Square Enix Asks: What do you want in 2013?

I think compared to the catastrophic mishandling of the FF franchise since XII, particularly in North America, you'd want a franchise that still had a good name attached to it to fill the gaps. That KH just about completely missed this generation of consoles is a bit of a disaster for Square Enix.

Yeah, Sky Fortress Bahamut was a letdown compared to the awesome Pharos / Pharos Subterra dungeons.

Wants?

A proper sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics.
A continuation of the Tactics Ogre series.
Dissidia on a console / PC.
A standalone trading card game based on Final Fantasy. (and no, not Tetra Master lol)
Star Ocean Online (yeah, im reaching)

Or maybe people want KH because it's actually fun? I know, a game with fun game play, crazy right?

Speaking of which, I want a FF title with dark souls like game play. (Ideally I would want Matsuno to do this but since SE likes getting rid of talent, that wish won't happen.)

Type 0 is the closest you'll get since it has multi-button realtime combat and dodging.

**SephYuyX** · 2013-01-06 20:54

No more handheld/web/tablet games.

This is what that axed "Fortress" looked like it was going to be... too bad that whole thing probably got tossed in the trash.

Looked a bit like that game Vagrant Story that sucked so horribly SE would never, ever release a continuation of such fail.

It was for the best no doubt.

I'm sorry, but what was leaked (by Grin) was from extremely early stages of development, so no one can really talk about whether it was going to suck... unless you're talking about Vagrant Story sucking... then you're probably going to hear it from several people around here. The setting (Ivalice, post-FFXII/RW) and all the concept art from it make me very sad that it probably won't ever be re-explored.

Then there's the one epic song that they leaked along with it all.

(Note that the actual "fortress" found in the art looks a lot like the planned PvP content for ARR...)

Anybody fifteen and under would have been at most ~4 when Kingdom Hearts came out. Or at most ~7 from when KH2 was released. I'd wager that pretty much a majority of the people who want more KH are all over 15.

Actually Fortress was shaping up to be a Skyrim-esque FFXII sequel, which would have been pretty damn good. It's a real shame that they abandoned the project.

Nothing to do with that POS that you mentioned (thank god).

I play Dissidia 012 on my PC using JPCSP (http://jpcsp.org/) and a PS3 controller, works pretty well too.
This site used to be pretty good for triple triad: http://www.tripletriadflashonline.com/ not sure how active it is now

**Kurstone** · 2013-01-07 07:25

Think he means means with PS3 quality as well, i've played dissidia, type-0 and other games on a big monitor and it doesn't look as great...

**Niiro** · 2013-01-07 11:49

I assume you can upscale the rendering settings like every other emulator I've ever used.

I meant a legit PC or PS3 release complete with graphical upgrades.

Pages late:

In regards to more chrono trigger, there was technically a prequel on the snes called Radical Dreamers. It was just one of those choose your own adventure type novel games with Kidd as the main character. I think it conflicts with some of the plot in CC, but they could make it into an actual game and tweak it a little.

Regardless, they could still do other things considering the game is all back n' forth in time. They could pick out different time periods that weren't addressed in chrono trigger with a whole new disaster or something.

**Ratatapa** · 2013-01-07 12:08

Stuff I want in 2013

KH on PS3 NA
FFV
FFVI
FFXV!

**shidobu** · 2013-01-07 12:15

I believe you missed some sarcasm there.
