Uncovered Final Fantasy XV Event Page source hints at PC release

Pictures have emerged from the source code of the website to NeoGAF.

Kalebninja3754d ago

:O Yeeeeeees! This needs to happen, I need to play the game at the best it can be. I hope they don't delay the PC release because they have no excuse since it was developed and can run on PC.

illty3754d ago (Edited 3754d ago )

i dont think it will be delayed, now that square is using denuvo in all of their latest games.

Theo11303754d ago

Well that and even if they only sell like 500k, it's still profitable since at most they only have to give up 30% to steam for publishing. The rest is all profit for them

Eonjay3754d ago

Not really. They still have to pay for development, marketing and other costs. The profit would be that Steam Revenue minus the cost of production.

Theo11303754d ago

@Eonjay Well the marketing is probably going to be split among 2 or 3 platforms. So lets say it cost them $10 million to port, it would take them about 250k copies on PC to break even. And that's assuming that Square have a 30% royalty to steam, it could be lower, especially since there isn't a ton of JRPG's on PC.

What I'm saying is since they don't have to pay to make the psychical game, ship and take returns on unsold games, give a cut to the stores, it doesn't have to sell a ton to make the money back or be profitable.

Relientk773754d ago

It will probably come to PC in the future

AnotherProGamer3754d ago

They already confirmed it will come at a later date after the console release

Majin-vegeta3754d ago

Of course it will come to PC...just later cuz they wanna release it where there biggest fanbase are at consoles.

Immediately thought of the El Dorado zombie dudes in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

raWfodog371d ago (Edited 371d ago )

Not necessarily a ‘horror’ moment, but I remember feeling really tense and anxious when the Flood were first introduced in the original Halo. I never felt more on edge or nervous in that whole game as that moment. I think it was the whole buildup that something terrible was coming but you didn’t know exactly what.

Another non-horror game that had me feeling it was Subnautica. The deep dark depths, and knowing that sea monsters were lurking nearby, had me jumping at every sound.

NettosGameRoom371d ago

That scene where you first see them attack is pretty crazy!

Relientk77371d ago

I remember being scared of the Asylum level in the most recent Thief game from 2014.

always liked 15, but the development was shch a shitshow. it could have been so much more.

but Tabata did a good job with what he had regardless

DivineHand125506d ago

Ff15 was a missed opportunity from square as they transitioned from turn based to real time.

One of the issues is that it was 30 fps. The combat mechanics required precision dodges to activate Noctis teleport ability and it was difficult to do at 30 fps. I am glad they rectified that in FF16. The story and flow also felt like it went through a chopshop similar to how some live service games end up when they are trying to meet a deadline. Those extra episodes they sold as dlc should have been in the maingame.

FF15 is one of the weaker entries in the series.

Z501505d ago

Dodges don't activate the teleport ability. Teleport was R1 + O. Dodge was just the O button. Explain the Black Hood (the item that automatically Dodges for you)

TheNamelessOne506d ago

Ah yes; FF XV.
The beginning of me coming to the realization the series was no longer for me.

Michiel1989505d ago

16 was a lot better, I think 15 was just a big mess with how development went and all. The music though, one of the best in the series, probably the only reason I finished the game.

Cacabunga505d ago

At least FF15 had RPG elements . 16 was just an action game from beginning to end.

Michiel1989505d ago

I rather have a good action game than a bad rpg with 2 button combat

Cacabunga505d ago (Edited 505d ago )

Then call it something else then FF. I got scammed with FF16. Nothing of what i expected it to be.
Even the action is bad in it, especially after the demo section where absolutely nothing happens until the very end.

FF15 isnt a great game but it has some variety at least.

CrimsonWing69506d ago

That initial trailer with the Leviathan fight was the game I wish we got. The actual retail release was watchdogged to all Hell and while there’s enjoyment to be had in the game, it’s such an incomplete product and so many elements feel so slapped together without any cohesion.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I loved fishing, cooking, and the first third of the game, but I much rather they made a story that didn’t feel barely there and the the last third of the game didn’t feel so rushed and unfinished.

Becuzisaid505d ago

Every time a party member left for a period of time screamed future paid dlc. It was horrible.

Imagine Dagger and Steiner making the party go to sleep in Lindblum in FF9 disc 1 and then taking off to Alexandria by foot themselves, but then never playing their side of the adventure in disc 2 when they smuggle her through the South Gate in pickles, take the cable car and fight the Waltz, head to Treno and start the quest to find Supersoft. They just eventually reunite with the main party in the future without explanation of what went on in their adventure.

Or Sephiroth's backstory in the famous Kalm flashback being added as a dlc pack. Same goes for Vincent, Cid, or Yuffie for that matter.

Oh and anything to do with Jenova, the Ancients, Aerith, her mom and Gast, shoved into a 2 hour CG movie or 5 hour anime ministries that's considered required viewing for anything in the main game to make sense or have characters actually be interesting.

I enjoyed FF15 at the time, and finished it, but it's bright spots are marred by a bad development cycle and a worse marketing scheme.

CrimsonWing69505d ago

What’s sad is when I watched a vid on the entire story (that wasn’t properly told in the actual game)!it was really solid and could’ve been one of the most epic stories in any FF. I think a lot of the compilation and cross-media stuff really f*cked it all up.

gurp505d ago

FFXV was underrated in my opinion
I have played all of the final fantasy games, and I loved this game
turn based to me takes too long, I like active battle
the extra dlc and chapters should have been included in the original release, but it is nice that they fixed the game later

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion757d ago (Edited 757d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled757d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?
