Reviving Final Fantasy: Are MMOs the Future?


Listen Later

In this episode of the Gaming Round Table, we delve deep into the world of Final Fantasy with a special focus on Final Fantasy XIV. Join us as we welcome back guests Cole, Moogan, and Scrag, who bring their unique insights into the current state of the game. We tackle the controversies and frustrations surrounding the Final Fantasy XIV community, questioning whether these represent standard cycles or signal larger issues for the game's future.

The conversation also expands to Square Enix's recent announcements about exploring turn-based JRPGs, hinting at a return to their roots. Our guests share their opinions on whether Final Fantasy should bifurcate into separate action and turn-based branches to satisfy diverse player expectations.

We also explore the realm of job identity and new features for the anticipated 8.0 expansion. With an unlimited budget as a playful hypothetical, ideas range from revitalizing the sub-job system to creating more complex roles within the game.

Our discussion wouldn't be complete without addressing the role of Yoshi P, whose influence on the franchise has been monumental, yet whose workload appears overwhelming. We ask if it's time for him to focus on new projects or even a brand-new Final Fantasy MMO.

Tune in to hear these perspectives and more, and stay plugged into the developments that could shape the future of this beloved gaming series!
