How Square Enix is Pioneering a New Style of Storytelling

JD Schmidt writes: "Square Enix games, and their flagship JRPGs in particular, have often used the concepts of time and space as crucial plot points, starting all the way back in 1987 with the very first Final Fantasy game. But this year, nearly thirty years since the creation of the original Final Fantasy time loop, Square Enix has been experimenting with a new form of metagaming that combines game mechanics and settings, which would otherwise be taken for granted, with storylines revolving around space-time travel that allows players to inject themselves directly into the story."

This article needed a spoiler alert when it came to talking about how the story unfolded in World of Final Fantasy. I read a part I shouldn't have before simply closing the site in shock lol.

Wonder what happened to the leaked medieval game that they were working on ... hope that's still on going and gets released sometime after GTA VI

gold_drake2d ago

eh wat?

its been on "break" for 11 years now ha 5 came out literally 11 years ago

isarai2d ago

Seeing as how it's been like 12yrs between releases, i don't think taking even more time is a good decision for the series

TheNamelessOne2d ago

So GTA 7 in around 2045 or 2050 lol

Mr_cheese18h ago

Well I really hope they make some $$ AND make a HFR2 in the process.

I’m wonder if Microsoft fully sold the Hi-Fi Rush IP. They kept the publishing rights of the original game. I don’t even understand why the IP was sold. MS could have had another of its menagerie of studios do another Hi-Fi game, despite such a thing being unlikely.

It was given for free on gamepass. It didn’t sell well. Look at starfield it only sold 2.5 million because of gamepass

Sciurus_vulgaris12h ago

Starfield did $235 million in revenue on Steam alone from Sept-December 2023. So I’m sure it sold considerably more than 2.5 million copies.

Yes, it did sell well. GP version has a fraction of the reviews that the Deluxe Edition (more expensive purchase version of original) has. If anything, it shows that more people actually bought the Deluxe version than played the GP version, on Xbox at least.

Hi-Fi Rush on the Switch 2 at launch would probably sell a good amount.

so i assume PSVR2 is not going to take its place. That's a shame as I do think it could benefit from the VR2 improved fidelity and controls.

Well, they did just announce a native PS5 version the other day. Maybe there's hope, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Play No Man Sky for open world experience on PSVR2

Never was a Minecraft fan, so no more support isn’t a big deal for me.

What I would like for Xbox and Bethesda to do is update Skyrim VR to be playable on the PSVR2. That’s the only game I want out of the Xbox catalog.

OtterX22h ago

I wasn't a Minecraft fan until VR. It heightened the experience for me, but I prefer to use texture packs to improve the look a little bit.

I'm slightly bummed about the drop of PSVR support bc I was starting co-op w my daughter w this. Her on the PSVR Minecraft, and myself on the PC version w my Quest 2. :\
