How can fans fight back against the Final Fantasy irrelevancy in 2025?

I wish someone loved me as much as Barry loves FF7

by organically enjoying the games enough to play them, imagine that

>30 years ago in the 90's square made a good game
>tries to ride off the fame from fucking 30 years ago thinking they're owed something
this is literal peak gen-x faggot attitude. i really enjoyed ff7 but i'd never buy the garbage they make today. the younger generation doesn't give a shit either and why would they? cause some weird loser millennial faggot gap mouths in excitement about a 30 year old game?

just from the association with reddit millennials i'd never touch that garbage game if i was younger.

They don't, and that's how they would someday get SE to eat into their hand instead of the other way around.
Final fantasy is going to be on our terms or not at all.

I dont know, but definitely dont ask Atlus

Ain't this just a cashgrab? why would it make good numbers?

>>718549008
Because it is the supposedly holy grail of JRPGs, right?

It's pretty simple but SE is incapable of making it and they have to accept that at first the game won't be a mega blockbuster.

1) Bring back menu based combat but make it more interesting than just spamming Attack.

2) Drop the cringe Asian writing/humor and nu-anime tropes. Older FFs took themselves seriously 90% of the time and jokes were sparing enough to not feel obnoxious.

3) Simplify the design of everything. Post FFX characters are forgettable because they are over designed fanfic looking characters. And while they're simplifying character designs, simplify the graphics too. The more realistic vidya graphics get the less memorable and inviting they look. FF7 Remake is a prime example, where you have someone straight out of an anime walking around generic looking normies in normal looking locations for most the game. Lower the graphics down and stylize the fuck out of everything. And let characters be sexy again, Tifa wouldn't be half as popular if her remake burkha had been the original design.

4) Find someone who can make incredible memorable orchestral music and let them cook.

You've literally never played 4 or 5

Ah yes, those whimsical Final Fantasies where you start off as a dark edgelord knight brutally invading other nations and as a grief stricken wandering loner who has to watch a beloved party member die at his feet in addition to tons of other deaths in them. So silly and light-hearted, totally indistinguishable from nu-FF with its musicals about being bald and hour long fan service anime beach episode scenes!

Talk to me more about Tellah being a pervert, Cid being a retard, Porom constantly making jokes, and the dancing character in each town (like the frog, pig, or bearded man with a female body)

Who would play a mobile gacha game on steam

>>718551228
Worse. Thats the mobile version

>>718547892 (OP)
EOSing not soon enough.

>>718551228
Ah yes Anon, that's my screen shot, not the first image of Stella Grave I pulled online. You sure shamed me.

>>718551391
Final Fantasy Anthology is the only way to play that game anon. I wouldn't have even entertained a screenshot of something else

the FF series is probably the most widely discussed series on the majority of gaming boards?? yoshi p just made a big featured appearance at gamescom...
be a hater if you want but at least try to make some sense bud

i made an ai image of squall last night therefore final fantasy is relevant

lol you forgot your arrow Barry

They are mad that there's no one to bump their Aerith threads in a certain timeslot (when jeets and SEA spergs are sleeping)

>>718547892 (OP)
No point in fighting for it. Just let it be and find acceptance. The world and newer generations have moved on a long ass time ago. It's only relevant to millennials and older generations who are waiting years and years, release after release, for Square-Enix to give them that same high they had when they played the Squaresoft era games. It ain't coming back you guys...

>>718547892 (OP)
Squaresoft would never let something like this happen.
