Please come out on steam soon, please come out on steam soon

They're stretching "early 2016" to its very limits I see.

Sometimes I think Squeenix just likes busting it's fan's balls, and that, for example in this case, they've had that port ready for months now. But hey, the update says it'll be released on!! ....No...no wait, it's different now.

Early 2016 could be the first four months if the year is divided into early, middle and late. It could even be the first six months if you leave out the middle, but that's really stretching it. Let's hope for a release this month.

So FFIX had it's EULA uploaded in Japanese with a date of April 14th. This coincides with Sakaguchi and Tabata's livestream.

^That EULA has been changing the entire week with the Steam forums going crazy with "Toot" every single time.

Lets hope it comes out this month to say the least.

There's a scheduled update for the IX store page on steam for the 14th which coincides with the EULA date. Fingers crossed folks, it could be out in two days time.

Fingers crossed they gave it a good UI for PC that is :monster:

So far it looks really great but I can't get my controller to work and I refuse to play the game with keyboard and mouse. Zidane walks to the right, gets stuck there and I can't choose anything XD

So happy this is finally out. While ever with the 20% off, it is still too much for me, It is nice to know it is there. Will likely get it when it gets down to 10$. Also, it is just me, or is 21$ a really weird base price? Guess it doesn't matter, because the last good Final Fantasy is finally on PC.

The game runs very smoothly and the character models are sharp and stand out. I'm really loving this so far. Had no issues with my X-Box Windows controller.

Haven't bought it yet, but I will.

Still in the middle/end of X/ and need to play X-2 so I'll get to it later.

Does a 360 controller work completely with this version?

As the FF7 Steam version has issues. For example you can only use the analog stick for everything. This is an issue for me, as I like to use the stick to move, but the D-pad for menus and combat. But the D-pad doesn't work at all. I have been looking for a solution to this, but no one seems to have one, and no it is not just me and my 360 controller it is universal as far as I can tell.

There are many fixes for that for FFVII, the simplest of which is to use xpadder to map the DPad to the arrow buttons.

But for FFIX, yes it does work natively. Fair warning - there's a directinput/xinput bug that causes Zidane to walk right and never stop but some people didn't run into it (I did). An easy fix is to disconnect the controller then reconnect it after the game has been started. There's also a mod out to sort it.

Could you please define "many fixes". Xpadder seems to be the only fix. And it is not a great one.

There's an xinput driver contoller you can install as well as some other workarounds. The easiest and simplest thing to do is to just use Xpadder. If you don't want to use Xpadder it's up to you :monster:
