I'll will be watching performance tests. If it can't hold a locked 60 then I'll wait for the port.

You need some screen motion blur with 30fps but to what degree is debatable. Slider would be nice to have.

Agreed, it has to either have a slider or be very light, or else you end up with something that causes motion sickness like Final Fantasy Type-0 when it first released on PS4.

Yeah in the same time 70-80% of big games have xxGB day1 updates and they're still more or less broken on release. It's sad that most players only care about playing the game even if its state is horrible and shouldn't be accepted.

Yea this was way too much. It's a fun idea for music videos or Edgar Wright movies, but a terrible idea for action RPGs.Only time motion blur bothered me was in FF Type-0 HD.

No idea, but I always had the impression that at least three of the four business units were the equivalent of big studios. Don't quote me on these numbers, but SE had over 5,500 people last year, it seems. That was before they sold off Crystal Dynamics and Eidos. I remember hearing that they shaved off around 1,000 people in that sale. If true, that would put them around 4,500 or so. They also folded Luminous Productions and supposedly moved most of the staff back into SE proper. Outside of Tokyo RPG Factory, which is pretty much just a handful of people, they don't have any other development subsidiaries. They do have various other parts of the company. Like SE Image, SE AI and Arts, Gangan Comics, and Taito. But I'm guessing those are a small portion of the overall staff.
Business Unit 1 handles Kingdom Hearts, FF7 remakes, and multiple other Final Fantasy games. Unit 2 handles Dragon Quest, Bravely, and Octopath. Among others. Unit 3 is the FF14 team who is now also putting out FF16. Unit 4 is basically all the more obscure projects for SE. It would not surprise me if Unit 3 was well over 1,000 people. Considering what it takes to run an MMORPG like FF14 and give it substantial content updates PLUS make a big game like FF16. Unit 1 is probably not far behind either. But I'm just guessing.

Seems like they put in a lot of passion into this game, and they're putting in everything that they have for it. Much much respect. Can't preorder right now due to financial constraints, maybe not even day 1, but I'm still excited nonetheless for the launch. The demo had me really wanting for more, especially in the story department. Really hope this revitalizes the excitement for Final Fantasy as a franchise.

If Zelda can have a "Pro HUD" I don't see why anyone else can't.

sadly not my first time. huge pet peeve though, i always feel betrayed by the game. either make the fight unwinnable or just make it a cutscene where the player loses.
There lot JRPGs that does this, Xenoblade games does this too.

That kind of worst because you might end up using items thinking you could win the fight but later find out its actually unwinnable.
They basically they do this after the boss fight.
Also more importantly in that Phoenix battle you survived the fight but you didn't kill Ifrit so I'm not sure whats the issue here.

So each of the 4 units is absolutely massive in scope.
Then they've a few other divisions probably doing R&D & Tools stuff etc for the whole company.

Yeah, if I had to guess, I'd say Unit 1 and Unit 3 are probably enormous by most studio standards. Unit 2 is probably a fairly good size as well. Especially as I heard that when Luminous was closed, most of the staff were moved into that unit. Probably to help work on DragonQuest 12. Unit 4 is likely much smaller in scope.
