Final Fantasy XV is quite the anticipated game, and now Square Enix has released three new screenshots for the title which show three very different places. You have a nice drive along the coast, the front of a hotel in the city of Restalm where you can rest your party, and a dungeon in Ido which apparently hasn’t had any humans venture in it for a long time. Something else may be lurking in the shadows though.
Final Fantasy XV doesn’t have a clear release date yet, though it is expected next year on PS4 & Xbox One.

9 years, 1 name change, the disastrous launch of FF14, and the terrible and they give us 3 (quite nice looking) screenshots.
I don’t think that’s quite enough to get me interested. Of course, Final Fantasy can go wrong many times and then still give us something good again. (Controversial opinion, but after 7 and 8, it went wrong with 9. Which just wasn’t very good. But then 10 was great)
We shall see. Next year though? Why do I think it’ll be at least 2017?

Because you are a pessimist my friend! ;) However, you’re also possibly right which is a pain in the arse. However, do think that if any company can release a game that’s actually good after development hell, it would be Square Enix.

There’s a good chance it might work out, definitely. Over the past 20 years, they’ve only got it wrong about 1 in every 3 or 4 games (in the main, numbered series)
7 and 8 were great. 9, not so much.
X and X-2, also great. 11 was some online thing so doesn’t count, does it? (Not back then, anyway)
13 had a pair of good games (despite what some people might say), and 1 absolutely terrible game. The worst one ever.
14 got it right eventually (not played it myself), so I guess 15 might just work and then get an unnecessary and terrible sequel.
Just think, if they hadn’t delayed it so long, 13 wouldn’t have had 2 sequels. Which is a shame, because the first sequel improved on the first game, but also a good thing, because Lightning Returns was an enormous steaming pile of crap.
