If Sony actually does want Square, they're going to have to do some housekeeping.

Yup… they only really need the FF14/16 team. That’s quite clear now. The rest of it seems to be a lost cause.

I think Kingdom Hearts team has potential as well.
Apparently switching from Luminous Engine (Same Engine as Forspoken) to UE4 caused some issues.

Edit: People also really like the gameplay for the FF7 remake (myself included). The story changes are just divisive.

Just admit it, you have a fetish for women that use words like cool, awesome and I rock, that tight fitting bracer also helps i bet :love:
Lol nah, SE almost always gets my money is all. SE new IP AAA is a sale for me regardless of what people say honestly.

Which team is making KH4? I'll be quite honest, I was a huge fan of KH1 and 2. But after playing 3 I was very upset. It just didn't have same magic, there was not even an Olympic arena level ;( it just felt like a poor attempt.

I really hope that's not the case for KH4. Glad it's using UE5. Excited too see how it looks as a finished product. FF7 Remake and KH3 switching over to UE4 at the time was the right choice.

Is FF Rebirth UE5 also?

I'm 99% sure it's still UE4.

They haven't said so otherwise and I'll assume its the same since its building directly off of FFVII R.

Just checked. Final game is UE5. Trailer was using UE4. Makes sense because it's very easy to transition from 4 to 5. Thank lord final product is in UE5.

I think Business Unit 1 is doing FF7 Rebirth. Business Unit 3 is doing FF16 and later kh4.

From review scores to seeing which Square teams we would cut for the mythical forthcoming Sony purchase. Love it.

Don’t forget the Dragon Quest team. You know they ain’t going anywhere and are still a prized possession. That and the Ff14 team are cream of the crop.

I'm not sure about any of this, but what I do know is, that shitty dialogue and writing has been in the game for ages, whoever approved that should never be allowed to write for games again.

These things are meant to be researched, who the heck were they targeting?

They were targeting the crowd that demands "representation" but doesn't actually buy anything. You know, the REEEEEEEEEEEEEsetEra crowd.
