| Turkish said: Japan has no taste and hasn't been a trendsetter since the PS2. If they rather play their gacha games then that's their loss. Game is amazing, nice blend of Western and Japanese design. Hope the new emerging Asian markets can offset the disinterest in Japan. Tabata should make a small XV-2 with new characters (Stella etc?) while Ito works on XVI. |
I think you're looking at it wrong. FF is a fanbase and in recent years they've been treated to some poor experiences. Even in the west the respect for the franchise has shot down, as has its critical reception.
Although I love FFXII, since then the franchise has gone from its usual creative risks with the world and slight changes to the battle system, to becoming something that should essentially be a different franchise. I think they were on the right track with "versus"
Have one game that has boundaries in terms of what it can do (versus) and another which treats the series core foundations with a bit more respect (like Zelda)
