Ivany2008 06/14/21 6:51:24 PM #36:	I don't think they have done bad for themselves but I do wish they had a branch company that could make their classic games. Talking about Final Fantasy 1-9 style rpgs, tactics, secret of mana, terranigma, all that fun stuff. This Square-Enix seems to push Marvel games which is fine if your into that, but I'm not. They also seem to push this idea that they are good at making action rpg games, which they are not. Sure they made Secret of Mana, but that was 27 years ago, and if I'm being honest, Enix 1-up'd them with Terranigmas combat system. Might not be the best game in the world but its a treasure that not enough people know about. They have a formula that works but they refuse to use it. ATB rpg with a landscape similar to a Final Fantasy 9. But for some god awful reason they keep going back to trying to be Devil May Cry even down to hiring one of their former designers. I love Square-Enix to death but their business model is cash before quality. It works... I'm just not a fan of it. I'd rather see them barely break even on a game that is outstanding than release garbage based on recently released films. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:955009839] in Square's h...

Talking about Final Fantasy 1-9 style rpgs, tactics, secret of mana, terranigma, all that fun stuff. They have some of that with the Bravely series, Octopath, and project triangle strategy, but it would be nice if there were more frequent releases of those kinds of games. --- PSN/GT: BigDaffej <cite>EmbraceOfDeath posted [p:955010535] in Square's h...
