and that 300-400k MMO has likely brought in more revenue than any entry in the series. This is why the company makes them.

 

If their making so much money, why havent they released the game outside of Japan? l0l

Because they know it wont be as profitable as you think it would be.

Anyways , I dont care if Squareenix is profitable or not. If they were to close down today - boo hoo - moving on.

I want single player games , not MMOs. If they make just MMOs, so be it - they wont get my business and surely wont get the business from the majority of people who actually bought their games.

Oh and incase you were wondering, this thread title is saying DQXI is going to be a offline RPG - not a MMO. Guess they dont want to make money eh?

Edited for Rated E :P


Damn the salt is real in this post. It's all about diversity and making new fans. Single player titles are very important, but that MMO makes a lot more money than you think it does. Take a look at their financials. You don't care about the company being proftable, but you want more of their titles. Okay that's the definition of hypocrite and a consumer I wouldn't give two flying pigs about.

Of course salt is real but I prefer pepper myself to be honest since I consume less salt in my diet.

Of course I dont care if a company is being profitable because they aint payin me - if more titles come by , thats fine but if it doesnt , thats fine too because you know, SE isnt the only company that makes games and I play other RPGs - just not Final Fantasy.

Yes, I'm a consumer and I'm damn proud of it - better than being a fanboy who cares about bunch of suits getting money and fapping at numbers ;p.


I actually think Dragon Quest is a low quality series, and i'm not a fan. However, from a monetary perspective the numbers don't lie.

Care for attempt #3?

Oh and another thing, no offense to anyone but that whole "we Nintendo fans supported XY on the Nintendo handhelds, so why do they fuck us over by not giving our home console the new game in the series"-thing really does not work whatsoever. The Nintendo handheld fanbase is vastly bigger than their home console base and is next to Nintendo console owners comprised of tons of people that don't own a Nintendo home console and instead own a different brand of home console or non at all.

You are correct.

But KH3 would have sold better on Wii U than on Xbox One. Xbox One owners won't pick up that game, I bet my apartment on it. There is no reason for Square Enix to release KH3 on Xbox One and skip Wii U.

JRPGs with mainstream hype will sell enough on Xbox to justify a port. Also Xbox one will have around 20-30m consoles sold by the time KH3 comes out, too much for SE to ignore for a mainstream appeal game like Kingdom Hearts.
