The next Final Fantasy. I have not thought about that - cool game to bring up. Personaly, I don't think it will show for a good while. They are in a very tricky position. XV sold much, but was shit. Fans are not going to buy something that looks like XV again, not in those quantities. I know I'm not going to. XIII was even worse, or at least just as bad. XIV is a huge success, but they surely won't do another mmorpg with XVI. And now VIIR is really good, but maybe they were biting off more than they can chew. Fans are gonne be pissed, if the next part of the remake is too small. Same is true, if the next part takes too long. So my money is on them having many, many resources on VIIR part 2, ensuring its scope and timely release, while keeping XVI on the backburner. Perhaps until they figure out how to tell compelling, or at least good, or at least passable storys again. |
Yeah, with how long it has taken them to get their games out in recent years, it doesn't seem likely that we will see FFXVI anytime soon. Unless they decided to go retro and make FFXVI a return-to-form classic using either 16-bit or PSOne graphics. Octopath Traveler did quite well for them (despite it not being completely retro in aesthetic). Final Fantasy used to be known for having bleeding edge cinematics, but I think with the current gaming landscape, a retro FF16 could be welcomed.
