yea its ridiculous how, since weve entered the hd era of games, that all of a sudden the ingame text has shrunken to a size where no one can read them

FinalFantasyFanatic170d ago

This is part of the reason I dislike playing on the TV, I think we can afford to make the text a little bigger, or at least give us the option. While I can read it reasonably well on PC, sometimes, even on a smaller monitor it's hard to read.

Thank goodness my eyesight is still great at 40. I've played games where I did adjust the font in handheld form but this game wasn't one of them thankfully. Blame it on playing through 11S and 9 again recently so lots of practice. 🤣

Square Enix Announces Declining Financial Results but Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Sold Better than Expected

Square Enix announced its financial results for the first nine months of the fiscal year, related to the period between April and December.
Mobile did badly. HD games still lose money. FFXIV is still a solid rock, and Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is the real hero.

"Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is the real hero."

SP, turned based JRPG. BG3 was GOTY, it's SP (at its core) turned based RPG.

CEOs: players don't want that. "Why aren't we making more money?"

gold_drake93d ago

haha yea
drahon quest is proof that fans want turn based combat

Cacabunga93d ago

DQ3 is the second best game i played this year after Stellar Blade

Got over 250 hours in Dragon Quest III remake. I'll probably put about that much more time into I and II.

GoodGuy0993d ago

Yes yes yes. Square for some reason still don't see the appeal of turn based despite many games and indies do so well. Really baffles me.

Shimsok93d ago

Persona 5 and its re-releases, Shin Megamit Tensei V, and Metaphor are all standout examples as well. I don't know what the sales for the latter 2 were, but they were critically-acclaimed. Granted, they were also all released by 1 studio, but you get what I mean. Your examples count as well.

CrimsonWing6993d ago

You want another sure fire hit? Parasite Eve and Xenogears, oh but you won’t because… well, I’m still trying to figure that out.

Gamehard93d ago

Xenogears I want more than any other game I can think of. Hell I'd buy it with bare minimum upgrades at this point. I just want the option to play it on current gen hardware.

Hypertension14093d ago

There's a good chance that it may be added to the ps1 classics catalog on PS5 one day.

Zeldafan6492d ago

I want Xenogears and the Xenosaga trilogy.

tay870193d ago

Parasite eve, man I want another game.

Alos8893d ago

Zenithia trilogy is a lock at this point

MeteorPanda93d ago

Revive Vagrants story, make it bloodborn'esque in setting and speech - watch money come in.

ff9 remake. dont bullshit upscale like you did ff8 - that was cruel

LikAChicken93d ago

I kinda wish they'd remake ff8 properly as well.

LiViNgLeGaCY93d ago

They're not going to because FFVIII fucking sucks.

GoodGuy0993d ago

Square I know how to do it. Bring back legend of dragoon, make turn based mainline ff again, keep DQ traditional. Easy money right there.

Alos8893d ago (Edited 93d ago )

Ahh yes, the beloved SE classic Legend of Dragoon

Gamehard93d ago

Square didn't make Legend of Dragoon lol.

Playing WuKong right now and I would put it on this years list best games. I wouldn’t trick it at the top but towards the top. It’s pretty damn good. I’d kick off World of Warcraft as I hated it when it came out, a too easy version of Everquest with cartoony style.
