Because its 6+ month away .... even resident evil 4 remake , one of the most notorious video game is only at like 10th place because its 3 month away. dont even bring up diablo 4 as a cope , diablo is WAY more popular than final fantasy in this day and age.
You made like 10 different threads about this yesterday Barry. AND everyone already told you in those that they have a contract with sony so of course theyre not going to tall about the PC port later on.
>barry
Why is it any time anyone makes a thread not dicksucking ff14 or ff16 that some troony comes out of the woodwork and starts spouting barry? Is barry all those people on twitter shitting on ff16 too?
How is anyone such a newbie that you dont know about barry/bazztek/FFXVkun? He's only been spamming this board since fricking 2012. >Is barry all those people on twitter shitting on ff16 too?
Why are you on Twitter? Why do care about literally who twitter homosexuals?
SE suits have probably told him to push the PS5 edition since Sony's no doubt paid them a shitload for six months exclusivity and they don't want to sour the deal because then Sony won't be willing to do it again.
Probably the same reason they always take the EGS payout, they only care about short term gains.
>Stuck on PS5 for 6 months >Stuck on EGS for 6 months or 12 months after that >Will still cost 70+ bucks once it comes to steam
Square did it with FF7R so you can be 100% sure that they will pull something like that again and then blame the poor sales on something other than their own moronation
Japanese boomers are morons, they think everyone is dumb (i mean is half true) but yeah like you say, everyone saw that shit, for that i now gonna pirate this game like i did with FF 7 remake
It has games though.
Can you list three PC exclusives released in the past three years that were critically acclaimed like the DeS remake and Ragnarok?
>every numbered Final Fantasy game is on Steam >FF16 won't come to Steam guys just buy a PS5
It's a singleplayer RPG, there is literally no reason to buy it ASAP. Just be patient
Why does Yoshida feels like he has to answer these dumb ass questions? Just say no comment and move on. It's obvious to someone with a brain that he can not comment about it without breaching some sort of a contract with Sony. Same thing with the whole POC nonsense. He should've known by now, considering how much he engages with other people online, that no matter what, these morons will not like your answer despite his answer is perfectly reasonable. But we live in a time where people are too fricking stupid and too quick to react.
>just buy a PS5 for GoW: Ragnarok and FF16 since every other game were in the leaks!
No. And I will also patiently wait for Nathan Drake Collection. What a bunch of boring fricking games, I remember almost nothing about GoW and I'm happy that it ended "sooner than I expected"
>That's literally an error
No, it's not. >Happens to other Sony game in that same fricking State of Play.
Only DeS, and they pulled its trailer to fix the error.

Jesus fricking christ, games are developed using the pc. >Not available on other platforms for a limited time
Yes, and? What's your point? Do you seriously think they won't be making a pc port? Do you understand how contracts work? He can't just say openly "We're making a pc port don't worry", while being paid by Sony to keep said third party game exclusively on their console.

It doesn't change the fact that it is an error you god damned imbecile. No one from SE has ever, officially, announced they are doing the port. That's the bloody fricking point. Never have I ever implied a pc port isn't going to be made. Jesus.
No they're not, oh and also the launch of PSVR2, PS5 is unstoppable, this year is going to be the best in a long time, PCgays should be happy the more successful PlayStation 5 is the more scraps you eventually get, you should be used to waiting for games by now

