Switching engines is not what I want to be hearing at this point. Stop fucking around SE.


Fucking around would be continuing to get what is probably a dead-end engine working when it can't. Nomura being taken off FF XV and KH3 switching to UE4 (it's not like they're switching engines on a whim) is showing that SE is trying to get shit done.

Exactly.

Originally, KH3 was supposed to build off of FFXV, which was another reason Toriyama was on it. But these change mean that things are actually happening and speeding up.

And hell, we've already waited like 8+ years whats 5 more?

Awesome! This game is going to be mind-blowing, and I am more excited for it than for anything else in gaming.

Square Enix's two attempts at building a proprietary company-wide engine have failed. While they have great technology, they fail to make their engines usable. FFXV is using Luminous because it was already developed that way, but it's only happening that way because SE rolled the entire Luminous staff into the FFXV team.

KHIII has the fortunate of being able to do an engine switch, and so they're going to be improving/modifying Unreal Engine 4 for their "Kingdom Shader" utilities.



These guys are worse than Nintendo...



Time to add another 4 years to development time!

This statement couldn't be anymore farther from the truth. It's sad really when a former SE fanboy like myself can't do any sort of damage control here ...

Wait, so you're saying they are or are not worse than Nintendo in terms of taking forever to deliver their games?



My head. This is the second time! Cause you know, it worked out so well the first time (FF XIII). I don't even have words for Square Enix right now.

You mean squaresoft, right?



I thought SE made their own engines. I wonder why they're using Unreal..
