U are acting like they are not already killing stuff lol.^~^
Serious talk though, i can see many smaller franchise to be heading to chopping block lol.
Setsuna, Star Ocean, Bravely Second all will be no more. Lets hope Nier would be able to avoid that hole here.^~^
Bravely Second is not that bad; even the score is favorable. I think a Bravely Third is definitely happening. People complaining about reused assets are just spoiled by the always new and fresh Fina Fantasy. Play some Trails of and get used to it!
Setsuna is not a big thing to begin with, and the president said something like "it takes three games to establish a franchise". I doubt they have any high hope for this.
Star Ocean though, all of us thought it was already dead when Tri-Ace was acquired by that mobile game company. The announcement of SO5 gave us hope. Now we can finally rule out Tri-Ace altogether.
I'm fully expecting a Q1 financial report like "SO5 was not doing well......BUT, check out how many people are playing our mobile games, we are rolling in money."
They have a good engine and a capable team, so I'm not worried. People giving shit to Nomura should really look at how many games he's been involved with these years.It's Nomura baby .