I still can't tell if soBlack folks are actually this moronic or someone's just trolling.
I can taste the salt on each post itt, if you don't have a PS5 you don't like video games PERIOD, go shill some $60 tendieshovelware or broken PC stuttering frick face PCports, PS5 is the best
Sqeenix is all about exclusivity contracts.
Timed exclusivity for Playstation, followed by spitting out a shitty port with timed exclusivity on Epic Games, follow by--at this point it's like 2 years later--a Steam release which will arrive with all the grace of a wet fart splatting. Especially funny since Sqeenix will have never have done post-release patches to fix perf issues.
barry why is your reading comprehension that of a petrol-sniffing abo. He purposely implied that his joke may have gone inappropriate on the last part. You're in Ganker so you should have sarcasm detector
It's better than paying for a GPU every couple years, at least we own the physical games and they can't be emulated on PC day 1 like Switch. Imagine buying Monster Hunter Rise or Front Mission on Switch believing it was a true exclusive but it's nothing but gimped beta test. PS5 is the only system with exclusives and Sony is at least honest and admits their games will come to PC eventually unlike Nintendo who payed capcom and Square hush money. We know now see that Nintendo has no real third party exclusives anymore, the transition from 3DS to Switch was a failure, they could not retain third party support from their handhelds, this is why Nintendo is so scared right now, they can't survive with nothing but ports
PC also sucks too, PlayStation is the only good system. It's pathetic that Sony is the only one worth buying but that's how it is, I can only compare Sony to the competition
This game is likely to be good and I'm glad that ps5 owners will enjoy it. I'm okay with waiting another year because I can play other games in the meantime.
I dont know why but I'm hyped for this game , generally not hyped by marketing and such but this game speak to me.
Last Final fantasy I liked was X so its not like I'm a Final fantasy fan.
Why aren't you talking about Forspoken, Barry-sorry, my mistake, didn't mean to deadname you, I mean Barbara? I thought the game is selling so well because of le hoooype!
that moron think that PC players are as compulsive and moronic as console gays while in reality we don't need his game since we have thousand other games that we can play at any time, his game will come in a year on pc and he will be begging people to buy it for scraps after laughable population of ps5 won't able to satisfy their investor projected copies sold and growth
How about they put it on Steam and not EGS store like an actual cool company on day 1 like Capcom? No wonder they're going bankrupt, their games suck and nobody likes their decisions.
Final Fantasy XV flopped and bombed to Forspoken.
Barry is a troony loving kek
Forspoken will sell more than XV and it’s confirmed unironic KINO
XV devs are shovelware as well as Luminous Productions
Forspoken is going to destroy the frick out of XV
XVtrannies and XIV/XVItrannies on suicide watch
Literally Forspoken will be the best game of the decade
Somebody explain to me why companies who complain about "piracy" supposedly "costing them sales"(it doesn't fyi) decide not to release their game on more than one platform, actually costing them sales.
Doesn't make any sense. Shouldn't they want my money? Why do they not want me to buy their game?
Snoy, Microdick and Epig all pay for exclusivity to their software/hardware and we are not talking small amounts of money either since it's usually something like: >If you make your game exclusive to our platform for 6 months we will pay you an equal amount of money as 1mil copies in sales right fricking now
In Microdicks defense though, they actually buy out all of devs so they are technically making first party tittles just like Nintensoy are doing and they still release on PC either day one or shorty after
>buying a console that has to be kept at the right angle, right temperature, right humidity, right pressure and right position otherwise it melts and kills your whole family after it burns your house down like the terminator
I'd rather stick with my pc, frick you very much.
Are you moronic? He made a joke. It`s been confirmed to be a 6 month timed exclusive (which is a rather short time to wait and every other FF is on PC already so off course XVI will make it)
The meltdown from Barry once Forspoken comes out and turn out to be a piece of shit will frick up this board for months. Remember, this is an autist that manages to bypass rangebans on a regular basis for YEARS.
Is there footage of him specifically saying that the game isn't coming to PC?
The one I saw was him making jokes to dodge the question.
If he is on record CLEARLY saying that it is not coming to PC and to buy another version first he can get sued if they have deals with Steam, Epic etc.
They can get sued by the consumers and the stores separately for different reasons.
Also shareholders don't really appreciate lying.
The thing I don't get about schizos like Barry is, why do they try so hard to deny who they are? Do they legitimately believe they're being sneaky and it's not obvious who they are? What deludes them into thinking that?
one more shitty game not coming to pc..... oh no
/cope
but it's the 16th piece of shit!
a JRPG no less, the bottom of the barrel in gaming innovation and interactivity
that's a smart move
after all FF16 will likely be the best game ever made and it will boost sales for the console immensely
its selling worse than Forspoken lol
>selling worse
Games not even ot.
hes talking about sales.
barry, shut the frick up.
shove your ps store charts up your ass
neither are out
ff16 is selling worse prerelease you moron
its not even on comg you moron
Because its 6+ month away .... even resident evil 4 remake , one of the most notorious video game is only at like 10th place because its 3 month away. dont even bring up diablo 4 as a cope , diablo is WAY more popular than final fantasy in this day and age.
Nobody cares about diablo in japan
And you're fricking moronic
16 is selling worse than 15 and 7R too
nobody said ff16 sold better than ffxv and 7R you fricking moron
>game exclusive to a platform with a small install base is doing worse than 2 games which had a larger install base at the time
HOLY SHIT
Even if that was true, Square doesn't give a frick how good or bad the PlayStation does
>best game ever made
how can you write this and not feel ashamed?
I'll just wait until FFXVI Complete Edition hits $20 on Steam.
same
Guess I'll do the same too. Not trying to buy PS5 now
just pirate it
This
Or maybe based uncle tim is gonna give me a free copy like with ff7 remake

This isn't your hugbox yoshit-P cultist
This is his own fault for literally mentioning PC in the fricking debut FF16 trailer
This board isn't yours to shit you fricking paki.

