SQUARE Q2 EARNINGS

FFXVI is a bigger disaster than the original launch of FFXIV.
>higher development cost amortization and advertising costs
Imagine having to put that in your earnings call. YoshiP must be sweating buckets

    In staggering news, transexuals and homosexuals don't buy video games. More on this at 11.

    Where's the anti-Barry-SE-defense-cult today? They're usually ready and coping about how "3m sales is actually really good" when we're 5 posts into a thread.
    Have they finally given up?

      They probably all went into a XIV raid or something.

    Why is this board so focused on numbers? Always going on about sales, and profits and costs as of this should matter at all to you basic consumers. I sweat this shithole feels like /vbiz/.

      Inconsistent, but when its good its very good.

      They put everything into the set peices and ensuring the game was 'complete', but everything outside of that is bland window dressing.

      It yo-yos between 5/10 and 10/10 as a result.

      XI will always be a cherished memories for me, staticing through CoP in the 2000s was some of the best moment I had playing any video games.

    They are only releasing these figures to artificially boost how much of a "success" FF7 remake chapter 2 will be.
