| StarOcean said: FF, as of the past few entries has been increasingly liked by the west. I dont think SE cares what Japan thinks of the game |
/Donald Trump: "Wrong"
This is the excuse movie studios say when a movie badly underperforms their expectations in the US.
Under 900k opening in Japan for a Final Fantasy game is like a main line Star Wars opening to only $30-$40 million in the US. That would be a disaster. Square-Enix execs are gutted by this. No doubt about it, it will definitely also impact the budget of Final Fantasy XVI, I have little doubt.
The days of Square's dev team getting any amount of money and time to make a Final Fantasy game are likely coming to an end.
