was it worth it?
in terms of money or in terms of quality games? i think it was a mistake. should have been one game and the resources could have went towards new FFs instead of remaking a PS1 game. SE has become a mill of remakes which is sad desu
They're sequels, not remakes.
>>736234230For me? YesFor Square enix? Probably regret making it a trilogy spanning multiple console generations
>>736234230It ruined VII's legacy, so no. They ruined their golden goose and got nothing out of it because Rebirth flopped.
>>736234230Financially? It generated plenty of income, though I'm not one of their accountants, so I don't know specifically if this was their best use of money.In terms of reputation? No, after the shit show that was FF Versus 13, it's comical that they attempted to remake FF7 but it took more than a decade and wasn't actually a remake.
>>736234230I love it, fuck you.
>>736234230Clearly was as nintendo is following in their footsteps
Yep. Love it. Can't get enough. I wish they'd go beyond the original game and make a proper sequel to advent children too.
>FFXIII trilogy: 2009-2013>FFVII trilogy: 2015-2027 Apologize.
>>736234938For what? The reason Final Fantasy sucks is because they keep doing trilogies. That's also why the only game outside of trilogies that has released in the past 16 years is XVI.
Ff was never that good to begin with A casualization of a better strategy genre and even the action games are shallow trash
God no. Shit's sloppy af.
>>736234230No. Redditbirth was a bigger flop than The Spirits Within.
>>736234519>It generated plenty of incomeafraid not
>>736234230Economically? Probably not. Depends on how bad part 3 flops.
>>736234230No.They setup a intriguing premise with Remake, and then proceeded to ignore that premise with Rebirth.
>>736234230I've been spoiled by better JRPGs so this shit doesn't do anything for me anymore.
>>736234230You have to realize, Final Fantasy no longer has the mass appeal it once had. 10 was the last game that had a lasting impact on gamers, so what else they had outside of milking their most successful game? That's why the 7 remake trilogy is taking 10 years, it's square's last project that people truly give a shit about.
>>736237590XVI did well so Rebirth being slightly behind is no biggie.>>736238542Please. If XVII is announced tomorrow this board is going to explode.
Ruined most waited remake the problem it came in woke era where everything is censored if it cam in ps3 time would've been a bless
>>736238614>XVI did well
>>736234230It helped us really figure out that the only talent left at Square Enix are a bunch of out of touch autistic weirdos that are hell bent on using video games as their platform to direct extremely long movie experiences.
>>736238614nah 17 will be shilled by the same 2-3 people that lick the ground square enix shits onthen it'll release to 2-3m sales and they'll cope for a decade
>>736238614Every Final Fantasy game is met with excitement but then fades away after release. Find me the people who still constantly talks about 13,15, and 16.
>>736238976All three of those games have been bought up in this very thread.
>>736234230>Immeasurable dev costsI like how nobody has once brought up Sony footing the bill for exclusivity rights.
>>736238538FF as a brand is dead as fuck amongst young people. Nowadays if you mention you play FF people think you're some kind of weird weeb faggot, and they're probably right considering the newest games and the cringy remake of 7
>>736234230They already admitted their investment wasn't worth it.
>>736238714missing expectations isn't the same as catastrophically low sales. My guess is both broke even at worst, otherwise there'd be articles saying how the games sold at a loss.
>>736237590Hmm I wonder why you posted that article headline.
>>736234230They are amazing games so yeah
Rebirth was great but they put it in an awkward spot which is going to filter a lot of people. I'd be happy if the last part is as good but I'm not holding my breath.
