| ZODIARKrebirth said: i remember the time where square enix was still called Squaresoft, before they teamed up with enix. in this time the pruduced one jrpg hit after other...remember games like crono trigger, secret of mana, final fantasy, vagrant story, xenogears, crono cross, dragon quest, threads of fate, parasite eve, radiata stories, valkyrie profile, grandia, kingdom hearts, star ocean...as jrpg lover it wasn't even necessary to wait for a review (it's my opinion), and you knew already you would buy a game what you will enjoy, because it's from SQAURE ENIX, but then with the the generation of ps3/xbox this changed...something has gone wrong, but why? |
The bolded were not published by Squaresoft.
Anyway, Square-Enix is more focused on making technically impressive cinematic experiences than fun games, but failed at doing even that because their proprietary engines were failures (until recently.) Excepting the Enix-side of things. Dragon Quest has retained its quality, but it is Dragon Quest after-all, that is a safety net.
Also I think Square let a lot of their talent leave the company to start their own stuff.
