One big project or multiple smallers ones? What do you think?
I would happily buy both Rebirth and XVI, but I’m not buying a $500 console to play two games.
Console exclusivity only benefits the console maker.
Very few third-party games remain exclusive to one platform forever, so in those cases I’m usually content to just wait it out until the exclusivity deal is over then pick the game up on a platform I own. Sometimes the wait can be pretty long but I really don’t have much of a sense of FOMO most of the time.

Yes. But when they stay exclusive it’s the worst.
Still waiting for Bloodborne to be available on PC; most likely will be waiting until I can emulate it.
The PC version of XVI is being actively worked on, Rebirth not long to follow I’d imagine, given that they released less than a year apart.
And I think they’re likely done taking those deals after this.
So basically they shut down their games actively being developed or games like NieR Reincarnation (I am legitimately upset they did not patch it to work offline, that was a great game that died yesterday) just so they could claim a loss. This is likely for tax reasons, if I had to guess.
From the looks of things, Warner Bros was just the beginning of this practice.
Nah, companies have been doing similar practices for ages. Its just they’re being more public about it now.
Now they’re attaching pretend numbers to the cancelation.
I still don’t understand how even with a tax write off they make more money than if they actually sold the damn thing.
The company said it wants to be “more selective and focused in the allocation of development resources”, and as a result of the “close examination”
Hate company gibberish like this. We plan to spend money differently… Somehow, but were planning!
Additionally Square needs to stop releasing games exclusively to a single platform, no wonder Rebirth sales haven’t been released as many (including myself) are waiting for the PC release.
Mainly waiting for PC release so I can use mods to shut Chadley up, and turn off all the anime grunting.
Still waiting for the FF7 remake complete collection to finally play it
