Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto was recently asked about the chances of a Final Fantasy Dissidia sequel or potential Final Fantasy X-3 for PS Vita and his response is probably not what fans wanted to hear.
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."
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.
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
can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?
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.
@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.
The top producer of Square Enix flagship Dragon Quest franchise is stepping down from the role, following delays in developing the next installment of the popular series.
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.
Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
Jesus, people really need to relax. His words were taken out of context.
also, i just want Dissidia 3
Flame bait title.
Here's the quote:
"You want a new one!!? for PS Vita? Oh. I’ll inform the development team. If you have anything you want to tell them, you can tell me. You can also apply for jobs at SQEX. There is possibility for everyone but it might not be much as we have people from around the world looking to work with us. Our company also requires high qualification for new staff. But if anyone is interested, you may apply via our home page."
atleast read what you write
"You want a new one!!? for PS Vita? Oh. I’ll inform to the development team.
If you have anything you want to tell them, you can tell me. "
the other statement that follows can be taken as an alternative way to affect what square enix does, however it 's not half as bad as you make it sound in the title or as you conclude.
The Title is kinda Misleading
...
You want a new one!!? for PS Vita? Oh. I’ll inform to the development team.
If you have anything you want to tell them, you can tell me. You also can apply for jobs at SQEX.
On a positive note, at least they are taking considerations for it.
I will say that this was taken out of context but this company is so out of touch with what the gamers want. If any publisher is next to go under it's Square Enix.
