inal Fantasy series producer Yoshinori Kitase, who also served as director on Final Fantasy VII, has once again commented on the prospect of a remake of that game, in a talk with Eurogamer.

 
 
 
According to Kitase, “staff availability and budget” are two of the biggest obstacles that prevent the remake from being greenlit, but there’s also another barrier in its way—Kitase’s own motivation to work on such a project.
 
 
 
“Even if I casually say I would like to do that, because it would be a huge project I would have to motivate myself to the level that I really am prepared to take on this huge responsibility,” Kitase said.
 
 
 
He continued: “I don’t know if those three things will happen simultaneously. It has to tick lots of very big boxes. I won’t rule out the possibility, but it would take a lot to make it happen. But should I ever take it on, it would have to be the biggest project I’ve done. My life work. So I would have to be as highly motivated as that to end up with something I’m very happy with. It’s

VI > VII

 

Don't even like VII. Other than the music nothing about the game I like. Would love a Final Fantasy VI remake on 3DS in the same Vein as Final Fantasy III-IV on DS.

Would rather they put there effort into something new than spending a AAA budget on a remake.

^This basically says "I don't feel like it."


"So if Zero Suit Samus is fanbait for guys, where is the fanbait for girls? Why isn’t Captain Falcon wearing a thong or sporting a chest twice the size of his last model? Why doesn’t Mario have an absurd crotch buldge holding in his 10 inch slice of manhood? Why doesn’t Yoshi look like a Fist of the North Starcharacter.
 
That, my friends, is why the design is sexist."~Angelo M. D'Argenio-4/17/2014

Because Square Eenix isnt Square soft.

They no longer have what it takes. Their world is not square, any longer.


But someone still does, the greatness of square soft is still out there.

KH is a lame rubbish series. Started off as an interesting concept but really rough first game and turned into a pretentious over convoluted bunch of bullshnit to the point the series is a total joke now. They will likely have Haley play a 16 year old til he is 65.

Given the past 3 FF games. XV will be another over budget super pretty game that plays like a super budget mediocre at best game that can't decide what genre it wants to be a part of. Nomura is a lazy moron. Toriyama can't direct his way out of a wet paper bag anymore and Kitase has cum stained the offices of Square for Lightning. The people who Made Square are making Project Pheonix at Monolith and Mistwalker. Square is left with unwanted scraps of idiots. I will say this once more. X>XV Becuase Monolith > Square.

Level-5,Falcom,Mistwalker,Monolith>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SquareEnix
