the same time as console versions and was not stuck in Sony jail.
>>750458307>>750458848>>750459836Trvked
>>750458571That point is the most important one, i don't care about shills, shitposts or anything, the bottom line isGame sells well = sequel and more similar games to it become reality, using the steam charts, famitsu or whatever is the closest we can get to that
>>750466437>released the same time as console versionsDoes that affect the sales? Is it like anon buys it in xbox/ps4/switch and not pc even when it releases later?
>>750457521:(

Has yoshi P been demoted yet?
>>750472376Kinda of an ironic image.
>>750457468BUMP
>>750458307This is why steam charts threads on /v/ are always wrong.
>>750458307The point is that people have been saying for years that they want turn-based FF and not the shitty action games they've shat out, and then when they release a turn-based RPG it outsells the shitty action games that cost 10x to make.The argument isn't that "popular = better", it's actually that SE is ran by clueless retards who don't know what their fans want
>>750456739I'd instabuy a game like this if it wasn't 2D-HD aids.Might still buy it but damn it's so ugly...
https://x.com/superhys/status/2115141771835629659>/v/'s favorite sales aggregate with no verified source says it only sold 400k copies in a week How do you reconcile this with steamcharts threads?
>>750477690chuds lost???
>>750477690chuds won?
>>750477690chuds?!
>>750477690a 40k peak on steam at launch means 250k ish copies on the platform so even if this place is bullshit 400-500k on everything sounded about right to begin withI think it also correlates well to how quickly threads for this game are dying off vs. the number of obvious ESL gacha shills in themAnyway I would rather every single sale this game gets in its lifetime go to World of Final Fantasy instead, fuck this game
>>750457623>switch 2Nobody buys this shit, everyone buys games on steam.
>>750456779Why is he replying to himself over and over
>>750478167>sale this game gets in its lifetime go to World of Final Fantasy insteadI have this game for my Vita but never started it...
>>750477690we wost?!
>>750458848See how they have no refute for this?
>>750478241Wrong
>>750456739Only happened because Square stupidly delayed the PC release. Delayed PC releases kill hype and cannibalize sales. A game can be bad an receive a hundred thousand players from hype alone. But if a game is bad AND people have to WAIT months before they can buy it, then those same people who would've bought in due to FOMO will instead just skip out on it.
>>750456739weird how simultaneous releases work
>>750458719lol bodied that freak
Should I get Resonance or Phantom Blade Zero?
>>750456779Now that it's doing better than Rebirth, expect the positivity around this game to suddenly evaporate. A lot of bad will incoming from insecure 7R fans.
>>750464325the "first arc" was complete in itself, they forced the story to continue by doing ridiculous retcons like bringing the veritas back to life
>>750480768Its okay the game can stand on its own merits especially with a demo anyone can actually play to see what the game is actually like
>>750481643Oh. Massively appreciated for the confirmation and clarification, anon.
>>750456739I'm actually playing rebirth RIGHT NOW (on the Playstation 5)
>>750482037WTF
I still don't get why people hated Rebirth. I had fun.
>>750482037yikes
>>750456739I really enjoy both games. I finished Rebirth though so I am not playing it anymore.
>>750456739I know nothing about FF, is this a good game to pick up? I like the pixel art
>>750485628It's the one to get if you like turn based RPGs
>>750456739>>750456779Oh no no no Demake bros
>>750466437but you did contribute
>>750456739This isn't really an apples to apples comparison because Rebirth released on PC nearly a year after the original PS5 version, whereas Resonance released on the same day across all platforms. Still a good number though.
>>750467257Yes, even beyond multiplatform owners an initial release gets more interest than a later port even if you only have the thing it's porting toin a same date world Resonance wouldn't have overtaken rebirth but it would probably still be fairly close
>>750486028>because Rebirth released on PC nearly a year after the original PS5 versionAnd if it was a good game then word of mouth would have helped it sell
>>750486028>because Rebirthis trash
>>750486028Let them enjoy their little 'victory'. Retards can only think in binary "my number bigger, me win". The context and the how doesn't matter to them. Even if you show them the data that Rebirth has still dramatically outsold this game, they'll quickly change the goalposts and say some other retarded logic that suits their narrative.So just sit back and laugh at their seethe when Revelation comes out day and date this time and blows way past the CCU of previous Final Fantasy games on Steam.
>>750457889plebbitor moment
>>750456739resonance seems really cool to be fair.
>>750456779>turn-cringeNo, I'd rather actually have gameplay.

>>750490109Pretty sure turn based vidya is a later invention. Did you select attacks from menus in Space war!?

