| Zim said: Square really need to do something about their development cycles. I have started to wonder if this game will even get released and still be relevant. The danger for it is that it takes too long to get released and we have the Wii U out and Xbox next/PS4 being shown and suddenly the graphics look very underwhelming. If it doesn't make it out by xmas this year then it could end up being like ff12 where it's very underrated for what it is. I mean to put things in context all 3 mass effect games will have been released before this game makes it out. 5 Ac games will have been put out etc etc. It seems like we will get FF13, 13-2, Versus and possibly ff14 at some point for the entire generation. Whereas the PS2 had 10, 10-2, Dirge of Cerberus, 12 and ff11 + it's 3-4 add ons. Although to put things in context for you guys. I've been waiting for Dungeon Keeper 3 since 1999. It was announced with a full on trailer included with the second game, then cancelled and seemingly never picked up. Someday I hope to get to play it.... someday. |
+1 Square-enix's development cycle is complete trash this generation. Showing them off so early is what turning so many people off. It literally 6 years coming and no release date yet for V13.
FF13 can't even compare to the game you've listed. For 4 years the game literally has no side quest/mission/mini-games and was just 1 straight "line".
Sure it looked good, but as you stated other developers had created a "series" of their games.
It's sad very sad indeed.
