Ugh, just add him to the FFXV staff and we'll have a great game!

No, thank you. Instead, give Ito his own team and a massive budget for FFXVI. Also, get Matsuno to freelance write the scenario. That would lead to an amazing FF game.

I find it interesting how you seem to prefer Matsuno over Nojima :P but It'll probably take years until we get FFXV, let alone XVI. Who knows whether Square would even be alive then? LOL.

I'm not found of Nojima. His stories are too nonsensical for my tastes. Anyway, I'm expecting FFXV to be released in 2015. FFXVI will be announced at E3 2015 and released in 2017.

I don't think we'll ever get FFXVI before 2020 since I'm hearing FFXV may get its own sequels much like FFXIII. Hopefully that's not going to happen.

We got FFXIII (and its sequels) and FFXIV on PS3. I think that PS4/XB1 can be FFXV (and its sequels) and FFXVI.

Bumping for more views and opinions.

I'd be surprised if SquEnix weren't currently making FFXVI and FFXVII, they need to get back to a 2 year cycle for these games. We had 1 main series title for the entire last generation (not MMO) and 2 in the last 10 years. That's sad.

If he directs any, it's a step in the right direction. Motomu Toriyama should not be allowed to do one again. I want steam punk back.



Hmm, pie.

I just hope that Ito goes all out with FFXVI. If the game sells many copies and gets a lot of critical acclaim, it will make it more likely that SQEX will choose him to direct more future mainline FF games. They'll choose him over Kitase/Toriyama.

The only thing in your whole Op that mattered was Hironobbu Sakaguchi told you hed make the series great again.

That is all that matters. Hironobu Sakaguchi is why FF was great and why it isnt now.

Hmmm I may just give FF one more chance if he takes the riegns.

I think Square need to focus in FFvXIII... ops... FFVX first... trying to work in more than one FF at the same time is not going right for them.

Yeah, as long as Sakaguchi believes in him, that's all that matters.
