PlayStation Blog - Final Fantasy XVI interview: worldbuilding, differing viewpoints and favorite characters

 

[Sithborg]

I find this answer, because just over in Bayonetta, oops, we got a black Bayo. God damn Japan.

 

[metaphysician]

Very, very, very racist...

Final Fantasy XVI Dev Has A Terrible Answer For Why The Game Is So White

I mean, if you ignore the entire rest of the interview response and focus on one sentence, sure. Also if you ignore the wildly different cultural context of someone coming from what is essentially an ethnically homogeneous society, sure. Also also if you skip over the really biting irony of telling the non-white guy from the non-western country that he is doing representation wrong.

*cough*

Oh, the cultural references is totally racist. The "ethnically monogamous" Japanese is a lie. And his whole reasoning it based on Japanese propaganda. He is applying what he thinks is true of Japan to Europe.

And amazingly, non-white countries can be racist. Japan is incredibly racist.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

He says there’s diversity in the game but gets into trouble with the overly long near word salad answer to answer for the notion of ‘why not more’.

Final Fantasy XVI exclusive to PS5 for at least six months - Gematsu

Well 6 months wouldn’t be long at all. 1 year even would be fine. Just don’t want it to be 2 years and with no definitive announcement or however long VII will be.

 

[Gee]

Well 6 months wouldn’t be long at all. 1 year even would be fine. Just don’t want it to be 2 years and with no definitive announcement or however long VII will be.

If you're talking about playing this and/or FF7R on the Xbox in a near future, well don't get your hopes up...

If this follows a similar path to FF7R then I expect this to come to PC after the timed exclusivity is over but will end up exclusive to ****ing EGS for 6 or 12 months before hitting Steam.

PC would be fine for me but I’d like it to have achievements like the other FFs. If not then I don’t mind which pc storefront it goes to as I have them all now after all these free giveaways.

Achievements will surely be included so you don't have to worry.

FF XVI release date: June 22, 2023



so grimdark a trailer it’s age-gated.

 

[BrollySupersj]

What in the hell is supposedly so mature in that trailer? Some blood splatter?

Anyway the game looking awesome. But no more trailers. We've had enough trailers. It's time for some gameplay walkthroughs. I want to see how it all works.

ESRB rates Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series for PS4, Switch - Gematsu

Finally. Fix the text, pls.

Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series coming to PS4, Switch in spring 2023 - Gematsu

The standard physical edition is a $75 limited edition exclusive only through their company store. Reports are that shipping is an additional $20 and they almost immediately sold out of them anyway.

Furthermore, via multiple confidential sources RPG Site understands that the console release of the Pixel Remasters will feature an adjusted font, making it likely that these screenshots were uploaded to this new listing by mistake. For us, this is also not a new development: we've been hearing word of the font changing for future ports on the grapevine for many months now.

Hopefully the demand encourages them to make more, and perhaps release them through other retails than their own online store. Or at least to make an actual physical collected release.

 

[Iceman]

Oh even these old ones aren’t coming to Xbox lol.

The combat for FF16 looks stupendous and intense as ****. I cannot wait to play it!

So, CHAOS is coming to Steam next month.

I am tempted.
