Sora96 17,256 Posted August 7, 2014 Now, yes it sucks big time and it honestly should be almost finished by now but it's not. And there's some fair reasons why. The game didn't begin full production until after Advent Children Complete was released. The team handling FFXV's cutscenes is the same one who made Advent Children and Advent Children Complete. Developing a HD game with Crystal Tools isn't easy. As Square Enix learned the hard way with Final Fantasy XIII, it's not easy developing a HD game, let alone one with their own engine. XIII was plagued with development issues as a result, and it was always their priority. Kingdom Hearts Team members obviously worked on other projects. It's safe to assume that team members went to work on Final Fantasy XIII, Dissidia and Birth by Sleep. Maybe even Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Development shifted to PlayStation 4. Maybe the biggest one. Going to a brand new engine and a brand new console isn't easy clearly. Why hasn't it appeared at events since E3 2013? Square Enix are too busy promoting their other titles. Final Fantasy XIV in particular. Atm it's their big new FF game. Even if you don't like MMOs, it's understandable they don't want it overshadowed by what's hopefully one of the greatest Final Fantasy games of all time. No trailers allows them to focus on developing the game. While we'd all love to see new footage, by not releasing any it allows them to focus solely on the actual game. Now yes, it still sucks big time and we really want footage and a release window and it might be hard to accept these facts but it's probably all the truth. Also, Nomura clearly sucks at directing HD games... I'm expecting it at Tokyo Game Show though. 16 Reyn, Everglow, AwesomeKHfan and 13 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AuraAce 1,126 Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) I'm pretty sure they didn't... I'm sure they did though I can't recall where. I doubt it will because of all the other big projects they have but it is "Scheduled" to release in March.

Their financial prediction did not include anywhere near that. 1 AwesomeKHfan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's working on mobile titles, HD remasters, and next gen games...not to mention he's probably character designing for Toriyama & Kitase's next project. 2 WakelessDream and Sendou Aichi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only thing I can say is, we just have to wait. No matter how long it will take. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sendou Aichi 2,356 Posted August 7, 2014 Square Enix said that they're releasing it in March next year so It must be pretty close to being finished. Think you are confusing it that the game won't be out before March 2015. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Master Keeper 687 Posted August 7, 2014 Nomura sucks at directing HD games? Whatever he is doing, his HD games are the best HDs compared to all the other HD games out there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngeI 11 Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) So what you are saying is that we probably won't see FF15 anytime soon? From the recent trailer a lot of the cutscenes where ones already seen from a previous trailer. Man this is a bummer I hope they give us some idea of when it will be released from TGS.

No, I didn't say that. I'm just explaining a lot of the reasons why it's taking so long. I'm hoping for a worldwide release between November 2015 & February 2016. 1 AngeI reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
