Haha, I would love a Type-1. And on a related note, a Versus XIV would be pretty cool, too.

Oh, and I forgot to mention... I don't know why they went with these titles. They don't lend themselves to sequels whatsoever.

iamtehpwn4527d ago

I think he means Versus XIII-2. LOL or Final Fantasy Versus 2.

Type-1 for the Vita. Yes please.

I don't mind they begin development of that straight away.

Type-0 Is The Darkest Final Fantasy Ever Made

DS: “I hate that Type-0 is forgotten among the Final Fantasy games. While not the strongest entry, its mature story makes it stand out from the others. And even though Final Fantasy now has three rated M games — including Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin and Final Fantasy XVI, — Type-0 will always have the crown of being the first, and arguably the darkest.”

i agree that it is indeed dark, but it has its issues.

and i feel like the ending is what makes it really a dark final fantasy game.

the rest is more or less war where teenagers fight.

This game was the epitome of the FF dark age pretty much, was hella boring and the gameplay was tedious. I'm glad SE got the series back on track

gold_drake318d ago

well, it was more of a spin off rly.
especially after they dropped the fabula nova crystalis stuff

I actually really love this game, the main problem however was that the entire story and personality of the characters, was in the lore that you need to dig very deep to find and external materials outside of the game, honestly it has my favorite lore in the franchise, I wish they had made the game more story focused, god it would have been a masterpiece

Because Tabata is a decent director in my opinion and hopefully it's a console pc game

smashman98845d ago (Edited 845d ago )

While I didn’t really enjoy XV as much as other ff titles tabata did direct crisis core and type 0 and I loved both of them. I’m interested in seeing what he does with full creative control.

Harkins1721845d ago

He made all the wrong moves with XV. Hopefully he doesnt here

pietro1212845d ago

A lot of those wrong moves though weren’t entirely his fault. A lot of the blame for FFXV coming out the way it did falls on the higher ups making dumb decisions I.e forcing them to make a engine during the development of the game.

DarkZane844d ago (Edited 844d ago )

Well, he had to make FFXV from what was left of FFvs13 and that was supposed to be 3 games apparently. There wasn't much he could do.

Harkins1721844d ago

@pietro1212 every first year dlc should have been part of the game. That includes exploring the dark world during chapter 14. Gameplay was a mess. And you felt like you had 90% of end game abilities at the start of the game. The game needed at least another full year of full development. The engine wasn't his fault sure but ever little thing a fan of the game said he took personally and wanted to add it. It didn't need to have online multi-player.

@pietro1212

Lets be honest, he could have just went with the original vision Tetsuya Nomura had for the game, the plot and assests they had been in development since FF13 Versus was announced.

Instead he came on board and tried to scrap almost everything in the small time frame they had, why would you do this rather than just working out or using what Nomura had left behind.

Just felt he wanted FFXV to be HIS game and not Nomuras when the best course of action for fans was to just finish what was started.

pietro1212843d ago

You're right the both of you. Fox, I didn't know about that part. I didn't know it was his decision to start fresh, it was a bad idea.

I actually liked FFXV, so I look forward to what he’s working on next.

H9845d ago

For someone who did his best with FFXV despite it being in development hell for 6 years before he took over, he deserves to be acknowledged as a good leader, taking over from someone who changed his vision once a year, and then actually putting up a decent game is a achievement, add to that how Final Fantasy type 0 and Crisis core are good games as wel, I am looking forward to what he does next

gold_drake844d ago

definitely, this is what ppl always overlook.
