Kingdom Hearts IV

Yep

we reaIIy have to wonder

Really early

Where are you getting the "really" early from- that shit was miles ahead of 3's early dev reveal trailer

true!

but 3 was in Iike, pre-aIpha

this Iooks more prototype

basicaIIy, 4 seems to be having a heaIthy deveIopment cycIe 😌

Hopefully

if I'm wrong about this I'm gonna cry

Until Nomura gets thrown on 6 more projects

Yeah for once in this company's goddamn life.

YESSS

YES YES YES YES YES

shockingIy rare huh

even FF10 had a bad deveIopment cycIe

so did 7 apparentIy

and then the ones with decent dev times are the ones no one taIks about today 💀

Six if he’s LUCKY

Square still needs to learn tho that they have better and equal people to be directors

I'd have to check but I think at least 12 out of the 18 mainline games (counting X-2 and the 2 XIII sequels) had bad, rocky, or otherwise completely firetrucked development cycles lmao

true

=)

if 16 turns out to be good, maybe we can excIude it from that count

2009 - 2020 is there worst

maybe

16 being released within 2 years is still insane to me

That’s…over a decade

wasn't it reveaIed in 2020?

Iike, June 2020?

that's 3 years I think

Sep

Well even if it's mid or bad theyev been very public on how "no seriously this game was made super smoothly we're kinda shocked honestly"

ah

"Could only have been done on the PS5."

MHM

I'II punch them
