Corrected the title, even the source article mentions shipments. Also gives me justification to lock some dupes, yay!

Meanwhile Sun/Moons first week was 12m. Yet we keep being told that turn based RPGs are dead and action is the only thing that sells now. The facts say otherwise...

There's obviously a huge turn-based games fanbase. I wonder how long will take SE to notice that. I think a turn based FF would do fairly well... FFXV combat system is just a huge mess.

Bravely Default, Dragon Quest, I am Setsuna.

It's not like they aren't making them at all. 

But if you really think Pokemon is a good indicator for potential buyers of a turn based RPG in a different franchise on a completely different console aimed at different markets than you need to stop letting your bias get in the way.



If this game isn't 10/10, I don't know which game is. People voted and reviewed with their wallet.

Shipped=Sold-in=/=soldthrough but since it have digital sales and sold to retailers there is no issue reporting it like that in here where we do know the difference.

I'm still to pick my copy, how are you liking it so far? Playing on X1 or PS4? In PS4 those problems reported by DF are really an issue or just a small nuisance?

Oh that. It's on par with other games from big franchises.



Shit I better stop now or else they'll cop I'm an alt of kapi. I also need to keep my inner monologues inside.

AAAAAAANYWAY..... Fantastic shipment numbers. They'll sell it all and they'll ship more. Reviews and player feedback is very positive. Digital sales I'd imagine are good.

When all is said and done they'll likely beat their 10m target easily. Pc release I'd say in the next 2 years, digital discounts and probably a future ps5 release. FF has a future!

When literally the 2nd post is wondering which it is I`m not so sure that`s true. Some clarification can`t hurt

Sure, clarification is good and there are always people that doesn't know.

But no need for attacks on OP.