Why do you care about literally who Ganker homosexuals?
it's hard to take these cultists seriously when they think everyone who shares the same opinion is the same person
BARRY, GO TO SLEEP OR YOU"LL BE GROUNDED FOR A MONTH!!!
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the majority of tweets shitting on XVI were just Barry sockpuppets
SE is quickly becoming the "we're fricking moronic and helpless, please buy us sony/microsoft" company.
I thought they said it was a 6-month exclusivity just the other day
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
why's he playing dumb? seriously don't get it
squeenix and muh exclusivity deals. if they outright said that its coming to pc later that can be seen as potentially harming sales of the PS5 release
Because sony wants him to shill the PS5 first ,duh? It's such a nothing news story but barrys keeps on spamming it.
SE suits have probably told him to push the PS5 edition since Sony's no doubt paid them a shitload for six months exclusivity and they don't want to sour the deal because then Sony won't be willing to do it again.
Probably the same reason they always take the EGS payout, they only care about short term gains.
>Stuck on PS5 for 6 months
>Stuck on EGS for 6 months or 12 months after that
>Will still cost 70+ bucks once it comes to steam

Japanese boomers are morons, they think everyone is dumb (i mean is half true) but yeah like you say, everyone saw that shit, for that i now gonna pirate this game like i did with FF 7 remake
why even post this image, just post the one of the first reveal of ff16 it literally said game running on pc.
Where do you think games are developed on you dribbling moron?
Enjoy less then 2 million global sales I guess cause nobody I know owns a ps5
Shitty clickbait article, he literally joked about timed exclusivity being a gay meme and said they worked hard and it's coming (the PC version).
>n-no ACKCHYUALLY my master said A not B

I CAN'T AFFORD A PS5 I SPENT ALL MY GAMING MONEY ON A XIV FAT cat PLUSH
Takes up less room than a PS5 at least.
Jokes on you, I dont even want to play the game THAT much. It looks like a mediocre DMC clone.
They are just going to release the superior version a year later like last time. The console version will be jank on day one like all vidya now days.
see?
>just buy a console with no games so you can play the latest entry in a series that hasn't been good in nearly two decades, bro
It has games though.
Can you list three PC exclusives released in the past three years that were critically acclaimed like the DeS remake and Ragnarok?
Valheim, Bannerlord, Dwarf Fortress.
Also, you are confusing marketing with genuine widespread acclaim.
Finally, a platform like Steams fricking mogs all three console's offerings as far as ingenuity, quantity, and variety of offerings.
>Valheim
On my Series X
>Bannerlord
On my PS4
>Dwarf Fortress
KEKEKEKEKEKEKEK
No, I think you are. PS5's games are monstrous and popular. Sales show it. Reviews show it.
Nothing on PC matches that.

>PS5's games are monstrous and popular
cope harder
Oh look
The sony wiener sucker is brining up his "exclusives" again
No one cares, you're losing most if not all your "exclusives"
It'll take a year and then it'll be on PC, like all their shit.
they're under a temp exclusivity deal, the whole point is to get people to buy ps5s. after that 6 months, then they'll start talking about pc
>every numbered Final Fantasy game is on Steam
>FF16 won't come to Steam guys just buy a PS5
It's a singleplayer RPG, there is literally no reason to buy it ASAP. Just be patient
oh look, a repost from earlier today made by a FFXV faboy
FFXVchads are carrying FF16, show some respect
Yes please keep this weeb shit on its containment platform.
Ah yes another PS5 "exclusive" that surely won't be on PC within the year.
Why does Yoshida feels like he has to answer these dumb ass questions? Just say no comment and move on. It's obvious to someone with a brain that he can not comment about it without breaching some sort of a contract with Sony. Same thing with the whole POC nonsense.

But we live in a time where people are too fricking stupid and too quick to react.
>majority of pc players are still on 1080p
Literally who cares, but of course he is saying this, he wants to maximize autists buying it twice.
What the frick does *Not available on other platforms until 12.31.2023 mean then?
Switch streaming port like Capcom does with RE?
>just buy a PS5 for GoW: Ragnarok and FF16 since every other game were in the leaks!
No. And I will also patiently wait for Nathan Drake Collection. What a bunch of boring fricking games, I remember almost nothing about GoW and I'm happy that it ended "sooner than I expected"
7r still has stutters for me with no fix, so considering how fricking inept they are at this shit, it's not bad advice.
>it turns out to be 7 months later
Fricking YoshiP
It's not exactly a false claim.
CONSOLE exclusive, meaning no switch, xbox and whatever ouya you have out there.
>YoshiP today: Nobody said anything about a PC version
>SE when FFXVI was announced: Also on PC
That's literally an error you goddamn baboon. Happens to other Sony game in that same fricking State of Play.

No, it's not.

Technically the Steam Deck is a console too
2023 is going to be amazing for PS5, Stellar Blade, FF16, FFVIIR, Spider-Man 2, Silent Hill 2 all exclusive for years and never coming to Xbox.
All these are multiplats
No they're not, oh and also the launch of PSVR2, PS5 is unstoppable, this year is going to be the best in a long time, PCgays should be happy the more successful PlayStation 5 is the more scraps you eventually get, you should be used to waiting for games by now

How much does Sony pay you to shill the ps5
5, 10 dollars?
All the more reason to not buy a PS5 NOR Final Fantasy anything.

