People really think XV will outsell FFVII? I don't see it happening tbh, my guess is around 7m if the reception is good, as mentioned it would have to hit all platforms to hit 10m but on PS4 and X1 I can see around 7m total, 5m on PS4 and 2m on X1.

So, it's going to sell less than FFXIII then?

Yeah that's possible, XIII had a mixed reception after all the hype and the attach rate of X1 is also a factor.

I am very tempted to help them out because I think this Final Fantasy looks cool. It's my first Final Fantasy btw.

True but I think this will be offset IF this game is great like the pre-FFXIII games.



Square-Enix having insane expectations is not surprising at all, but the game's budget seems to be at stratospherical levels so I can see why they'd set such a high expectation.

Tbqh I can't see it doing 10 million unless it releases on PC.

It did, but it also had 3-4 months of bad press and previews leading up to release. So, it's not like that can't happen with FF15, but it wasn't all positive momentum.

Not to mention, people started hyping FFXV the moment that Versus was announced. 

True that. It's quite a different level of anticipation.

I Just know 1 thing, if some game surpass the expactations of Square Enix, so it sold more than GTA V.

So in order to be successful in their eyes it has to become the best-selling Final Fantasy game?

thats actually how capitalism works, you need to keep growing in order pay off the debt which is omnipresent

Considering this game is likely going to be ported to every toaster in the multiverse, it will most likely reach it.

So, how much does it need to sell to get a thread from you?

Below 10millions.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


I think it can happen without it being poreted anywhere else. All it needs is good word of mouth, i think it will get that having played the demo. IMHO i had more funy with that than my entire time playing 13



Updated though. It is just a high end goal.
