A secret of evermore remake in a similar engine as trials of mana would be great.

Somewhat underrated is Inindo: Way of the Ninja

I love the gameplay concept of recruiting people you encounter through talking/pestering them at the village or fighting them. If you're too weak, they may not want to join you. Timing is a factor as well, because there's a day and night cycle and the world calendar changes. As a ninja you could be recruited by the warlords to spy on, sabotage, or go to war with the neighboring warlords and gain land. War battles would be like a strategy game style. The main objective of the game was to conquer as much land as possible to ultimately go to war with the emperor Nobunaga's army. You do fight him as a last boss in a classic turn based FF style though

The severe downside of the game was the poor graphics and sound. The enemy encounters were too frequent in some areas.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
