Support NeoGAF

The Steamdb app was initially part of the Steam Help Desk leaks a few months ago, with Square essentially sitting on the app for the last year.

In the last hour they seemed to have attached it to a sub that prepares the game for release.

SteamDB App

 

[SuperChoco]

I wonder if they're going to put down as mid 2016 and have it release in September

 

[legendaryskitch]

Of course it is. I just got the ps4 version after all

 

[Zack Zavage]

Hell yes.

Hoping for 60fps.

 

[Lumination]

Will buy again. And again and again.

 

[_woLf]

i refuse to buy this game again

Spoiler

i probably will

Spoiler

eventually

 

[Tagyhag]

Hmm, I thought they were going to save it for another FF announcement. Maybe they were just waiting for Q2.

 

[Jin]

What are the chances the PC version will run at 60fps? I'm guessing none.

 

[Lights and Waves]

I've been playing through these on the PS4. Having such a blast.

 

[Emitan]

What are the chances the PC version won't have the battle menu lag?

Spoiler

And cutscene skip

 

[Vashetti]

What are the chances the PC version will run at 60fps? I'm guessing none.

Don't FFIII's battles run at 15fps?

 

[Grief.exe]

What are the chances the PC version will run at 60fps? I'm guessing none.

I'm guessing the PS4 version isn't running at 60?

 

[Momentary]

What are the chances the PC version will run at 60fps? I'm guessing none.

If it doesn't then hopefully the resolution isn't locked. Type-0 is locked, but it offers so many other options that it more than makes up for that in the graphics department.

 

[OBias]

Very nice. I hope it won't have any technical issues at launch.

 

[Tagyhag]

I'm guessing the PS4 version isn't running at 60?

It's not, I think the excuse they made was animations, which they'll probably do for the PC version as well.

Anywho, someone will crack it in less than a week and it'll look just fine like Tales.

 

[Dinda]

My god, how often will i end up buying this game.......

People sure are on top of these things.

Anyway, good news. Hopefully it's a good port.

 

[Rosur]

Will buy again if it comes to PC (for the 4th time...)

 

[poodaddy]

If the price is fair I'm in.

Now onto more pressing matters.....what in the hells going on with FFXII?

 

[SuperChoco]

Don't FFIII's battles run at 15fps?

3 runs at 30 in and out of battles.
4 runs at 15 in while 30 out of battles.
5 and 6 both run at 60
7 and 8 runs 15 in while 30 out of battles
not sure about 9
13 and 13-2 can hit 60 but it's super inconsistent
not sure about LR
Type -0 is a constant 30.

Was the PS2 version running at 60? If not, well, getting it to run at 60 might mess up animations.

 

[Mesoian]

Fucking finally. Let's go square so i can quadruple dip on this bitch.

 

[AcceptableGhost]

I bet they were just sitting on a complete ready to release game, waiting until after FF9 to release it. Insane.

 

[impact]

I'm in for sure

Tried playing X|X-2 on Vita and that was a huge mistake. Remasters are supposed to look better than the original game, Square.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I wanna see FFX in 8k, let's see it Steam players

I don't know if SE will bother to update FFXR for NEO, but i'd also like to see a 4k mode for that as well...its certainly capable, even if they have to take out the 4xMSAA

Not even close to 60, slowdowns during battles were commonplace and it was originally 30, just like PS3 and Vita and PS4. I think it may be the animations tied to FPS.

I'm in for sure

Primarily built for PS3 at native 1080p. Vita was downgraded and runs far worse too.

 

[Jin]

I'm guessing the PS4 version isn't running at 60?

Nope

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Primarily built for PS3 at native 1080p. Vita was downgraded and runs far worse too.

The Vita version runs at pretty much stable 30fps.

The PS4K is not going to run games at 4K outside of some small instances. I think you're underestimating the amount of overhead required for those resolutions.

 

[Hektor]

Skip the Spiel and fuckin do it already.

 

[Parsnip]

Nice. I saw that the app was updated as well, but didn't bother checking in on it deeper, good that someone else did.

 

[epmode]

Needs a music mod to get rid of that awful new soundtrack.

I think I'd like to replay this but I'm not a big fan of FF10.

edit: Apparently, the PS4 release allows you to choose the soundtrack!

 

[Iscariot]

That's cool if it's coming. I thought it'd never migrate based on the fact that Sony evidently provided some money and tech for 10's production.

I'd love to see FFT: WOTL and Tactics Ogre make their way to PS4/Steam/Xbone as well.

 

[Arc07]

If it's anything like the PS4 version you'll get the option of the original OST or the remixed.

No need for this. You can switch between the soundtracks in the PS4 version. Expect a straight port for the PC from that version.

Oh, nice. I read an old article where this wasn't possible.

 

[cloudstrife]

Can I transfer my save file from PS3/PS4?

If I can't, no dice Square.

 

[John Kowalski]

Playing FFX on a PC.

I'd love to tell this to young John Kowalski just to see his reaction.

 

[Vashetti]

3 runs at 30 in and out of battles.
4 runs at 15 in while 30 out of battles.
5 and 6 both run at 60
7 and 8 runs 15 in while 30 out of battles

Interesting, thanks

 

[KarmaCow]

I really hope this ends up being a good port, I would love to try FFX-2 again.

 

[Mcdohl]

I would so replay it, even though I just platinumed X last year

 

[SuperChoco]

Can I transfer my save file from PS3/PS4?

If I can't, no dice Square.

Mostly likely not. IIRC only 3 had the ability to read saves from non PC versions (Android version). 7 and 8 both could read saves from the non Steam versions, but that's about it.

 

[King_Richard]

They better be 60 fps otherwise I personally see no point in buying them.

I won't get my hopes up.

X-2's battles would look super cool at 60fps.

 

[protomouse]

Nice.

 

[inner-G]

Plz Square

 

[JaseC]

From the helpdesk thread:

Here's the amount of time that elapsed between the creation of a region-locked Eastern European sub and launch day for the five most recent Final Fantasy releases on Steam:

IX: A little over three months
VI: Two weeks
Lightning Returns: A little over a month
V: Roughly a week-and-a-half
Type-0 HD: A little under a month

The gap isn't exactly consistent and there's a lack of general activity on the X HD/X-2 HD app in recent times (prior to today, the last time the app was updated by Squeenix was last August), so I'm inclined to believe that release day is still months rather than days/weeks away.

TL;DR: I wouldn't get excited just yet, but it is happening.

 

[PhoenixFyre]

I literally have been checking Steam's "upcoming" section every day for this news. Please let this be real. And please don't let the wait for the release be long.

 

[Ridley327]

I wonder which version this is based on. The PS4 version let you select between the original PS2 soundtrack and the remastered PS3 soundtrack on FFX.

 

[MulderYuffie]

Only care about X-2 but awesome can't wait.

 

[Son Of D]

Watch this be the version to get skippable cutscenes for X.

Or at least a mod to skip them.
