‘Final Fantasy XV’ and ‘Kingdom Hearts 3’ DualShock 4 support discussed

Yes use the touchpad function, that'll increase the fun.

HelpfulGamer3839d ago

"Final Fantasy XV, KH3 is being developed in DirectX 11". Square Enix clearly lacks the skill in API programming.

I demand Sony to program FFXV API for smooth gameplay on PS4. Even better if the ICE team could help finish the game.

XtraTrstrL3838d ago

Yeah, that annoyed me hearing that quote. It's time to get away from DX already.

FlameHawk3838d ago

Why would Sony help on a multi-platform game?

Irishguy953838d ago

Hope the touch pad can be used for teleporting in XV, if you have 4 jump points touch the pad in the direction of the point you want to jump too. Would be very nice for dodging and stuff.

If that turn out to be fun then yes. If not then dont. Easy as that

EXVirtual3838d ago (Edited 3838d ago )

I wouldn't mind a few touchpad controls. Nothing major. I think that Noctis is going to have a smartphone, so they could use it for that. What I really want to see is how all those complicate moves are pulled off. Can't wait to see how tight the controls are.

Smashbro293838d ago

Wait, it's being developed in DirectX 11 yet they won't put it out on PC?

LOL_WUT3838d ago

Maybe they got bribed to keep it as a console exclusive who knows

EXVirtual3838d ago

There isn't a point in doing it. There's no noticeable market for RPGs on the PC. Plus, SE isn't that good financially (if they made it on the PC, they'd have to make different levels of the game), so porting to the PC is just a waste of time and money.

Smashbro293837d ago

That's all hyperbole and speculation. The reality is that it is essentially a PC game first that they then port to the consoles.

Granted there'd be some work involved in making it a polished PC release but ignoring a big new market? Just stupid.

DanielGearSolid3838d ago

I need help understanding this, if anyone look like to jump in... But isnt DX exclusive to Xbox One?

prodg523838d ago

Yes and no. The PS4's GPU uses a customized feature set that includes elements of Open GL and DX.

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled6d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?

Final Fantasy XV Review – A Royal Road Trip

Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.

Final Fantasy 15 director reveals why he left Square Enix, and announces he's working on 2 new JRPGs

Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.

Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.

FF15 is like FF13 its subjective people either like it or hate it.

raWfodog138d ago

I liked it. I haven’t played the royale edition yet but I’ll get around to it one day.

gold_drake138d ago

no no, 15 wasnt trash.

15 had a tremendous difficult development.

FinalFantasyFanatic136d ago

I really believe 13 was better put together and more complete than 15 ever was.

EternalTitan137d ago

Found the pathetic troll.
How is your jobless life going?
Dot worry, you will never get a job or a girlfriend haha!

Hofstaderman138d ago

Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.

TheColbertinator138d ago

I didn't care much for XV and I always wanted the original vision of Versus XIII but I think the dev team did what they could to salvage the project

Inverno137d ago

And yet people still blame him for the game turning out the way it did, rather than SE for the horrible mismanagement of 13 and Namura for being overly ambitious.

Dwarrior138d ago

Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.

gold_drake138d ago

this is also why Sakaguchi (spelling) left.
