R.I.P. Squaresoft

For 10 years of my life, Squaresoft has been and always been my most loved Developer. Back in the day(the good ol classic RPG renaissance days), they have churned out countless of RPG that i have love so dearly to this day. Final Fantasy, Front Missions, Tactics Ogre, Threads of Fate, Parasite Eve and countless others. With the merging of Enix and Squaresoft into one company, and having Yoichi Wada be the president was the day that Squaresoft died, with it the RPG empire came crumbling down, gone are the final fantasy's, front mission, and other new and fresh RPG tht they might have develop. I really don't get why a Japanese company such as Square Enix and even Capcom would want to westernize their games, isnt the appeal of their games in the first place is because they are of different culture and we want to understand or learn about that culture in the first place. They have countless of times made bad decisions one after the other. So i say, goodbye squaresoft, what a brief but sweet time i had playing all your games that i loved so much, farewell, i hope that we meet again down the road but I'm not holding my breath, farewell to the blissful afternoons playing your games, levelling my characters, acquiring all hidden secrets, you'll be miss.

I know I'm so sad.
They completely butchered Final Fantasy. =[

Squaresoft died a long time ago :(
All we have is a 'pseudo' known as Square Enix..
and it's not doing a very good job.

Still looks great on PS5. I just can’t bring myself to spend $699 for mid gen console. I’ll wait for PS6.

The PS5 Pro has some nice things about it, but after using it since launch, I can easily say that the base PS5 is perfectly fine for the majority of players out there.

Its nice to have if you have the cash. But honestly I think these mid gen upgrades should be CPU focused. Going from 10 TF to 16 is here nor there. And PSSR could still offer improvments even without that. As the gen goes on those CPUs are so poor and struggle. For example we're likely only getting 30 fps on GTA6. If it was a CPU focused upgrade that wouldn't be the case.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach review — a stunning triumph - The Times

Josh Lamb - "Now we have a sequel worthy of Kojima's masterpiece mantle (and despite that awful subtitle, On the Beach). Kojima has tweaked tons but has done so without sacrificing emotional complexity and beautiful writing. Death Stranding 2 is simply more engaging to play than its predecessor."

PSVR1 sold around 10 million and PSVR2 sold around 1 million. I don't see any logical room for a PSVR3 unless they have something special. PSVR was basically PS Move for Sony, hedging their bets just in case VR was a mass market product, but it clearly wasn't. With news of Quest 3/s sales faltering badly and question marks over there even being a Quest 4 I highly doubt a PSVR3 is even being considered.

kevco3311h ago

The question marks over the Quest 4 are 'when', not 'if'. Meta's new approach is smart glasses, putting a longer divide between Quest iterations. This is a good move, in my opinion. It will lead to eventual convergence of AR and VR.

It will be a big market as soon as they can have a completely wireless setup. When they can do that, it will be much better.

PSVR2 sold 600,000 units in its first six weeks. It continues to be updated and supported. Latest update was this week.

Profchaos20m ago

From what I recall psvr2 was at around 4 million shortly after launch

I doubt it, and PS2 VR is so good, I hope Sony continues to develop for it on PS6. Why not. They can expand the install base over this Gen into next.

Neonridr6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

given how quickly Sony themselves abandoned support for the headset, I don't see them taking another crack anytime in the near future. PSVR2 was so much more technically sound and delivered a much better experience over the previous model, but I think VR is losing its steam and many people were turned off from the first headset after it delivered somewhat underwhelming experiences due to the limitations of the original device.

I love VR and will continue to support it, but I'd be surprised to see a PSVR3 anytime soon.

VR needs to be completely wireless and a super easy plug and play. When they can do that, it will be a lot more successful.

darthv7248m ago

IF there is to be a VR3, it needs to address the biggest missed opportunity that Sony is guilty of with VR2. that is it needs to support ALL of their VR titles, no matter what. The lack of full VR1 support for VR2 cannot be under stated. And even in the face of declining VR2 sales... Sony STILL has not taken the opportunity to address this omission.

I'd definitely get a VR3 if it supported not only its own but all of their previous works as well. Wireless certainly would be welcome reason as well.

Im a psvr2 owner I love it but I wouldn't buy a psvr 3 unless Sony made a real commitment to supporting it via games
