I won't be blaming anyone. The game had run almost 3x as long as its life expectancy. If I had to blame anyone/anything though I would blame PS2 and Xbox for having kept it from getting an overhaul when it was extremely profitable.

Defeated by the legacy of "PS2 limitations"

SE's $19 billion dollar per year profit company

Are you sure that is profit? You, up until this point, seemed to know what you were talking about. $19 USD Billion profit sounds like a unicorn.

Revenue I can believe. But profit, no lol.


EDIT: NVM, saw that your USD was a mistake and its yen. Yeah that sounds decent. 193 million in profit, very respectable.
I shown my evidence supporting my ¥19 billion per year claim.

You said $ originally. a few zeros difference between yen and USD.

Besides my original mistake, they still made ¥19 billion last FY.

It's both on page 1 and page 15 of the annual report.

True, I also hope that their next investment in FFXV is not going to flop. The graphics, graphic engine, battle systems alone seems worth trying it and buying it. I love how they are always using very high-end cutting edge technology to become the leaders of RPG development.

This one title, "I am Setsuna" was a good model experiment I believe. Hope it does better with time on the sales end. Monitoring it's success/progress is very interesting in the marketing perspective.

SE stopped making good FF titles when SS became SE. Though saying that I am mega hype for the FFXII remake probably more than I am for FFXV.

FFXIII led him on, making him think it was going to get better but never did. I don't see how this is so hard to understand, probably because I hated FFXIII.

Now everyone calm down.

I certainly hope that Final Fantasy 15 is a higher quality game than Final Fantasy 13. I struggled to enjoy FF13, but I powered through it in hopes of a payoff at the end through some form of superior end-game or post-story content. Sadly my hopes did not come to fruition.

I feel that the older games had a more satisfactory formula in place in regards to end-game content. I sure would enjoy a game that allows me to enjoy an in depth post-game experience without having to suffer through an uninspired and unenjoyable main story.

Yeah I am doing windows updates on a lot of images today, so kinda bored at work.

Also I think the information regarding the topic for the thread has been well presented, discussed as thoroughly as we as a community are capable of, and now posts are completely off topic. Maybe a mod can do a little locky-lock, wrap this one up early and call it a day, eh?

12 felt to me like the story ended way to quickly. Too many loose ends needed tying.

Matsuno was the guy writing it

Matsuno reportedly was temperamental and refused to come to work for a month after part of the Final Fantasy XII team had left Square Enix to join Hironobu Sakaguchi's new company Mistwalker.

The only truth there is. Best time was Millenium edition of all those Xenogears and FFT titles.

With Hironobu leaving, we lost FF.

I can't feel anything else but respect for you! a person who appreciates FFXII deserves a place on this planet. The rest of you need to gtfo and stop reproducing.
I immensely enjoyed FFXII's battle system. Going through the story and hunts along the way was more challenging than any other FF title I played.
Can I have some of that respect too?

i bought FF13 and FF13-2 (didn't even open the packaging for FF13-2......)

i ended up playing my mobile game for the freedom aspect of it >_>

ps- why not allow the ps vita to mirror the PS console from a wifi connection ? like i can buy a season pass for PS online or somefin..
That's a shame, FFIII-2 was streets better than FFXIII
