DEAR MR WADA

[Tetsujin]

I agree Mog.
Competition is important and the lack thereof might really be a factor in the decline of quality of S-E's recent games.

Sakaguchi hasn't proven to be a worthy rival to his former employer either. =/

I thought the Mistwalker and Tales JRPGs were pretty damn good :/

YOU WOULD THINK at first though, I assume you're looking forward to Deus Ex 3, as I am? And I also assume that you plan to purchase it if you can, and if the game is good (which it seems like it will be). Square Enix is getting some of the dough, and you can bet that some of that dough is going to the "Let's make stupid fucking games" fund.

See, it's a bit tricky when it's like that, yeah?

Not when I rent/buy it used.

They are, but in the big picture, they're just sort of trickles, every now and again sort of deals. Gone are the days of the 90s and the early 00s when everyone was trying to get a piece of the RPG action. I have two CD cases full of JRPGs alone from the days everyone was climbing that mountaintop.

Not when I rent/buy it used.

Touche. However if it's as good as I'm hoping it to be, I'll buy it fresh, if nothing else to support/reward Eidos for handling their shit well done.

Every time Wada speaks there's usually a(n internet) backlash over here. Does the same thing happen in Japan? And if so, does Square know about it? Even if Wada is completely out of touch, someone must notice, no?

I remember a few years ago there was a rumour that FFXII would be the last title in the series.

You mean it wasn't?



Wada is seriously more out of touch about video games than these assholes.
