          I think the main character was the problem there.
          Put in a spiky-haired pretty boy JRPG lead and it would have sold better for sure. Still probably would be considered a flop though.

            forspoken with pretty boys already happened, it was called FFXV and they had to cancel the DLC for it. forspoken only happened in the first place to recoup the cost of its engine development.

        That would be a better argument if all FF games were actual sequels of eachother instead of completely separate games that happen to share some core concepts and gameplay elements.

        FF16 is already essentially a "new IP" compared to FF15, just as FF15 is sparate from FF14, and so forth. Several of the FF games do have actual sequels, but those are never the mainline numbered games.

    The type of combat doesn't matter here. BG3 is a true RPG with a lot of freedom and choices that matter, FF is a corridor simulator with cinematics in between.

    They probably see the mid sales of the FF-esque modern turn based games like Octopath/Bravely series and think people don't want turn based without considering people do want turn based and those games are just dog shit.
    They can't figure out how to evolve the genre because they are trash devs.

        Huh? An example of a good modern turn based RPG is Battlechasers and my favorite turn based game is Slay the Spire. These are hardly AAA...

      If a reviewer gives a low score to a game, then the publisher won't give them review copies in the future.
      If they don't get an early review copy, then they can't make a review in the first place.
      If they can't make a review, then they can't make any money.

    Turn based combat is still very "in" for western PC gamers, but a lot of console gamers and especially young Jap console gamers don't like it. There's a reason lots of Persona "fans" have either never played the games or play them on the easiest difficulty.
    I understand what they were going for with 16 but I am confused why they marketed it so poorly and what the frick YoshiP was saying in interviews.

    The change from turn based wasn’t introduced in 16. Anyway, I’m fine with whatever as long as the game is fun. 16 was repetitive as shit and way too fricking easy. They has potential but fricked it up.
