Where should Final Fantasy go after XV?

Where should Final Fantasy go after XV?

Needs to go full fantasy. No more scifi or modern crap.

XV-II & XV-III.

back to turn base/ATB and a more fantasy like art style without realistic looking humans and all that fancy shit and textures, something like world of final fantasy mixed with the typical FF story progression of the older games and style and not chibi/K looking ass characters.

go back to using pre rendered backgrounds

>Fantasy must be restricted to a certain time period

into the trash can

Either to XVI or XV-II

Yoshida, or whoever did FF9's designs needs to be the main artist, and not Nomura.

Adventurers from a full fantasy that somehow ended up warping to a modern-era Earth looking location.

I'm a sucker for fish out of water scenarios.

into the fucking grave

After XV they should do something like FFIX, pull back the budget and make something more appealing to traditional Final Fantasy fans.

Came here to post this.

But really back to ff 9 style aesthetics, with a normal turn based combat system. Make he game huge and open world with a huge amount of good side quests, add a lot of optional bosses and dungeons. Make a great story, Hire Kojima. Be more like FF9.

this I believe.

something with FFIX art direction with more modern graphics without going too realistic.

I love that idea, we also need an unique story and world, each FF game had its own identity and I feel like type 0 FFXIII FFXV have lost that feeling, its just meh right now.

I dunno. Why not move on? 15? Doesn't that intimidate consumers thinking they're missing 14 whole games of content they should know for this one?

Under tha sea.

Guys

What if

FFXVI

Is just a patch for FFXIV?

Does it fix the game?

Agni's Philosophy

Final Fantasy: Call of Duty

Shantytowns, terrorists, cultists summoning valefor, potions in a coca cola glass bottle

A W A Y

Remakes out the wazoo, just milk the franchise dry with the already established good games because they clearly cant make any new ones

You already know the answer to that.

something like X
i loved water based world.
it looked really nice

I never really liked any other of the final fantasies world settings after that including XVI

I just looks like copy of XII only without the other alien races and XIII was more or less the same

>including XVI
This guy has insider information

FF XI-2

They'll have already started work on XVI by now right?

You can play other rpgs for that

This. It's what I truly wanted before all this shit, being a final fantasy fan is tiring. We need a turn based with amazing graphics and animations and just jam packed full of content and weapons and spells and summons.

...

It needs to go back to jobs
There also needs to be more Ivalice

A young male does on a journey through a fantasy world to take down an evil empire. He uses a sword or dagger or some bladed instrument. Overall, he's well-balanced in the stats, but is more on the speed and strength side. On his journey, he teams up with a white mage who is also his female love interest, another fighter, a hothead monk, and a blue mage who is kinda the 'weird' pick in the group, possibly non-human. Themes include: science/technology/civilization vs nature/religion/spirituality, rebelling against unjust rulers, and of course friendship. The game begins in a pretty basic area, possibly plains, a forest, or an island setting, but goes to exotic locations like a hot desert full of bombs and cactuars to a snowy mountain. The final boss is a deus ex machina from outer space.

this is it pretty much.
the older games were amazing, and I say this because I was like 10 or something when XIII came out and didnt like it and I tried 9 and it still is my favorite game to this day.

The older games were magic and I just cant describe it in another way.

I would like a customizable MC where you can choose your sex and appearance, background, and job. Jobs won't be as diverse as older FF games. Only 4 jobs would be available and they'd only become very specialized towards the end. You would be able to choose a variety of party members through your journey, but only have a maximum of 3 people in your team at any time and you could not get everyone on your side during a single play through. It would be a medieval style game through much of the 1st half of the game and then become more scifi later. It would be more open ended with various endings, more like Chrono Trigger than other FF games. Choice would matter more than in older FF games, but quests would guide you along the 'canon' path. While the world would be open world, the choices you make would determine the areas you would cross. Imagine the world as a giant cross. From the beginning, your actions would decide which path you would largely take. Though all 4 or so paths would lead to a the same ending if you want, they would also provide their own endings. The game wouldn't be as long as a traditional FF game, but it would provide more replay value.

>traditional Final Fantasy fans
>Implying you guys matter anymore

For one dont let Tabata anywhere near it. That dude is just as bad as Kojima. Going over time and over budget. fuck that guy.

they need to remake 12

>Implying XV won't be the most successful FF ever
>Implying we won't receive an XV Trilogy due to its sheer popularity before SE moves on

Literally the savior of this franchise. Screencap this.

That's already happening

Go back to Ivalice.

In the gutter

This just goes to show it's not the setting that's really the problem, it's the style, the aesthetics, the tone. Even FF8's environments have something that more recent titles lack.

>Implying this bloated mess will make its money back
I can't imagine how much money they've sunk into it by now.

>Where should Final Fantasy go after XV?

