Square Enix will be releasing three new manga titles later this year, all of which are available for pre-order now.
Today Square Enix announced its financial results for the first nine months of the fiscal year, related to the period between April 2023 and December 2023.
im enjoying FF16. while there is a lot of talking, usually you can skip it. Looking forward to FF7R2!
The story of Chloe and Max could have continued after the ending.
I wish the developers would have gone with their original plans, it sounded really good, but apparently they didn't have enough dev time make the game like that. I'm actually upset with what we did get in the end, mainly that final episode, it was enough to turn me off other games in the series.
You can find some of the cut stuff here:

But I can't find the article from when the game first game out that analysed what could have been.
He will be missed. Meanwhile, Toriyama will stay there long after we've been dead for ages.
Dammit. I don't think we'll ever see the Vagrant Story sequel now...
wow sad day for SE. His art style really meant a lot to me :( FFXII and all of Ivalice will miss him
Not a good sign for Squenix, people will start to speculate Akihiko is jumping off a sinking ship.
This is just like what happened with Capcom when they started going down hill, good thing is we might see these talented devs getting taken on elsewhere, or even starting their own company ala Keiji Inafune and his new dev company Comcept.
My 2nd fav characters design after Yoshitaka Amano. I love his artstyle for FF Tactics, Tactics Ogre, Vagrant Story, and Bravely Default. I think his the only person that can match the awesomeness of Yoshitaka Amano.
Now...let's see who's the next person that will leave SE. Is it Nomura? Kitase? Tabata? Toriyama? or...all of them. But it will be a very big blow for SE if Nomura leave the company.
