Rumors & Speculation: Square Enix's Project X

TGH Writes:

"Square Enix’s Project X has been speculated and in development for quite some time. So the question is what could it be? We at TGH like to deduce and things down as gamers, to possibly discover and think about what the next big title could be through rumors and speculation. Let’s not forget as of February I believe Square announced they are working on 5 Unannounced projects. So without further ado, Project X. NOTE: We are not confirming or any of these projects again pure speculation unless otherwise stated."

I really doubt that it's a sequel to Final Fantasy X. Heh, it's developed by GPG... expect it to be Dungeon Siege

Pretty much every game they list is a game that SE would NOT hand out to a western Dev which is who will be making whatever project X is. New IP is about the only thing they might make outside of SE.

As many have said it's more then likely something to not get to excited about. it will more then likely be underwhelming and if you keep that in mind and then it's NOT underwhelming it will see like that much more of a surprise. Hyping yourself up is just a way to further disappoint yourself.

I had hope for a split second that it was Xenogears related but remembered this is Square ENIX, they're too lame for that now.

Every1 know that w/e it is, it will be another sh1ty game from SE so when the announcement done ppl will say "See, it was another crap from SE like we though.." and then they will forget it instantly and move on..

Square Enix has jumped the shark. The titles they are now releasing are far below the level of previous gen releases.

Nier? Last Remnant? SUB PAR shovelware. You can say the same for FF 13 which is clearly not holding the interest of it's core audience. A linear love fest that has been short lived and significantly below expectations (no towns for the first 25 hours)!? FF 14 is not going to deliver either, and with the news that Wada wants 13 versus to go multiplatform that title will now suffer creatively as well.

I say let Wada continue to fly this company into the ground. By the time the board wakes up it will be too late to pull up and save the company.

You can only piss on your fan base for so long....

I’m Glad Atlus & SE Changed Dates To Avoid Competing With Shadow Of The Erdtree

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."

More intelligent than guerilla games

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 guilty of insider trading breaks silence to accuse Square Enix producer of lies

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

solideagle14d ago

can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?

Chocoburger14d ago

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.

carrotcakeag14d ago

@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.

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.

jznrpg18d ago

Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
