They basically need to figure out whether or not they even want to finance part 3. Sure some fans wouldn't like it if Square decides part 3 doesn't get made. But not a whole lot of people will buy it anyways. Even with Xbox and PC day one I don't see it selling all that well. And the costs of part 3 will be even greater than part 2. Making a game that costs around 150 million to make to only sell 5 million copies and not all at full price, isn't a very wise strategy from a financial point of view. Especially since 30% of the revenue goes to PS, Xbox and Steam. |
I do think they should still make the last part since it being the last should mean it'll sell better than Rebirth and the trilogy concluding will boost the sales of the other two. Though after this and FF16 there's surely gonna be internal discussions going on about decreasing the scope of it to lower the budget.
