[Shahed]

I'm not surprised and for some strange reason I find myself not caring. Maybe it's because I'd already accepted this as an inevitability

 

[Eidan]

Square can't hurt me anymore.

 

[Aussie Legend]

Fuck you Square Enix, shitting on Squaresoft's legacy with this garbage.

 

[Nosgoroth]

No. Nonononono. If you're going to do this, do it PROPERLY, Squenix. Or at least half-ass it. Don't go putting effort into breaking it and pissing off your fanbase even more.

If this is your new direction you should have your GPS looked at.

 

[MoogleWizard]

Sounds like they're just trying to make the graphics sharper and changing some menu stuff for the touch screen. Not exactly a remake, more like the same as their other terrible iOS ports.

 

[Brainiac 8]

If it ends up getting that hideous rpg maker aesthetic they've been doing... *shudders*

This is what I was thinking. That art style they put in all their ios/mobile games is horrible.

 

[Ludist210]

Wait...so they made the game easier? By taking out grinding because people complained? It's a freaking RPG!

Way to ruin the last ounce of respect I had for you, Square Enix. You were my favorite game company once upon a time.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I wish I could say I am surprised, but we all knew this was coming.

Doesn't hurt any less, though.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

The graphics, he said, will be refined for cellphones. They'll still be 2D but sharpened, a la the recent mobile release of V.

and now for the FF7

Spoiler

iOS

remake you've all been waiting for

 

[Zee-Row]

I'm not paying $700 for a phone to play a remake of FFVI.

 

[Morfeo]

Seriously Square Enix, SERIOUSLY? Im fine with them releasing this on phones, but why cant they at least include 3DS and Vita?

 

[Jb]

Would it kill Squeenix to port it to 3DS and/or VIta? You'd think most of the audience for a remake of FF6 would more likely buy it on these platforms.

 

[kadotsu]

 

[chaosblade]

An unfortunate fate befalls another Squaresoft classic. Their current output is terrible so I guess they have to ruin their good ol' games too.

Can't say I expected any less at this point though.

 

[Grisby]

Ha ha ha ha.

 

[Mr.Ock]

There's not even a point in getting angry anymore. Who cares? We were all expecting this, after all

 

[jett]

Squeenix has done a great job at making me not give a fuck about their company.

 

[Aeana]

Seriously Square Enix, SERIOUSLY? Im fine with them releasing this on phones, but why cant they at least include 3DS and Vita?

You're probably not going to want it once you see it.

 

[HolyBaikal]

Oh goodness.

I anticipate a lot of upset people.

 

[Tybolt]

Who the fuck had to grind in FFVI?!

I don't think anyone did because of the atrocious encounter rate.

 

[antitrop]

This thread needs some mood music.

You've been playing too much GTA V.

 

[MechaX]

Well... This was to be expected, but it might not be so bad if they don't have it look like the FFV iO-

They'll still be 2D but sharpened, a la the recent mobile release of V.

NO NO NO NO NO NO

 

[Asd202]

Damn I really hoped for 3DS remkae of FF VI guess it was never meant to be .

 

[Deleted member 17706]

The visuals in V were an abomination.

"the battle systems have been adjusted so you don't have to fight as much and can enjoy the game for what it is."

I bet this quote means that they'll just offer level ups for a small fee or some shit.

 

[Firehead]

Godfuckingdammit. NO!

 

[jackal27]

SOMEONE JUST KILL ME PLEASE.

 

[Timeaisis]

Just trying to milk their past however long they can.

 

[foxuzamaki]

hahahaha

 

[TheChaos0]

Not unexpected however V's graphics looked horrid. Once you sharpen the old sprites, they lose their original feel.

 

[Zee-Row]

This song describes my feelings toward Square Enix

[Levyne]

Eh. Already played and enjoyed the game a long time ago. And with today's SE, doesn't even register.

 

[Deckard Cain]

A remake of FF6 on consoles would tank super hard. Thia is logical and easy. If you ever expect a true FF6 remake you're crazy.

 

[Draconian]

Seriously Square Enix, SERIOUSLY? Im fine with them releasing this on phones, but why cant they at least include 3DS and Vita?

Because that would require them actually spending time and effort on this. Why do that when you can do a cheap cash grab instead?

 

[Asd202]

Just trying to milk their past however long they can.

Soon they will have nothing to port lol.

 

[Tybolt]

I don't actually have an issue with the graphical style used in the FFV remake for Android. I do, however, have a problem with it being anything more than $5.

 

[arab]

TAKE MY MONEY SQUEENIX

 

[chickdigger802]

not sure why battle systems have been adjusted.


which means waggle to sabin.

 

[Ouroboros]

I'm already dead inside. I feel nothing.

 

[Interfectum]

Watching Square Enix piss on their fanbase is quite fascinating to watch.

 

[BigDes]

The graphics, he said, will be refined for cellphones. They'll still be 2D but sharpened, a la the recent mobile release of V.

and now for the FF7

Spoiler

iOS

remake you've all been waiting for

I still don't know why FF7 isn't on phones yet

Would make a ton of sense

 

[terrisus]

I'm speechless. I don't even know what to think or say. I think I'm going to be sick.
(I'm only half kidding).

At least it sounds like it won't be disgusting FF4-style 3D

[chaosblade]

Soon there have nothing to port lol.

They'll just make new ones. Again. It's not like every pre-PS1 Final Fantasy game (and many of their other popular games) haven't been ported or remade at least once already.

 

[Nirolak]

I hope they do better with the character art than FFV's remake.

 

[Starsunder]

;_;

 

[Azure Dream]

Squareenix, you do NOT fuck this up.

 

[Nirolak]

I still don't know why FF7 isn't on phones yet

I'll go out on a limb and say it will be shortly after 6.

 

[Ouroboros]

3DS would sell like hotcakes. Just seeing chibi Shadow 3d model...makes my heart warm.

 

[scy]

Welp.

Welp.
