Not sure where to put this, tell Square Enix how much their games blow or rule: https://twitter.com/FinalFantasy/status/574013714069778433

Here's a cute little option:

Not like it'll make much difference, but I recommend everyone who actually does this shit selects the demo option for great justice.

I chose the footage thing. Demos are not always accurate, they don't get updated and put a lot of pressure on development that could have been used in the final cut.

Also game genres in 2015 are not divided by mechanics but platforms and monetiztion models

I could think of a billion other things that developers do that are worse in regard to pressure on development and production of a final version.

Getting a vertical slice stable before release date is a milestone on itself, which takes away from working on the main branch and the release milestone. Works for any software piece. And you've heard about the pre-con crunch from many sources this very year.

If you mark Deus Ex as your favorite series they also ask you some more specific questions about it.

It is a good opportunity for you guys to fill in that what you liked about it is massive levels, and what you did not like are small levels caused by consoles and XP for actions instead of objectives.

One game you would most want Square Enix to make?
"A proper Legacy of Kain sequel written by Amy Hennig" :smug:

The reason of my chuckle was that - the games are so bug ridden that sacrificing some things allow devs to improve game. Or by "improve" you mean "closer to playable state" or more chance to launch without serious issues (crash, freeze and all that this exclusive for PC and avaliable now for consoles).
You know, I never worked in the industry, I'm just customer tired of that (broken) crap.

Under further comments I also asked for their :desu: (Kingdom Hearts, Chrono Trigger, Bravely Default etc.) games to be ported to PC if they want me to play that shit. Also to make Tomb Raider games like they used to, because they sold for a reason and not listen to Polygay and Cocktaku.

I asked them for another Sleeping Dogs game or Legacy of Kain title. Thinking about it I'd also like something like Startopia again.

And yeah, second page is entirely dependent on what you pick as the last answer. Legacy of Kain, Tomb Raider, Chrono Trigger and Thi3f seems to entirely skip it.

If you pick Finaru Fantasy you get this:

Action role-playing games (e.g. Fallout, :negative:

EDIT: When they asked what game I'd like to see them make in the future I said "I have no good expectations about Square Enix products made in the future" and explained in the next text box.
