Final Fantasy Type-0 HD coming to PS4/Xbox One (no Vita), Agito coming too (iOS/And)

:lol :lol

Even with the great news us Vita owners get unintentionally kicked in the balls again.

I'm not sure of that. I believe SCEA's blog staff have control over the titles. We've seen incorrect platform listings in the past. I remember a couple of Aksys games that were PS3/Vita only mentioned PS3 in the title before being corrected afterwards. I guess SCEA's person wasn't given a title from SE, read the body (which never mentioned a platform) and assumed it would be on Vita.

The way it works is that you send them the post text and art, and they set it all up. You never get to directly edit the content yourself, just reply to comments with a red BG.

So what they put up is what Square told them right?
 
What the hell is wrong with square? The more vocal about this game are Vita owners. Fine, put it on the next gen consoles but don't be such an asshole and say that you did it because of the requests by the west and not put it on Vita.

Do you take pleasure on pissing off your audience? What a horrible company, it's good that your finances show how poorly run SE is.
 
Was going to buy on PS4 anyway, but man.

If you want the context of the gif: it's from the german political satire show "Heute Show" where they send the journalist to the party conference of a small party (FDP) they wanted to see fail at a local election... and then they didn't fail.

Thanks.

Then why not mention the PS4 release? The Ps4 has better priority than the Vita, even cross platform wise.
 
Vita means suffering.

Good that I slept through the initial announcement and subsequent clarification. I'll probably buy a PS4 sometime down the line and this game, but if it gets a physical release you can bet I'll buy it used with a passive-aggressive smirk on my face. u_u

The funny thing about the screenshot is that Japan will most likely get the HD version before the West. lol.

This is the same company that promised, year after year, that FFXIII was exclusive to the PS3, and tricked legions of fans into paying $600 for a machine back in 2006 only for it to go multi-plat in 2009.

This is the same company that showed off FFXIII Versus back in 2006 and eight years later we don't even have a release date in sight.

This is the same company that took 3 years to do a PS2 port from 2001.

This is the same company that made not one, but TWO sequels no one asked for, to a game no one liked.

This is the same company that remade FFVI 20 years later, on mobile phones with RPGmaker level graphics.

This is the same company that showed up at the PS4 reveal and their presentation was "please be excited."


The only thing I'm surprised at are the Vita fans who didn't see any of this coming.

Sigh. Just because you didn't like FF13 did not mean the other 6 million who bought the game didn't. SE has said that FFx-2 and LR were experiments to make more timely games with better developmental control and unused assets. They succeeded and some liked them, some didn't. The hyperbole from some fans is so ridiculous.

After reading this thread I feel really sad for Vit aowners. Goddamn Square fucked this up.
Click to expand...

No, not really. You know how Square could have really fucked up? Never releasing Type-0 in the west at all, which is where we were all at when we woke up this morning.

I'm way happier that we're getting Type-0 in the west on ANY platform than I could be bummed about not getting it on Vita.

Priority #1 should be getting Type-0 at all in the West, followed by a long second on what platform it releases for.

Because I imagine he actually pushed for it, had a good idea of a Vita version being tested and A SQUARE ENIX REP CONFIRMING IT in the blog.

I don't actually know how the PS blogs work, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me if all the Square Enix producer did was write the body text of that post. I don't think the people who run the blog are in the habit of letting random PR people have publishing rights on their blogs, and chances are it's PS blog staffers who wrote the original headline. But I could totally be wrong on that--I know some GAFfers have posted to the PS blog before so they'd be the ones who would know definitively. (I don't actually expect any of them to wade into this mess, though.)

I own a PS4 and I'm still somehow disappointed. I was looking forward to it on Vita and got really excited about the initial announcement. Then they LITERALLY just cut out Vita and pasted PS4 in the same place and said "Nah fuck the Vita." I've never been so happy and so disappointed at the same time in a while.

Type-0 should have come way before they greenlighted a second Lightning sequel

It still is embarrasing for Sony even if it was a S-E fuck up. With the twitter tag and all.

Sony will show how #4DAPLAYERS they are now footing the bill for the Vita version, right?

If Vita was selling well yes, but since it's not Sony is happy enough to get it for PS4

So you'd be ok if it got release over here as an IOS title?

When doing a post you have full editing option. When the community reps themselves do the posting its usually without the presence(mail/talks/Skype/wtf) of said products rep. And Minamida usually does them himself and responds to queries.

But yes, in this busy time its more than possible that they just got a mail saying what to post. Still wouldn't explain why they pinned it to Vita when they usually just say PSN when the platform isn't known.
 
Oh come on SE! Get your shit together! Now I have to buy a PS4. I still love you my Vita. We still have lots of other games. :-(

This is something ONLY Square Enix could do, congrats. I will never buy it even if I do plan to buy a PS4.

PSP it is, then.
Click to expand...

Okay, now that's just silly. I thought you were going to say you would not buy it now, but you still are... so why, if and when you get a PS4, would you still get the PSP version? Do you prefer this on a handheld?
 
Wereroku said:

Yes, but they usually edit as they post. So it's possible SCEA got something wrong with the editing.

Like, every blog post I've done has had some editing, and I don't think they've ever used the title I've provided.
 
I really do have to laugh when I think of the irony in the situation. Next stop, FFXII International edition for the 3DS!
Don't ban me, I'm kidding.
 
I guess looks at the bright side? If you have a PS4 at least there's remote play for Vita. It's probably not worth dedicating the resources to coding specifically to Vita at this point.

Fair. I'm just pissed that people are pretty quick in make this stuff a console war drivel or shitting in dudes they don't like.
 
I think they figured they'd tackle the Vita version with Remote Play.

I can deal. I'm glad we're getting it at all. I just hope it's sooner than later.
 
At least we're getting the game at all.

Play it remote play if not having it on Vita really bothers everyone so much.

The meltdowns here are why we can't have nice things.

But that will just make weirder the fact that they believed that was coming to Vita when the PS4 would have make top priority in a blog post.
