because they don't respect their own mechanics

I hope this game doesn't get more mechanics

because the higher the chance that it will break the game

this game literally only sold one million

on multiple platforms

this is not a firetrucking massive success lmao

Ff16 sold 3 mil on one

jrpg weebs are firetrucking monkeys

Atlus doing great for what they are as a studio

if SE would only sell 1 million ppl would cook them

It sold a million day one

And it's also the most succesful one for Atlus

It's a huge thing

these numbers are insanely low for SE

Of course Square would get scrutinized for it, their expectations are wildly different from Atlus

like ppl can't even compare them

yeah and ppl don't understand that

like wtf

metaphor is basically only reused persona assets

I am confused, you are the one who just said it's not a massive success

it's not a massive success if SE would do that

SE creates entirely new games with each mainline FF

this shit is expensive

it's just not a good argument to use that against SE when the game only sold one million

The point of the post is that Atlus is getting more success as it goes on for still continuing the turn based games

They aren't pivoting to another genre like Square is to get more people to play their games

And you are right, a million wouldn't be success to Square. But then the question is if Square did a AAA FF turn based game, could it still be a success?

no

because then they make the same issue again

as with post FFX games

they will just kill their current audience

They have killed their own audience constantly

I'm confused, is Metaphor a success? Or are people complaining to complain again?

metaphor is a success for atlus

but ppl use it to shit on FF when atlus and SE aren't comparable at all

it's so unbelievably dumb on so many levels

I honestly don't see what's stupid about it

Square changed genres and they should be scuritizined for how they did it

The problem is they did exclusive 3 times now and if 16 and rebirth were multiplat it would have been higher sales, it's not a gameplay or turn based vs action issue

Yeah I don't really agree on the exclusivity thing either

Games like Spider-man or God of War shows they can still sell insanely well

Whatever is going on here is on the games, not on multiplatform or exclusivity
