Stranger of Paradise bombs in Japan

Quote:
Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin sales have been disappointing in Japan.

As shown in a tweet by Game Data Library (that focuses on Japanese game sales data), this latest game in the series is the fourth lowest debut for a Final Fantasy spin-off.

The data is for physical sales in Japan only, but between both PS5 and PS4 the game sold 46,849 copies in its first week.

I don't know how good or bad this game turned out to be, but I do know this is good news for those of us waiting for a dramatic price drop. I think it will be free on Playstation Plus/Xbox Live by the fall/winter.

They released it in the elden ring window, and the game is essentially "final soulsborntasy"

Square always doing the dumbest ***.

That's exactly it. Elden Ring, Horizon, Tiny Tina, it's not the time to release a cheap knock off. I knew it wasn't going to sell any copies.

Hey, when the CEO says openly that "no one games for entertainment any more" I don't really expect much coming from that direction I will enjoy.

Sigh suddenly I feel the urge to replay Super Mario RPG but it isnt available on Switch.

I wanted to give some cash to Nintendo but I guess I will need to resort to piracy.

I would guess games for entertainment are kinda the niche of cellphone games.

I suppose what he meant was that players playing in dedicated machines for game wants some sort of experience, not just entertainment.

FF7R, XIV - Endwalker and XIV - Shadowbringers have done well out of the latest FF SE games. Not too big on their mobile side of things but Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia is still going well from what I've seen.

You keep saying that, doesn't make it true. The numbers and widespread fan reception say otherwise. So you're just repeating your really bad opinion based on nothing as hes asking what was successful.

There were... outside factors contributing to that. More spite against than want for.

That and probably their cult following. The game followed the exact same forumula as previous expansions, so not like it was doing anything new. Doesn't mean it didn't profit tho, I'm sure that cash shop alone gains them tons of money. They created their candy crush in all aspects.

I just had an amazing grilled cheese.

Garlic toast, sharp cheddar and swiss with a tomato basil bisque.

So *** good. It's the details of how they made the bisque though. Damn. Light orange coloring and not overpowering.

And now I'm doomed to a lifetime of seeking a bisque that good and a lifetime of disappointment. never try new stuff!

I actually don't like doing the "soak" thing. I like to get things over with. Whenever I wash dishes, even the dirtiest ones I'll usually try to scrape it off in sections. At worst, I'll give it a once-over every minute or so while I wash other dishes.

Your taint for anything XIV is hilarious, keep it up.

God you made me go and read that nonsense. Beyond the fact that popular =/= good the game absolutely does suck. It's a shame, as it has some good aspects, they just butchered the main part of the game. I get it, they're in it to make $ and try to appeal to as many people as possible.

The irony in not seeing the same model being applied to both and hating the one and loving the other is fairly amusing though.

Talking about success of games, opinion of the game itself has no bearing. He asked what games were successful from SE.

Go back to your cave loser. I knew some dummy like you would bite if I said that. Just because I despise candy crush or minecraft, doesn't mean it isn't successful. Hilarious that you jump to defend XIV in any thread it appears in lol.

He asked, what game from SE has been successful recently? People told him games that were successful in terms of sales/reviews. You gave your opinion and it didn't even answer his question. If anyone was going off your opinion and not sales and general consensus, they would think the game performed poorly and it certainly didn't. I find it so hard to believe that people with such high post counts can't even read a simple post and understand what its saying lol. It wasn't that long.
