Now that the dust has settled, what did we think of Final Fantasy 27?
>>735008330it's not even out yet, we still have a year of waitingthat said it's probably gonna be garbage just like 16
HR was better than the first game
>>735008330Not as good as 14.
I still don't get how they built a supposedly realistic near future timeline and thought all this shit would happen by 2027
>>735010606They didn't. But the original Deus Ex takes place in 2054, this being a prequel, so they had to make it fit in the timeline.
>>735008330>they thought we'd be up to XXVII by 2027
>>735010684This was back when game development times were still reasonable. They didn't realize in the upcoming gen onward that game development cycles would take longer than entire console generations themselves.
>>735010678Nah they really did. They talked about it in the eyeborg documentary they made with interviews with the developers.
>>735008523Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>735008551kinobringers
>>735008330the scene where 27-chan dom'd the blonde loli came out of nowhere, but I loved it
>>735010787They should've cucked themselves in terms of expanding the time to make a game to 3 years only. It only makes sense to keep games contained to smaller-development scales so they can be more focused and deliver brilliance rather than jank, poop and uninspired slop.
>>735008330This shit looked so far away back when I first saw it in 2011, like 2027 sounded like such a long time, and in a blink of an eye it's almost here. Crazy.I thought we'd get at least like 7-8? mainline FF games by the time 2027 arrived, but we only got 3. I knew we'd never see anything close to FF27 by the time 2027 arrived, but at least like FF19 or 20, maybe, but not even that.Square really dropped the ball on mainline FF, they started wasting too much money, too many flops or not many big earners, and later focusing on the FF7 demakes. Dropping Luminous engine after so all that investment and turning Agnis Philosophy into Forspoken, FF15 being a massive dissapointment, FF16 being forgettable garbage... Even if by some miracle Square said "let's honor this design from DEHR and actually built FF27 around this poster's idea and look" it was just going to be another modern another Square disapointment like Versus 13/15, and it sucks because it honestly looks like a super cool idea that's worth a shot. Very Goth and 2000s edgy inspired. What a shame.
>>735010684more likely that they just set it to the same number as the setting year's end numbers.
>>735010678If they ever do a new Deus Ex game they would have to slide the dates ahead a couple of years or decades.I think we were too generous and hopeful 26 years ago and further back. We made too many pieces of media that showed us advancing too fast in 90s, 2000s and 2010s with giant leaps that lead to these massive cyberpunk worlds. I mean, we are getting there, but it's defintely going to take a little more time to match stuff like Hengsha, or GITS, or Blade Runner. Even with robots and 'ai'. Honestly the further it's post poned the better. Current times suck and anything that replicates those world means life will probaly get worse.
hengsha... home...
>>735011723Desu advances in medicine/biotech, AI/Big data, robotics, spaceflight... Over the past décades make a lot of "realistic" cyberpunk settings feel more real now than even in 2010 2027 always felt ridiculous but this could be plausible in 2040s
