| bunchanumbers said: I think they wasted too much time and money on this. Not just with the game itself, but they made the Luminous engine which is already outclassed by easier engines. Who knows if the engine SE made will even work on the underpowered Tegra that is in Switch. FFXV will be considered a costly lesson. If there is a FFXVI it won't take a decade. But it will be will most likely be made using a better engine. |
It will likely be made on Unreal Engine 4, just like FF7 Remake apparently is, and it'll probably be made to accomodate the Switch as well as a PS4.
Sony has failed to revive the market in Japan. Only Nintendo has a chance now, and with weak XBox sales outside the West, they can't rely on MS as the second option.
Like it or not, Japanese developers have to take Nintendo more seriously, perhaps even to the point of building their games first on Switch. You can always up the resolution/effects for a PS4 easily enough, but you can't afford to lose the potential sales and audience on Switch.
Switch will outsell the PS4 in Japan very quickly.
