Rumor: FF9 Remake is cross-platform and “Not very ambitious”

Why wouldn't people complain about getting a watered down, wannabe MMO game in a series that was anything but that? So instead of getting a proper FF game after people complained, we got a worse version of it. The series went downhill with XII.


So called MMO wannabe XII is better than the crap we got after it.

People complained and got worse.

Be careful what you wish for.

The reviews don’t lie.

FF7 Rebirth is the only 90+ reviewed FF since FFXII and even that is a remake not a new entry.

It’s the only one since Sakaguchi left after FF10.

Says it all really.

Just want Square to do a XIII trilogy remaster next
I wouldnt mind a 13 remaster if they added some cutscenes explaining its lore which is apparently pretty good. . Heck id take the Hi res pictures that moves like the Elden Ring intro, just flesh out the story some.

I never said the games we got after it are better. Are you intentionally trying to make shit up to to create an argument?

So now people that complained about stuff they don't like are at fault for getting an even worse product? Holy shit do you hear yourself? What kind of an argument is that?

Maybe they wanted a better product instead of a worse one?

You mean the same metacritic scores that put FF9 ahead of 7? You're basing your opinion on that? I'm basing mine on the fact that I played through these games and FFXII is where the series fell off. Not surprising, since it started development as an online game and then later shifted focus to single player.

That's what got us bland locations, towns, MMO-like gameplay and an overall shift for the worse. The series has been on the quality decline starting with that game and only started picking up quality wise with the remake.

Also, XIII sold better than XII. By about 4 million. I guess XIII is the better game, right? After all, the sales say so. You're throwing numbers around and they don't exactly work for you in this case.

Reviews don’t work?

The only Mainline FF since FF10 and Sakaguchi leaving is FF12. Rebirth is a remake and doesn’t really count.

On what planet do sales determine the quality of a game and not reviews?

Behave.

The best FF game and one of the best games of all time. I hope its like the fan made passion project and not HD2D, though I wouldn't mind HD2D.

FF7 Remake and Rebirth are amazing, but we never need a 12+ year cycle remake ever again.

#1, even, but only a few people know the truth.
I think 6 and 12 are the best overall. 7 is good and has plenty of charm, but the fact that the original 7 was basically a dumbed down "redux" of 6 (way too many 1:1 elements that overlap, and the general story is nearly identical) that was entirely focused on the production values, and less so the gameplay, storytelling, and characters, ranks it lower. And the fact Remake and Rebirth pooped all over the original makes me not care about those.

The best FF game and one of the best games of all time. I hope it's like the fan made passion project and not HD2D, though I wouldn't mind HD2D.

This would be an absolutely perfect way to remake this game. And it won't happen.

The whole FF XI to FF XV was a struggle for Square because they had to move from pre rendered towns and environment to HD towns in the ps 3 and 4 gen. After 15 the FF series seems to atleast have got their mojo back. Also all FF 13 games are not bad, Lightning Returns is pretty good and 13 is very popular in Japan

I'm willing to put it at #2 as FF X is interchangeable but nothing will ever dethrone FF-IX :cool:

Wow the fact we share the same opinion on something other than Jim Ryan and Hermen lol

They should make the graphics like the last dragon quest or similar to the fan made project. It doesnt need to be FF7 standards.

But I dont want a chibi bs remake

Xbox fanboys tried to twist his words, he said it was multiplat and they immediately jumped to the conclusion that Square is done working with Sony because ff16 and ff7 rebirth "flopped"

meant more they have a plan for exclusive games

wonder whats coming next then:unsure:

Oh, definitely the FF7 Remake trilogy final game, but that's probably not till PS6.


thought that was already a given tbh cause they definitely signed a 3 year deal

wonder if they mean KH4, FF17 or a new project
