im quite suprised how many people agree on the decline in square enix games quality..its just sad that last decent current gen game was the world ends with you for the ds

they should just take a break from the final fantasy games and focus on the other franchises they have ..and they cant argue that ff is all the people want and that other franchises cant be (re)established .

any game that has a square logo on the cover just has to be good.. at least thats how it used to be ..and its only because they overdid it with ff games that its not longer like that

 

Well, they've purchased Eidos now so good luck with the square logo thingy. FF games are the only ones that still hold my faith in square-enix and it's mainly because of a select few devs not S-E as a whole anymore when those become "made for the west", I can wipe my hands and stick to the SMT games.

There's a reason Persona 4 is the highest rated Japanese RPG of recent by both fans and critics. It's simple: it was made with a Japanese soul not sugar-coated "to appeal to the west". This is why we love the game. Many Japanese devs are forgetting this.

There is also a reason why it sells so little in the West and why Atlus is about to post huge losses.
