With the announcement of the Kingdom Hearts 10th Anniversary Box and a reveal of what it contains, Default Prime author Kyree Leary weighs in on how trivial the DS games are, the overall plot of the series and how he wants a new Anniversary Bundle.
Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."
Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.
HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.
It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.
Yuji Naka was fined $1.2 million and given a suspended jail sentence for the crime.
I find his comments around how Balan turned out to be very insightful as to why the game is trash. He basically apologises for its existence
can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?
Balan was knowingly rushed out by S-E, it had an extremely short dev cycle and was fairly low budget.
Naka was the game's director until near the end when he was fired or perhaps he quit, I forgot.
@Chocoburger Yeah they did fire and replace him which caused him to unload a bunch of rants about the company. The project only existed because of Naka in the first place, he convinced Square to give him one shot at making a platformer. They gave him an opportunity but pulled the rug out before he was done for reasons not explained.
The top producer of Square Enix flagship Dragon Quest franchise is stepping down from the role, following delays in developing the next installment of the popular series.
Please o please don't turn dragon quest into final fantasy square enix we dont wont that. Dragon quest works well just as it I. Plus you'll piss off Japanese fans to.
Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
Ugh..I am so sick of people thinking it’s one of the best game series of all time. The only reason why Kingdom Hearts is popular is because of hardcore Disney nerds. It is definitely not the best game ever made.
I only keep buying these games because I want closure to the series. The games are great as far as being fun, but the plot has only gotten progressively worse with each new iteration with new games being released to just expand on side stories I wasn't interested in in the first place.
I'll always remember Kingdom Hearts as the series with great potential ruined by Square Enix's greed.
I for one love the series and dont go on a post to shit on it :)
