Final Fantasy XV has bombed

Final Fantasy XV has bombed.

I swear this is the only place people still cares about Japanese video game sales

resetera

Looking forward to windows edition, honestly.

ok 2 but that's not really an improvement.

because it's hot J-Pop feces with twink faggot dick suckers as protagonists. People want traditional old school jrpgs, which Dragon Quest shows again and again.

Wasn't it already said that the majority of the FF Fans in Nihon-land hate FFXV because its not turn based combat?

mainline FF games haven't had turn-based combat since X

>FF fans not knowing what good gameplay looks like
why does that not surprise me one fucking bit

If it bombed, I don't think they would have printed more copies to sit on store shelves. The games has sold ~7 million copies in total, which seems pretty decent to me.

In fact, only four Final Fantasy games have actually been turn based.

And those are the only good ones

>re-release game
>try to get rid of leftover stock before it hits
>this is somehow weird and confusing

Wait, Hasn't this game been out for like 2 years already?

Am I fucking losing my mind or something? This already came out a long time ago right?

>site created to discuss Japanese media cares about Japanese media sales
Wow, who would have fucking thought?!

Who cares, Final Fantasy is garbage.

II is over shadowed by the Mana series and IV, and III was made irrelevant by V. I'll give you I and X, as they're probably the best in the series at what they try to do (Granted, I is unique in the series, and X is only similar to XIII, but they're still good games).

But FFXV deserved to bomb, Tabata was a mistake

>muh globalism why aren't you americans?

...

You faggots better buy Octopath Travelers.

>bombed
>they just announced the royal edition yesterday with a good amount of new content in it

out with the old, in with the new.

That game is fucking hideous, so no. I won't be buying it.

Jesus fucking Christ. Fuck off and never talk to me ever again.

i would buy it if they fucking tone down all that unnecessary bloom. its just so ugly to look at which is a shame because the demo was pretty fun.

as shit as the game is, it isn't bombing, this thing has something like TWO season passes, and just yesterday a ROYAL edition, its like the SUPER, SUPER goty edition, with all not one, but BOTH season fucking passes, that's how far we've gone with dlc

remember when it was "wow dlc is cancer" now we preorder it was season passes, only for devs to announce ANOTHER season pass

this shit is selling gangbusters. for w/e reason, these horrific shitty practices are being rewarded, it's like people want to be scammed silly

looks terrible, and this is coming from a hardcore switchboy, game just doesn't look nice at all

I know what they're going for, but it doesn't work

>complete edition/royal edition JUST annoucned
Yeah no shit, vanilla game is kind of useless now.
I loved it on launch but the "complete" version will become the defacto way to play it

>We exist in a gaming timeline in which if you were to buy this game now, with the ROYAL edition being announced yesterday, you're unronically getting 40% of agame, of an ALREADY unfinished game

>still getting support two years later
>another edition literally announced this morning

How much denial do you have to be at this point?

>complete edition
Doesn't include future DLC and the second season pass

They weren't crappy action games like little kids on Sup Forums all want. Fuck there is nothing better than a comfy turn based RPG where you can relax and drink some tea while you play. Action shit is for multiplayer games, but who am I kidding Sup Forums would just rage fighting against anything except a computer opponent specifically designed to lose to them. The amount of low skill faggots who think they are the epitome of skill on this board are pathetic.

I hope this won't become a trend for FF. We already have enough early access games

>VIIR already confirmed to be episodic
Just get out of the FF boat if you don't want to deal with square

Wait there's gonna be more? What's the point of this verison then? I wasn't gonna buy it YET but, fuck, when is it done? I really enjoyed Vanilla 15 but haven't bought a bit of DLC because I'm waiting for it to be "done"

>having to release the same game over and over again to recoup costs
>denial

I really don't see what they were thinking with this. FF7 isn't that "big" of a game in comparison to newer stuff. A remake that is at least as good as the original with jazzed up graphics is all people really want.
It worked just fine for Crash, why is Square so retarded sometimes

FF15: ROYAL NOCTIS PRINCE BLAZE EDITION:TRUE COMPLETE

No way they could do it. Back with crappy graphics it was much easier. Now that everyone wants everything slick and cool its a massive undertaking.

>Pixelshit Cringelers
nah

It sold 7 mil and probably will end up selling 9 with all the upcoming editions. That's not counting DLC sales. It's the most successful FF title yet.

>Hitman and Deus Ex both died for this

But the costs for marketing and development were enormous. I can't say if the game did ok or not profits wise, but we gotta look at more than just sheer numbers.

As opposed to low key marketing and short development of 12 and 13? We can't really tell if 15 made a lot of money, but it sold well. And we don't know shit about the tie-in products, there's a ton of those and most of the money is probably coming from them.

Hitman and Deus Ex killed themselves by their own stupid design

>pixelshit with a horrendous filter that looks taken out of a shitty skyrim top 10 enb list

It's coming to PC, only poorfag morons would still buy it for consoles

Ew gross, I don't want 60 gigabytes of trash on my pc

Basically what this amounts to is that FFXV was very much an early access game.

*150

>2 years later and PC friends STILL don't have FFXV
>consoles already got Dissidia while PC hasn't
>consoles will get MHW before PC gets FFXV
>PC will have to wait until the end of the year for MHW
>at least PC will play the yearly asscreed, cawascooby, and other assorted white shaming western games better than consoles

PC gaming is a fucking meme.

platform warriors are a meme,fuck off fag not gettin' a (You) from me

>all male main cast
>only one potential "waifu" and she's a tomboy

I wonder why? I don't how Square has somehow lost their way so much. If you aren't pandering to people's dicks in JRPGS you are doing something wrong. Every game needs a moe, a tsundere, a loli, and a knockout 10/10 supermodel type to appeal to the widest audience. Who the fuck though a 4 man boyband was going to sell AT ALL?

Hasn't FFXV sold more than any Japanese waifu game?

It came out just over a year ago.

I got it for £10 off Amazon in July.

It sold relatively to its marketing budget.

>games get re-released because the publisher needs to recoup production costs and not because they already made their money back and know that there's still a lot of milk in that tit