>>750456739BARRY ARE YOU OKAY?ARE YOU OKAY?
Another sad loss for Rebirth fans. All 2 of them.
>>750478752I was informed ITT that no one buys JRPGs on Steam. So which is it?
>>750485628Better than you'd think, yeah. The owning company's not been very good to this IP for the last few... decades, so to see them make something that's pretty fun is neat.
>>750488993
>>750456779...
>>750456739Do PC niggers really think we didn't play Rebirth when it came out on PS5?
>>750488993Biggest cope in the thread right now HAHAHAHAHAHA
>>750492253The reason FF7R is getting gaped & raped in every thread is because posting on 4chan is technically turn-based combat.
>>750492838KEKEK
>>750492697No we know you did, there was just so few of you that getting shat on by a pixel game comes across as a little embarassing.

>>750496559who cares? japan is but one region
>>750456739so the games are comparable? I mean budgets aside the peak isn't much higher is it? HD2D is diminishing returns. No one talked about Octopath Zero. Its novelty will wear off if Square keep down this path. I think its better to keep doing big budget and lower budget games to mix it up.
>>750456779TRVKE
>>750457468ban (You)
>>750456739how is the game with so much shilling lose to a converted gacha?how in the fuck did you fumble a remake of FF7?absolutely fucking pathetic
>>750456739So you're just going to pretend Rebirth didn't take a full year to go on Steam where as Resonance was on it day one? Ok.
>>750480768>Now that it's doing better than RebirthSelling 400k is doing better than Rebirth which sold over 2M in the same time frame?
>>750456779kek
>>750492708If you say so Retard.But go on then, screenshot my comment if you're so confident Revelation will not easily pass this game's CCU.
>>750461157>but that's less than a game that's been out for over 20 yearsSo?
>>750498774>how is the game with so much shilling lose to a converted gacha?FF7R was exclusive to PS5 for a year before it went to Steam, that's why.
Jaded skeptic who played the demo here. Honestly surprised me, bought it and have since gotten about 10 hours in. Not CUHRAAZY or anything but solid. One thumb up instead of two. I think people are just tired of the experimentation and were craving something more traditional. I don't think they could do it again, this game was just in the right place at the right time.
>>750498912That's exactly what they're going to do.Whatever furthers their narrative is all that really matters to these retards.Ironically that same analyst website says Rebirth has outsold this game 10 to 1 on the same tracked platforms... But Resonance has a marginally higher CCU so therefore that's all that matters to them.
>>750457521Turns out it just had to be done right.
>>750456739>day 1 multiplat>old portADDICTED
how the hell has this shit somehow climbed back ON to the top-10 steam best seller list?

First Final Fantasy in a decade, that's not the MMO, that might actually make a profit.

>>750499276>8 millionHow much money is that?
>>750500117>FF17 will flop too and there's nothing you can do about it
Genuinely I think the game lost the plot around chapter 5. These fights are taking way too long even with half mp, arms akimbo, buff spam, dual cast, and weaknesses. I had to switch off expert, not for difficulty, but for sheer tedium. You can slam 9999 damage multi hits or gravity an enemy for 9999 and watch their health go down maybe a third if they are a decent mob. Bosses, what a fucking joke, they take way too much damage to kill. They also give you like 7 new visions to grind at once right before the most boss heavy section of the game where all you want to do is equip your favorites instead of these newfags.
>>750456779is it even legal? sounds kinda antisemitic

>>750499772I hope it blows Rebirth's sales out of the water and consigns Modern FF to oblivion. We DESPERATELY needed this return to form. Squeenix, let this be a wake-up call, and don't fuck this up.FFXVII HD-2D. Give the people what they want. Allow the series to return the lustre it once lost.
ff derangement syndrome thread
I mean it's not bad but it also didn't launch a year later. FF Revelation is going to go above 100k easily.
>>750500531Pfffft
>>750500572Um um um this isn't fair because metaphor was on sale for 30 dollars!!Of course, I'll still count remake and rebirth sales from when they were recently 5 dollars, but that's just our little secret, ok?
>>750500572what does this have to do with anything I'm talking about on Steam
>>750458307This is true but just because popularity doesn't = quality doesn't also mean the inverse is true. I've seen way too many retards use basically anti-ad populum as a genuine argument of why a game is good which is obviously not how that works. Normalfags flock to games but so does everyone else.
>>750458719The whole "it was a timed exclusive so actually it flopping doesn't count" was always cope.
DQ 3 Remake hit 45k. That seems really bad for a new game in a more popular franchise.
>>750478167>vs. the number of obvious ESL gacha shills in themjeets are so used to shilling they always project it onto everyone else.
>>750500364>Ba7ryIt's time for you to take your meds.https://arch.b4k.dev/_/search/text/Ba7ry/
>>750499772The funny thing about comparing sales numbers between Resonance and massive fucking games like the remake trilogy and XVI is that literally no matter how little Resonance sold or how much the remakes sold, Resonance still wins because it was made on like 1/10 the budget and so is always going to be the more successful of them.
>>750500861DQ3make sold like 3 million.
>>750457521>But I thought Square Enix said nobody was interested in turn-based games anymore?And they're right. FFXV got 5M in a single day whereas this only got 400k.
>>750456739does this game only have hypervisor? How are you all playing it?
>>750500209It used to be... the norm...
>>750500504But this is an FF thread.
>>750500934This. This game needed a scenario writer and maybe 2 programmers.
>>750500868I don't think there's medication strong enough to save these people.
>>750462026Don't worry Anon, I got your joke.
Resonance full 3D remake when?
>>750457693Consoles might as well not exist. Playstation is a movie-game device, Xbox is a streaming platform and the only exception is Nintenndo which sells first-party titles exclusively and anything not made by Nintendo flops.

