I don't play survival games or early access titles on PC and I've got lots to play, and with this shift in strategy, I'll even have more to play that doesn't fall under those categories.
They even lost their own 1st party partner MLB
no you won't because Sony's AAA blockbusters will no longer be developed if they continue to pursue this strategy
Yeah, this is not a surprising announcement.
Curious how they'll manage that, that's a huge shift in development pipeline for a company that still has trouble with timely ports past their exclusivity windows.
Bold of you to assume a quality PC port from Square Enix.
Funniest thing is Square Enix's best PC ports were from their western gamesand those were done by Nixxes, but they're SIE owned now.

You'd be better off just posting the Twitter post and no adding your worthless commentary.
Considering the exclusivity windows kept getting shorter from FF7Remake --->FFXVI--->FF7Rebirth I think it's pretty safe that SIE saw diminishing returns on the and the bag was getting smaller.
If the bag is getting smaller, than it just makes more financial sense for Square Enix to invest a little bit more in supporting more platforms to get more revenue.
Square just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase FF17 for either system, nor will they purchase any of Square's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.
Square, publicly apologize and cancel multi-platform games for Switch and Xbox, or you can kiss your business goodbye.

it’s over, they just lost their biggest partner in Japan, if FF17 comes day one to Switch… the japanese market is lost forever for PlayStation, some members in this site are completely delusional, PlayStation is dying right in front of our eyes and they somehow think everything is okay
PC dickriders want all these games to come to PC but they dont realise the quality of them will decrease when they go to that platform
AAA blockbusters will decrease decrease until we are left with entirely Early Access and Indie Crap
I don't care about your life. The game ran fine and lol at thinking the PC port will run flawlessly. Square is infamous for horrendous ports that run like trash
This stopped being funny in 2014
They are a publicly shared company and this is a serious mid term plan for them, they won't change it.
You're also going too far.
SE can barely develop for PS5 decently, will be funny to see them releasing games on PC and NS2 day and date
Which is why it's a mid-term goal, it's going to take time.
I assume it's also why they're focusing on internal development at the expense of outsourcing and cancelled quite a bunch of projects a few weeks ago. Stated goals by the CEO is clear, focus on tentpole franchises and putting more resources into them and choose smaller projects with more care.
Basically, they're doing a Capcom.
It never stopped being funny because, while a dramatic thing to say, it has some truth in it. Square died when they put FF on Xbox.
Oh was that a copy pasta that you posted haha my badIt never stopped being funny because, while a dramatic thing to say, it has some truth in it. Square died when they put FF on Xbox.
They have done this before it’s nothing new. They do exclusivity when they financially need it that’s all.
