Thank fucking Christ it’s not epic exclusive.
Epic isn’t making money on exclusives. Square Enix isn’t making money on exclusives. Sony probably isn’t even making money on third party exclusives. Thankfully, market forces have ensured that it was never going to be exclusive.
Epic never expected to make money on exclusives. They were using them as a loss-leader to force people to use their shitty store. Fortunately it looks like they’ve lost enough money to make them stop or at least cut back on their shenanigans.
The loss leader strategy hasn’t worked, is what I meant. They said in an article in the past few days, quite explicitly, that that strategy isn’t even working for whatever ill-advised loss leader strategy they’re up to in order to acquire users.
I’ve never played these games but after 16 I’m starting to think they are gaslighting us with the word “Final”.
16 is also close to the 50th game that they’ve released, according to Google.
There’s a popular urban legend that Square was on the verge of going under and expected the game to be their last, hence the title, but in reality what happened was that the creator wanted the game to initialize as FF and his first choice, Fighting Fantasy, was already taken. He was planning on retiring after the game was published, though, so he eventually settled on Final Fantasy. Still didn’t work out, though, because he directed 1-5 and then contributed to 6-10.
Penultimate Fantasy
Probably on sale for half off by the holidays. I can wait.
Final Fantasy don’t often go on sale. Though I hope you’re right!
Rebirth when.
I’ll tell you when the game has been spoiled for me. Because the release date will be announced within days after.
don’t works great on GNU/Linux yet even with a 3080 (very unstable framerate even with low settings). Hope proton will be fixed soon by Valve so this game run like FF7 remake.
EDIT: it’s a little better with latest proton GE but still not enough framerate for an DMC-like)
Is this Linux compatible?
No issues on my playthrough of it this morning. It will complain about your GPU driver on launch, but then proceed to launch anyways after you acknowledge the message.
Yoshi P and Soken, I’m sold.
