NPD analyst Matt Piscatella has hinted at sales of Square Enix's Final Fantasy VII Rebirth having underperformed in the US.
Its a great game but the texture resolution on props/environmental assets is unacceptable I dont think its right for a AAA videogame company to put out a game for $69.99 with such low quality assets. The character models and Character textures look great but again the blurry textures on environmental assets is shocking for a game on PS5. I see hardcore FF7 fans on reddit defending the asset quality however nobody defended the apartment door textures on FF7 Remake but for some reason nobody cares about FF7 Rebirth's abundance of low quality assets.
the textures are barely that bad at all. sounds like you never played it and are just going by some random screenshots you see online.
unlike the first game where the texture issue was more glaring, i've not run into this at all in rebirth
It's funny how often the term "analyst" gets tossed around nowadays. But again, that's the only way they can remain relevant.
They should of released it on Xbox and PC as PS5 owners don't seem to buy JRPG'S. Also they could of made a deal with MS to have it on gamepass Day 1 with MS giving them a few billion to make up for sales.
Hopefully the new CEO of SE will cancel all exclusive agreements with Sony and make Part 3 and all future SE games multi-platform.

It is interesting to see that we are half way through the year and neither PS or XB have sold to half the previous year. Estimating there is a 3x boost for the rest of the year, it would put both platforms around 10m ea. Given the chip supply issues are still a very real thing... that seems like a plausible number. Using the same 3x sales boost for switch, it would be around 21m... that sounds very possible considering it would be 3m less than last year which was also 3m less than the year before.
I'm seeing more and more people finally getting their PS5's, I think supply problems are getting better
Betting it all on Switch being the "Best Selling Console of 2022" eat Nintendo’s dust Sony Pony's and all you Xbot's 😋
