Square just a business?

[Meier Link]

I think I can easily summarize why people wanted Dissidia and want Duodecim for the PS3: graphics. Which is sad because graphics are not the most important feature & hardly ever. It does seem that a portion of the gaming community focus too much on graphics.

Or it could be the fact that some of us do not own a PSP and have no intentions of buying one and just want to be able to play a ported title on the PS3. Thats just me though. Already owning one Sony product that is superb makes it kind of hard to dish out the money for a PSP when there is only 3-4 titles that I want to actually play.

Back on topic. Square is DEAD. That is a simple fact. Square died the day the merger went through with Enix. Hence the move over from Squaresoft to SquareEnix.

Square as most of us knows it has been dead for around 10 years now.

Now on to being really on topic; SE is definantly a company now. Now doubts about it. SE is about profit.

Take XIV for example, they released a game before fully beta testing it and even in the beta that they put out they didn't listen to the negative responses.

FFVII DoC: could of been epic if they had not worried about trying to make a profit and more on game play, less linear story line and over all replayability.

In the end they chose to pump out something that would be profitable knowing the FFAC was coming up and trying to get new and old players of VII pumped about AC.

Then again, I can flip the coin and call us sheep. We linger on the fact that we hope that the next release will be the next epic game like some of the games of yore.

MQ had more potential then XIII, there I said it. Sad thing is I picked up XIII and only have 6 hours logged to XIII and I can comfortably say that. As sad as that seems.
