Final Fantasy XVI sales in line with expectations
- Thread starter Darth Vader
- Start date
Thanks for the document.
First it was not Takashi Mochizuki... he did not attended the Q&A.
The claim come from these that attended the Q&A (Mochizuki made the using others claims that attended the Q&A).
Second that transcript is not the full Q&A... it is edited by Square Enix and missing a lot of things from the real Q&A from Kyriu... they even condensed two question in one... there is a question and a lot of talk about the FFXVI's expectations and another one with what Square Enix plans to do to increase sales.
They talked that they reached the low end of their expectations with FFXVI sales (it is the first time they talk about low-end and high-end expectations so it feels like a spin imo) and how they will do several actions to try to increase it sales.
The issue is not the initial shipment considered low to the franchise.
But the fact the after that the sales dropped a lot in all regions.
For comparisons others 3M initial shipments games where already at 5 million shipped after 3 months while FFXVI didn't have any new milestone in 3 months.
Big discounts happened for two weeks up to 30% at retail and digital.
Announces of DLCs and free stuffs...
They are taking the actions like they said let's see if it will help.
The only fact we have right now is that the sales (before these actions) where not good for a FF game... we have data and charts showing that.
We don't have still any data showing their last promotions increased sales yet.

Just give up dude. So much nonsense comes from your finger is just insane. Ffxvi sold half of ff7 remake lifetime sales in a week. Just admit you were wrong and move in instead of double down this nonsense
Just facts.
BTW you are wrong... FXXVI didn't come close to sell half of FF7VII remake 7 million lifetime sales in a week lol
It shipped 3 million that is lower than half and so say a lot about sold lol
And it was not you that I linked several sources in another thread?
Less than a week. It charted this month on npd. Is in the the top 20 of the year. It sold a lot in Japan compared to other Sony games . Stop embarrassing yourself. You are wring deal with it
It is still behind Dead Island 2... less than 1 million in NPD for a FF game.... on the August chart even games released two years ago is selling better
Sold a lot in Japan? What? Japan it is where it more failed to sell... less than half of the worst seller FFs.
It is too much delusion... OMG.

This post just proves that you are incapable of admitting you're wrong. Holy fuckballs.

Facts are it didn't underperform and the journalist lied. Period. Undisputable fact.
In your mind yes... we have actual data showing the opposite including Square Enix own shipment.

What do you mean for a final fantasy game? How many ff games sold 10mil copies. Go on I'll waitIt is still behind Dead Island 2... less than 1 million in NPD for a FF game.... on the August chart even games released two years ago is selling better

good riddance!!!!
Actually this gif fit perfectly.As predicted.
People are beliving in what they wish instead the data we have.
He's really trying to paint ffxvi a failure for some reason. It's square if a game underperform they will say it
What data we have? We only see you talking nonsense with nothing to back up
