Nearly everyone who has played one of the many popular Square Enix games would agree that they had affected their lives in some way. Their stories have brought along rollercoasters of emotions. Their characters have touched our hearts in ways we never thought they would. Their music has become our lullaby’s. Their worlds have amazed. No matter how one was to look at it‚ Square Enix has brought along many games which were the best things in our life and shall be treasured forever.
Today/Tonight we present to you the first addition to the collection: The Mana Series
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.
What a word vomit, rambling, turd of an article that simply states the obvious. Classic exputer.
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.
Legend of Mana was such a good game. I'd like to think Bastion was the spiritual successor to the game and not that dreadful Dawn of Mana for ps2.
Secret of Mana was my first JRPG. Loved it. Seiken Densetsu 3 was also amazing. Never played Legend, I heard mixed things.
The man who spearheaded the Mana series started a new studio called Grezzo, and did the Zelda Ocarina 3DS port, hopefully they do another Mana-esque game.
Secret of Mana was a good game, but I didn't like that the other two characters were controlled by AI, so I didn't finish it. In fact, to this day I have problems with all the games that does that, like FFXIII and Ni No Kuni.
