Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.
Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.
Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.
Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.
Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.
TBH Making the game into one console will always be the best choice since they can put all their time learning and optimizing it on that particular console. However, nowadays the cost of making these games even EXCEED the cost of making blockbuster movies! It's just suicide if a developer release their games only on one console unless they got the back up of the publisher(ie sony, ms and nin).
All in all, companies need to make money first and foremost in order to survive. We can't blame SE in this case as it's the most obvious choice.
All i care about is the fact that its coming. The idea that people on other consoles will get to experience it is ok with me. They can take all the time they need to get it looking amazing.
PS4 and Xbox1 are basically the same, both have lots of Ram, bluray and share the same architecture. I don't think there will ever be issues with multiplats again. No issues related to performance or games having to be cut-down because they don't fit in a couple of DVD9 compared to a dual-layer bluray disc and stuff.
If the game was still on PS3 and announced as a multiplat then I'd be pissed.
as long as the gameplay and story is good I have no problems.
its not like it matters, everyone buys these type of games only for playstation since they are commonly associated with playstation brand like metal gear, resident evil, tekken etc. i mean look a FFXIII while the game did suck the sales of the PS3 version when compared to the 360 version is such a wide gap it might as well been considered exclusive anyway.
