[11/01] "The World Will Get Answers Soon" on FFX HD

[Raiiyokuu]

Square Enix Europe has told a fan on Twitter that “the world will get answers soon” on Final Fantasy X HD. “We promise,” they added.
The PlayStation 3 and PS Vita update was first announced at Sony’s Tokyo Game Show press conference in 2011. Since then, we’ve only seen a small series of non-news.
Similarly, earlier this week, when pressed for information on Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Square Enix Europe said the game is “still currently in development,” and that while there are “no dates to announce at this time,” they will “keep you informed.”
Thanks, Hachima Kikou.

In other words they haven't touched Versus in ages and thank you for reminding them it exists

I am amused that FF10 HD is getting such a huge fuss over it

This is ultimately sad but very true. With Lightning being the dead dessicated horse that it has been the last 4 years they shouldn't be all too surprised that people are dying to get their hands on something different...even if it's a game they've already played before

Versus is long lost in Final Fantasy mythology, so X will offer hopes of a good FF to play on a console.

The only reason I care about the X HD remake is because I never did get a chance to play it when it was out on the ps2.

Plus...something that doesn't have Lightning in it will be so great <3.

Oh I totally understand the FFX HD hype. FFX on PS2 is still brilliant--having it on PS3/Vita with enhanced graphics will be incredible. I honestly think X is, objectively, overall the best FF game (FFXII subjectively being my personal favorite). It isn't just that people are ready for something new in the Final Fantasy world, it's that X really is that good.

"Give you answers on what? Playstation Vi-what? Vi-Vi-Vita? A Final Fantasy game for the Vita? Ohhhh, oh right! THAT thing. Look, I told you! We have no plans to put Type-0 on there! Wait, what? You didn't say Type-0? You said FFX? Where did you get the idea that we were going to put FFX HD on the Vita? Huh? You say that we announced a FFX HD for PS3 and Vita a little while back? Ohhhh, uhh, er, ah - we uhh, err, aaaaanyway, please look forward to the full beta testing of our fantastic rework of FFXIV and for the elegant, swift, gallant and beautiful Raitoringu coming soon!....huh? What the heck is Versus? Are you making things up now? Look, all I can say is, please look forward to ARR: FFXIV and LR: FFXIII. We really really really want you stupid gaijin westerners to buy them."

could be true, there are also rumors going around of a first production event on the 25th of this month, with FFXHD, Versus 13 and Lightning Returns all on show

You know what they always say, if it's too good to be true, it probably is.

I sure hope they're wrong this time. FFXHD and Versus XIII news in one day would be awesome.

I don't think it's true.

25th is pretty soon anyway. If there is going to be an event like that, they'd have announced it ages ago.

And after reading that those fans are again pissed off

Ahh gotta love the Square Enix teasing the fans...like they did with Versus all these years... "more info coming soon... JUST KIDDING!"

 

[Rapture]

Re-posting because:

Lmfao! Yeahhhhhhhh they know news is important to SE fans. Of course, it has to be news of THEIR choice.


...like Lightning news

 

[Starships]

Meh. Knew that this was going to happen. You are so predictable Square-Enix.

 

[AuronX]

Ok, now I'm officially confused. So..."soon" != "on the horizon"...then what the heck does "on the horizon" mean? Next year?

Sounds to me like SE could stand to have been clearer on both instances

 

[NeoTesseract]

Not really looking forward to FFX HD. It was not that good of an RPG to begin with. I would like for Square Enix to move on to more important matters. Perhaps deliver that dusty moldy game called Versus XIII

 

[Paddy McGee]

Answers will come eventually. I would personally prefer Square to come out with something as a surprise instead of advertising everything they plan. Atleast that way, shit won't boil in the pot when no news is heard.


That being said, I want to see FFX HD over Versus simply because I'm sick of the bullshit surrounding it. At least announce that it has been cancelled instead of keeping us in the dark.

Needless to say, the original branch is in need of some order, and should perhaps follow suit of the teams that developed Dogs and Hitman- they don't seem to be as sloppy.

 

[Martel]

Isn't that the same line they gave the fans when they asked for more information on Versus...multiple times?

I doubt FFX HD is as much of a windup, but I think Square Enix have Entish ways of looking at time: "soon" to them is "in half a decade or so" because of course, we little people are always so concerned with time, always scurrying about and expecting things at unreasonable times.

Sometimes I wish they'd just answer with "Nope." and get it over with. They did that with the idea of an FFVII remake, and look at how often we hear about that these days. We'll shut up and about it if you shut up about it, Square Enix.