>>750458098And nothing you said refutes the fact it is a better game than Remake or Rebirth. It might be for normies, fags, normiefags, cattle, goys, and goycattle, but it is still the better game.

>>750518120You mean Naoki Hamaguchi, who got promoted to studio head and executive officer position after Rebirh's release? Or you mean Kitase who oversees all Final Fantasy and literally works on the remakes on a personal level?Yeah im sure they will schedule a meeting with themselves. Probably to talk about how kino Part 3 will be.This steam ccu nonsense only proves that square's pivot from exclusivity deals is the right decision, rebirths ccu would obviously been higher if it released day 1 alongside ps5.

it's interesting to see hard evidence of how much a game is hurt by having temporary exclusivity on another platform. the pre-launch marketing for new games clearly does actually matter a lot. but you should still kill yourself for posing a troonchart thread.
>>750531846Probably happens way more often than not.

>>750564983>I think this just points out that the FF franchise is pretty much deadIf you think that you're a fucking retard. First of all, the vast majority of the FF fanbase is on Playstation. Steam means fuck all. Second, Rebirth was exclusive to PS5 for a year then when to Steam, where as Resonance was on steam day one.
>>750521570GIRLS
>>750565164Square has stated themselves that pretty much their entire fanbase for FF are in their 40's. And they're struggling to expand outside of that and it's the same people who never left.It's the truth. 2D, 3D, Turn-Based, Active Action, it doesn't matter.
>>750457623>Who the fuck even plays jrpgs on steam?Me...
>>750554791FF7 Rebirth metacritic score: 92 (same as the original FF7)FF Resonance metacritic score: 86
>>750565164>the vast majority of the FF fanbase is on Playstation>Rebirth was exclusive to PS5 for a yearSo how did that result in Rebirth's sales making them walk back the exclusivity decision going forward? All the fans were where the game was, why did they let it fail to hit expectations?
>>750565326nta but you're missing the point.that WAS all the fans.the fanbase is not growing, no matter what they do. it's a dead/dying franchise. there isn't any "fix" they can do.
>>750518418People just want a Final Fantasy that isn't action slop. Quality wise, Resonance is no better than his games that came before it.
>>750518418>out perform 7 remakeIt did pretty much the same, not out-perform.There is no growth in FF.
>>750565383I'm not missing the point, in fact posing that question to somebody trying to refute the claim that the franchise is dying was making that very point
>>750565425>People just want a Final Fantasy that isn't action slopNot true, I want more Jack more than anything.
>>750459593Cute dog.
>>750565496Let me correct what I said, people want an FF that isn't braindead slop.
>>750565530People dont' want that. People don't want FF in general.FF fans all want different things, but they're an ungrowing same-for-decades group of 40-somethings who will never grow in size.
>>750518298It’s funny how you don’t notice that poor green Hamaguchi is the one doing all the promoting, while the OG assholes Kitase and Nomura have gradually stopped talking about FF7 since the Remake. Now, ahead of the third part, they’re trying to distance themselves from the project.
>>750565326>why did they let it fail to hit expectations?
>>750565425>People just want a Final Fantasy that isn't action slopFF XVI sold 3M in a few days. Resonance sold just 400k.
>>750566794>9 months after PC releasehmm........

>>750566928Oh I'm sorry, I'll go tell Square Enix that they were wrong about it not meeting their expectations and killing their exclusivity deal with Sony after all because you think it did great

>>750565721Kitase and Nomura both have quite a lot more shit within the company to take care of than Hamaguchi does, he has the time and more motivation to promote it
>>750567274Post all the unrelated shit you like, fact is FFVII Rebirth on PS5 failed to meet their expectations and they admitted it. There is not a single thing you can say that could refute it.
>>750567281Kitase is literally the guy in charge of the FF IP. FF7 is literally what made his career, their Remake trilogy is nearing its conclusion, and it’s easily the most expensive Final Fantasy project of the next couple of years. And yet he’s saying jack shit about the grand finale. I feel like after the backlash to the ending of Remake, they gave Hamaguchi more power so that he’d take more of the blame if things go south. But it will go south, because Nojima is the lead writer. And he hasn’t managed to write anything good in 26 years.
