| makingmusic476 said: Like I said in another thread, the game being "smaller than Lost Odyssey" (seriously, does that even matter? =/) probably has to do with Microsoft's licensing fees per disc. It's no surprise that the only 4-disc 360 game was published by Microsoft, thus negating the licensing fee. The first 3-disc game was also published by Microsoft (Blue Dragon) and there has thus far been only one other 3-disc game (Star Ocean 4). |
There is no licensing fee per disk. There never has been, and there never will be. The quote was mis-intepretated, and has been clarified many, many, many times now. There is extra cost to using the third disc due to manufacturing only. There is no extra licensing fee for more discs.
A more rational interpretation would be that you have to swap discs after going so far in the story. The same way almost every single JRPG has done since the concept first came about.
Bitter fanboy tears make me smile. Keep on raging guys.