Playable female characters

Fuck the fujos

Final Fantasy fans:
>WE WANT THE SAME SHITTY TURN BASED SYSTEM WITH RANDOM BATTLE ENCOUNTERS BECAUSE ITS A STAPLE OF THE SERIES. IT ALSO HAS TO APPEAL TO MY 10 YEAR OLD SELF WITH BRIGHT COLORS AND FANTASY BECAUSE MY AUTISM AND OTHER BRAIN DEFECTS MAKE ME GET TRIGGERED IF I SEE ANYTHING RESEMBLING REALITY

Non Final Fantasy fans:
>We want Kingdom Hearts 3!

Don't use nomura character art would be a huge step.

nobody said that random encounters are good or turn based combat is the best system, but its sure as hell better as press 1 button to win and you can not die since you can just use a poition if you die and fight on

I would prefer turn based to their awful attempt at action combat with XV.

Nomura needs to fucking go back to just doing monsters, his humans are fucking awful.

Crisis Core was my favorite combat system

>something that more recent titles lack.
And what is that exactly?

Back to X2 with you!

I like when he uses Amano as a catalyst. Since you bring up dissidia, Notice how the characters created by Amano translate pretty well with his art. In my opinion.

I think he's good to have around, but they abuse him because of VII's and KH's success. He's too deeply rooted in everything. And I'm a huge artist supporter. It should make me happy the artist gets so much respect, but I now see how destructive it is to just rely on this one guy.

They're both ass.

At least in the turn based titles the simple act of attacking didn't feel awkward and unresponsive. At least you wouldn't get PRESS SQUARE TO BLOCK prompts all the time because the fights are such a clusterfuck you can't see the enemies attacking.

ff9 should've been the last ff

epic fucking times playing ff8 and ff9.

fran rule 34

This, XV and VIII both have a modern fantasy setting, yet XV's design seems much more uninspired.

Even though I don't like FFIX that much and I hate FFIXfags even more (just look at how obnoxious they're being in this thread), I do think it's about the right time to do another full throwback FF. 1-5 fantasy style with ATB combat. Too many people feel alienated from FF now.

this

He clearly meant high fantasy

Won't ever happen again after IX "bombed"

>people hate the modern FF look so much that they would rather have more of this

>FFXV
>Uninspired

To the grave where it belongs

>I was like 10 or something when XIII came out
Meaning you're 17 now. MODS

It should go back to XI and start over from there.

Sure, why not?

...

Heterosexuality

After they're done with the 19 episodes of the FFVII remake too?

Something that isn't:
>FNC
>MMO

and ffs bring back the guch

Oh no, wouldn't want all these fantasy designs to be in a fantasy game.

Do a cyberpunk/steampunk/urban fantasy setting capably like Versus was supposed to be.

Leave generic Medieval stuff to Eastern European devs Who do it way better than the Japs. Futuristic settings are where JRPGs really shine.

Don't ruin that just because you like memeing about the FFIX meme.

>anthrompomorphic animals don't attract furfags

They should do another FF9-kinda deal

I love the visuals for DQ11 and I'd love to see a Final Fantasy in that style, in a classic fantasy setting

>Other FF games don't also attract degenerates
The existence of sexual deviants doesn't affect the game itself ya know.

Do what Persona 5 did a polish the fuck out of the JRPG formula. Just without the slice of life elements.

Into the grave. Series has been getting progressively worse and needs to stop.

FF should go on a break. Squeenix should pretend they can still make good games and have a whack at bringing Front Mission back.

Damn near every fucking long running series could use at least a 7 year break right now, motherfuckers would rather milk them to death than let them be.

Probably full hands on deck for VIIR.
Then after maybe the second episode they will start working on a XVI.
It will probably take roots back to steampunk. Take inspiration off of VI.

To mobile devices and stay there forever.

I want a more FF9 vibe to it.

this is nothing short of amazing, but just go on the front page of artstation to see similar "CG" created feats

i see what you mean, but that's what a team effort is. check out how disney movies are made, you see some decent artists with great ideas and then their ideas are sharpened by a more technically gifted artist with less a less inventive mind. I sincerely doubt Nomura who has strengths in 2000s jpop fashions would be able to make something as simple as a cute frog with a cape.

How did they fuck up the combat so badly? Isn't this the same team behind KH?

Yeah but Tabta's in charge and apparently he wants combat his old hands can manage.

I'd rather have a blend of fantasy and scifi like X. If I wanted full fantasy I'll play DQ instead.

It had a good thing going with Versus. Now it's boring trash.

It should go to mobiles and stay there.

FF has never been full-medieval like you think.

I don't mind XIII's sci-fi heavy setting, or XV's mix of modern and fantasy, but I would love to see black mages and shit in "next-gen" graphics.

>but I would love to see black mages and shit in "next-gen" graphics

It's called XIV.

I know of it's existence, but I refuse to get into a pay2play MMO.

This is your FFXVI for tonight.
