Final Fantasy XIII-2 Opens to dismal sales

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Opens to dismal sales

Probably not the final, fantasy, but still worrying enough.

FFXIII-2 came out last week in Japan to the tune of half a million sales, which is around a third of the sales the original XIII saw, just over two years ago.

Whilst anyone who makes games would love that amount to shift, the game cost a couple million to make and half a mill is quite a low sale count when shooters are blowing up the market with almost a billion dollars in just a matter of weeks.

Squenix's franchise of FFXIII Titles continues into the nwe year with FF Versus XIII, and this recent lack of sales comes only months after Square said that their brand has been "greatly damaged" due to the troubled release of the MMORPG, Final Fantasy XV.

Chris Avellone Says Player Convenience hurts RPGs

Chris Avellone: "Player Convenience" hurts RPG's

And enjoying having a player fanbase hurts game companies

Chris Avellone recently spoke with Industry Gamers about the current state of video games and where they are headed in terms of genre and gameplay. Avellone is a veteran, having worked on Planetscape:Torment, Fallout 2 and of course, Fallout New Vegas, Avellone knows how people play and yet seems that desiging for certain types of players can be frustrating.

Speaking with Industry Gamers he said that "the 'advances' have been more for player convenience - sometimes good, sometimes bad - in my opinion. Journals, quest compasses that point directly to the goal and show you the route, auto-maps, etc. are helpful; at the same time, I think it undermines the thrill of victory and discovery and a lot of what makes an RPG an RPG"

I've heard of the argument that over the past decade game designers have gotten soft on players and provide them with too much when it comes to games. I think Avellone is making a stance more on just the RPG genre itself rather than calling out flawed game design. Avellone was a lot more double-edged about the situation saying that in terms of non-interface elements he felt "the idea of morally grey choices and more focus on actions and consequences" have been great "for all RPG's."

In the past five years, RPG's have gotten a bit more sophisticated from the old Final Fantasy route of world ending, go help out. Avellone's own Planetscape Torment began to break the mould by introducing more of a grey system of good verus evil, rather than just fighting a big bad. There was another addition to Avellone enjoying new-gen RPG's with voice acting has really helped the RPG along well.

Avellone also talked about how the RPG genre is something that should really be added to gameplay more than just tacked on, for game's that do genre-bending. "Developers are seeing the worth in customization, levelling, dialogue, choice and reactivity and other elements that would normally be considered RPG mechanics and introducing them into multiple titles." Hopefully, Avellone will be working on the South Park game and making it worth it's weight in RPG gold.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will not be at TGS

Posted Aug 8, 2011 at 11:01PM EST by Mabie A. Listed in: PS3 Tags: final fantasy versus xiii, Square Enix

The disappointment continues for Final Fantasy Versus XIII fans. No, Square Enix will not be taking out the much-awaited game for a stroll at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show later this year.

We can't help but wonder why Squeenix is putting all the fans through this kind of torture. Well, as it turns out, Tetsuya Nomura has already planned out something different in his mind for FF Versus XIII, at least insofar as when its next big reveal is to be.

The disappointment continues for Final Fantasy Versus XIII fans.