Sure 😉
Final fantasy was always a mid franchise anyway. Also
>giving money to current SE
Lol, lmao even.

kill all game journos
He wasn't joking

barry why is your reading comprehension that of a petrol-sniffing abo. He purposely implied that his joke may have gone inappropriate on the last part. You're in Ganker so you should have sarcasm detector
It will come eventually, cheaper and with all DLC's.
never played a final fantasy game in my life and never will cos i don't care
Cringe
Imagine buying PS5 to play Square Enix schlock.
It'll be on PC.
OH NO NO NO, I WILL MISS THE...uhm what game is this again?
final troons spamming their snoyboy cult leader 24/7
never wanted to play this dogshit in the first place, gonna watch it burn from the sidelines
FF7 new threat is not on PS5
meanwhile the number of PC users in Japan is rising
I'm so missing on some shit fricking game that looks like a single-player Korean MMO.
To think PS5 owners pay for timed exclusives
Everybody I know with a PS5 don't even buy games they just play whatever they get free on it.
That's sad
Yeah I wasn't sure if that was normal.
That's what consoles are for, normie casuals.
regular Ganker autist would run out of games in under a month on the nogaems machine

PC also sucks too, PlayStation is the only good system. It's pathetic that Sony is the only one worth buying but that's how it is, I can only compare Sony to the competition
Can you even buy a PS5 yet or did the meme virus still frick Snoy?
This game is likely to be good and I'm glad that ps5 owners will enjoy it. I'm okay with waiting another year because I can play other games in the meantime.
>announce it's only exclusive for awhile and coming to other systems

>being this buttblasted
I guess even pcgays these days are into moronic console wars.
I've never played final fantasy and I have absolutely no idea what they're about. They look absolutely fricking gay
Leaked by nvidia which is more trustable than a ugly old man's speech.
All this drama over a boring-looking Final Fantasy? It was at least understandable to seethe over Bloodborne back in the day.
And I should send all minorities to the sun. But I dont want to do that.
How about they put it on Steam and not EGS store like an actual cool company on day 1 like Capcom? No wonder they're going bankrupt, their games suck and nobody likes their decisions.
They better not be surprised when people pirate the shit out of it then, when it inevitably ends up on PC.
It will come out on Xbox before PC quote me on this
Good. More bad decisions for this shit company to go under.
it's funny, how desperate sony is for the last few years thanks to the PS5.
if people magically going to buy a overpriced shitty console for one game
Final Fantasy XV flopped and bombed to Forspoken.

In Microdicks defense though, they actually buy out all of devs so they are technically making first party tittles just like Nintensoy are doing and they still release on PC either day one or shorty after
That's pretty scummy honestly.

how hard barry tries to shit on 16 its just funny.
deep inside he already knows how much better 16 will be.
let him have his fun guys.
he lost an he knows it.
>buying a console that has to be kept at the right angle, right temperature, right humidity, right pressure and right position otherwise it melts and kills your whole family after it burns your house down like the terminator
I'd rather stick with my pc, frick you very much.

https://twitter.com/NextGenPlayer/status/1612953545439080448?s=20&t=J0dxFXPoZDHfBJXi_aX_Fg
Didn't it got unironically, "debooonked!"
Are you moronic? He made a joke. It`s been confirmed to be a 6 month timed exclusive (which is a rather short time to wait and every other FF is on PC already so off course XVI will make it)
dont even try. /v is dumb.
and OP clearly left out the imprtant detail that he said that as a joke.
The meltdown from Barry once Forspoken comes out and turn out to be a piece of shit will frick up this board for months. Remember, this is an autist that manages to bypass rangebans on a regular basis for YEARS.
Sony sounds pretty desperate to sell PS5s.
Why is FF even popular? V was good, VI had good music, the rest are meh. The Tactics games and Crystal Chronicles on the Gamecube are great though.
SE has a deal with Sony. What do you expect him to say? "Yeah, frick PS5. Just wait 6 months and buy the better version"?
Is there footage of him specifically saying that the game isn't coming to PC?
The one I saw was him making jokes to dodge the question.
If he is on record CLEARLY saying that it is not coming to PC and to buy another version first he can get sued if they have deals with Steam, Epic etc.
They can get sued by the consumers and the stores separately for different reasons.
Also shareholders don't really appreciate lying.
>you can't give SE money if you don't buy a console
So... it's a win-win then?
The thing I don't get about schizos like Barry is, why do they try so hard to deny who they are? Do they legitimately believe they're being sneaky and it's not obvious who they are? What deludes them into thinking that?
my only two guesses would be
1) he doesn't want his trip filtered
2) it lets him get away with responding to his own posts
