Now that FFXV is a massive blunder, what will save JRPGs now? Persona?

Now that FFXV is a massive blunder, what will save JRPGs now? Persona?

Who should direct the next FF game? My pick is bring back Matsuno under Sakaguchi's supervision.

I am Setsuna

If they have any sense they are going to focus on XIV.

But why? XIV can support itself. It doesn't need AAA teams on it.

Why? That game only exist to fund other games, the same is true for XI and DQX.

>JRPG
I only play smt so whatever

Let Ito direct the next FF.

>next final fantasy
Could this actually be it though? Could it flop so hard that square doesn't see a point in trying again?

Isn't Sakaguchi trapped in mobile hell now?

Because it would print money. WoW is dead and Blizzard is desperately trying to milk it for all it is worth. The market is ripe for another 10 mil subs MMO and XIV could tap right into that.

Even if it flops hard as fuck and only sells 3-4 million, then the brand is still strong enough to justify a AA-like FFXVI.

Dark Souls games sell 4-5 million copies per installment and those games have made Bamco rich as fuck. You have no idea how much Dark Souls helped them gain relevance it's crazy. But FFXV will probably end up losing money because they won't sell 10 million copies of this. No way.

He's pretty close to SE now. And he's looking even healthier than Tabata. Nothing restricts him from going back to SE or SE allowing his company to make the next FF.

XIV will never be that game, it's another uninspired themepark MMO.

Pfft. They are milking the VII fans way before that with the remake and the obvious second compilation stuff way before that. Easy money on their part since VII is their big money printer.

>Now that FFXV is a massive blunder
Where? In Sup Forumstard land?
Don't get hasty. Just wait for a few months so they announce FF XV PC port and we're going to go from 1/10 trash to 9/10 OMG THIS RULEZ SO MUCH faster than you can say 'shill'.

Why would XV be a massive blunder? People are still gonna buy it like crazy you autist

Following Sup Forums's logic the game will be a blunder because it's not a grimdark spinoff of FF13.

Does it matter? Each FF has been a blunder game wise. Itll make money still since theyve built a good foundation of games in their past.

KH3

This. If anything a lot more people will probably buy it just because it could pander to the casuals. They dictate the market after all.
Never mind the retarded amount of YouTuber that are gonna shill the game because they are casuals as well.

>what will save JRPGs

A complete and fundamental shift in their standard design. 95% of the world is obviously getting sick of their ham-handed 2deep bullshit plotlines and needlessly grindy turn-based dogshit excuse for gameplay.

>what will save JRPGs now
Probably a doujin RPG-maker made by some autist in tokyo's suburbs. It's gonna be surrealistic yet strong in the storytelling department, and the gameplay is gonna be old-school with a gimmicky, yet fun, twist. Explosive popularity ensues. After a few months of shareware status, a Steam version is gonna be released, with some new, yet unnecesary content.

After a few more months, its effects will be seen in the industry: SF's hipsters are gonna try to copy it, the mainstream japanese industry is gonna take obvious cues from it, the usual. After a some years, it's gonna be forgotten by normies and it'll return to it's cult status.

Rinse and repeat after the industry stagnates again.

More tits and ass might help top. I could do with a few more Tifas.

Nope. Extreme sexualization will only drive more people away and further contribute to the (correct) stereotype that Japan is full of incredibly creepy pedophile rapists.

Neofagger go home. You lost the election. Nobody likes your kind anymore.

Tifa is so hot why do turn-based JRPGs have to be boring shit I can't even play her game and see if she's a cool character fuck

...

But JRPGs are fun!

>My pick is bring back Matsuno under Sakaguchi's supervision.

That would be the best possibility, but you know that wouldn't happen.

Bloodborne 2

Sakaguchi retired though. He lives in hawaii and gets royalties from that cell phone game

PC players do actually like games.

That said, FFXV looks like it was a bit of a bad idea from the outset

Doesn't the Bravely series exist to do this?

Just wait for Bravely Switch

>(correct)

Loled at this. You had to put it in brackets because you knew it was bullshit.

The tales series is the only one that has maintained quality over all this time.
Zestiria is their only failure.

haven't added to my tifa hentai folder in awhile. thx.

>Zestiria is their only failure

It's the only Tales game I own. Fuck!

Whatever Monolith Soft are working on

Only one thing will save it

Except not really

They already investing 45mil for the next patch, is the most invested MMO in history.

Nomura is directing FFVII Remake, it will be good if it does not go through development hell and SE does not decided to steal his baby from his hands, if he leaves the project take it as a sign to lose hope.

booby?

FFXV has not been released yet. How is it a massive blunder

Leave Square Enix to me.

The entire game has already been leaked.

Okay so where is it

In Peru and UAE.

>blunder
>game isn't even out
>implying it won't sell in the millions on popularity alone
>implying it won't be the most popular getting money from grimdarkfags, fujos, waifufags, warfags, newfags and loyaltyfags
Why do you even make threads like this?

We should mememagic this into existence.

>or SE allowing his company to make the next FF
there's no way in hell they're gonna bend the knee like that
If there's one thing SE loves more than money is pretending they're not shit

>PC players do actually like games.
Thanks for the laugh, I really needed that.

It's a blunder in terms of quality. People who have played it say it's sort of bad.

>trusting brown people

SE is dead. Deal with it. Last Star Ocean was shit, last main FF was shit, new FF is confirmed shit, Nier 2 will be shit too.

Brown people have low standards, if eve they say it's bad, it's fucking bad.

>meme magic
>on Sup Forums
This place is almost atheist when it comes to kek

Your welcome, atleast you should get a laugh if you cant enjoy any video games.

>Nier 2 will be shit too.
Fortunately SE are barely involved with Nier. If it turns out bad it'll be because of Platinum.

>FF15 is a blunder
KINGDOM HEARTS 3 WINS AGAIN BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>all art and no game

It has more in common with Final Fantasy than you think.

>peoplecwho have played it
Who's that?
