Final Fantasy XVI flopped extraordinary on PC. It sold since launch only 280k copies on PC
- Thread starter Eternal_Wings
- Start date
I can't find those posters in this thread, that kept telling us: "square enix is missing revenue by neglecting pc and xbox"
Cool. PCMR proving they don't deserve our games.
These warriors are DSM V material. Judging by how square stocks plummeted they need all the money they can get. As any sane third party would.
Does IconERA own Square Enix? That's the only way your post make any logical sense.
3 million shipped is the last official number.
No milestone after.
And to be fair even if it reaches 5 million shipment this year it will be still very bad for a FF mainline game sales wise.

Studios and games can make money whether being exclusive or multiplatform, has done for decades.
This talk that games are doomed if they are Playstation or Nintendo exclusive is nonsense, and was made up since Xbox started porting games on PC and then Multiplatform.
Now see someone suggest Total War should have a console port and the replies will be it wont help the franchise if it goes multiplatform…

Mindset is different for PC gamers, most would answer that as long as it does not impact the PC version, why not??
You can play civilization and x com on consoles these days.
Yes, shouldn't impact a PC version if done properly. But its not encouraged at all but only the opposite
how is it bombed?
i was told here, that it is FREE money on the table. so amazing ROI for SE.

If square enix think 3 million is failure what do they think of this
Also we need a new update those 3 million numbers are opening month should be much higher by now

It's not 3m. It would be strange if it didn't sold at all. According to Vgchartz and Famitsu counted units so far exceeded 5m. It makes no sense otherwise. Lifetime sales are 5m according to named websites.
Elden Ring has most of it's players on PC. Your argument holds ZERO water.
PC gamers want real games, not games pretending to be other games. Case in Point, if Squeenix made a real Final Fantasy it would sell well. But they keep trying to make shit action games all in hopes of attaining ALL the money, but they seem to be trying to westernize too much and fail at exploiting what made them great in the first place all those years ago. Let them die, there's devs and studios who can and ARE doing what Square use to do, make great Jrpgs.

The hilarity of thinking a simultaneous multiplatform release doesn't affect development in some way.
