No New Final Fantasy XV Info at E3 2014
- Thread starter Flying Wonkey
- Start date
This saddens my soul, as FFXV was the title I was looking forward to hearing about the most this year. After last year, I thought it would only make sense to blow us away this year with an amazing trailer showing off FFXV in its (what I had hoped would be) nearly completed state. I wasn't REALLY expecting much for KH3 outside of a possible teaser trailer, which I suppose we technically got early. *sigh*
Huh, wat, how did you come to this conclusion? oO How does it make sense to release another FF MMO after they just restarted with ARR? MMO are a long-term business. FFXI was their most profitable FF ever.
So, you're hopeful again?

I thought this was a 2015 title but maybe it's even later if they don't have anything to show yet. Especially considering that SE is generally cool with adding 5 seconds of content to an old trailer and calling it new. Hopefully it's not back to the drawing board on the title.
No, The Last Guardian is this Gen's The Last Guardian.
FFXV is this Gen's FF versus XIII
In fact, this game is worse,
it was announced a couple years BEFORE TLG

At least we'll always have Poland.
Yes, this is what it has come down to.
The entire nation of Japan.
Who once pioneered game development and were trailblazers in the industry.
Have now been outclassed by Poland.
I blame cronyism. They should be firing all of their devs like the Western pubs in Schreier's Kotaku article.
I would seriously love that.
So, Miscrostransactions right?

lol wow.. Square Enix and their zipper loving director have had a pretty hilarious fail in regards to this game.
Famassu, its time to give up.
They have nothing to show because they didn't make any substantial progress.
It seems like last year's showing was a desperate attempt to cling to relevance and most of it was fake footage.

I'm just wondering what does Square have in its portfolio this year. Only thing I know about is a Hitman mobile game and a HD remake. Maybe Tomb Raider will show but I don't see that releasing this year. Their financial reports next fiscal year will be terrible.
speaking of Yu. Persona 5 is coming next year :'D
and we know it will be a great game.

Please understand folks. These things, they take time. You can't just flip a switch and release a game like Final Fantasy XV.
hopeful of what?
Do you guys really think SE is competent enough to prepare a TRILOGY remaster in a reasonable time ?
I think that's almost impossible.I highly doubt they have anything for PS4 other than FF14.
Yoshi-P is a miracle.

Shocking.
I'll never understand why they didn't just cut their losses, quietly cancel Versus XIII and start fresh with a new mainline entry for the PS4/XONE.

I am shocked, shocked that there's nothing new to be announced about this. I mean, seriously, my mind is blown.
I originally said 2016, but now I'm starting to doubt that too.

Well, that is entirely not even possible. The game was already pretty far along, and they've been at it for a year now. They said they're going to show it this year, so I guess we just have to wait a bit longer.
It's not vaporware. It's a mainline FF game.
Sure, why not? They did a great job with Tomb Raider. First company to even have one out actually.

Amazing! You've outdone yourself Square-Enix. I was expecting you to churn out another 3 minute trailer made up of mostly recycled footage and 20 seconds of new footage, but no, you're not even going to do that,
It's like they not only don't care about their own incompetence, they've embraced it with pride.
They've missed a whole generation and now we're close to the second E3 since the next-gen began, and it's not yet the 'optimal' time to release new information on the game?
Are they that out of touch with reality?

Well they probably have the next Hitman, Tomb Raider and Sleepings Dogs 2 but who knows if they're showing those.

At this rate FFXVI will come out before XV.

Jesus. Square is so incompetent.
And Deus Ex Universe. And Just Cause 3. Even in their "OMG so incompetent" years they'll have probably 5+ major games.
Other companies like Bethesda will have zero.
And they just announced SQEX is working with the Remember Me developers on a digital title today as well. Who knows if we get a trailer for that.

Disappointing, but really, at this point, I pretty much expect to hear nothing about this game until SE is standing on stage, literally talking about it. Even then, I'll think they're just BSing us!

They can always outsource
If they outsource it to the Chinese company and did FFX HD we would at least get better textures of LR but everyone's face will get redesigned for no good reason and look weird.Wenger'sBakedBaguettes

Well at this point I suppose a FF7 remake is more likely to be announced and released before this FF Duke Nukem version.
Of a DQ7 3DS localization announcement.

Remember when SE said they were wrong by announcing shit and not showing anything else for so much time?
Yeah....
I hope unnanounced game is another Lightning game, just for laughs.

Are we sure he was talking about E3 as being not the optimal time to make announcements about FFXV? Or was he talking about that Kingdom Hearts event being not the optimal time to make FFXV announcements?
Well, now I'm hyped for an eventual FFXVI, at least I'm just going to believe Verendus. He was (mostly) right last year. Reminder:

Explain? I don't remember TLG being announced in in 2006.
Yes!!!
It's happening! I can feel it!!! This Tuesday for sure.
Oh yes!!
(I was going to make a dumb reference to Dragon Quest VII, but decided not to... lol)

Bethesda is just studio belonging to the large parent publisher. Just like how SE is now not just made up of the Japan studios. It's unfair to say that SE is competent and Bethesda is not when you compare one studio of a publisher (Elder Scroll Bethesda) with a few few studios (the SE western studios). It's obvious that when people say that SE is incompetent they're talking specifically about its Japanese studio.
Ha, if this turns out true I'll just have to laugh. Square-Enix has truly been less and less relevant with each coming year and at this point all they're doing is churning out crappy mobile games and remakes.
Thank goodness I never cared about this game. Sadly it looks like it's too "Nomura-ized" and I effing hate Nomura. Just give me FFXII for Vita and I'll be happy (unfortunately I fear even if it's announced we won't see it until like 2016).
