They are still riding the FF7 wave. They will continue to do so until the end.

… SquareEnix still managed to exist after FF13?

I’m thinking a lot of them ride off of FFXIV, though it’s less visible much of the time. That game has a lot of real loyalists.

Yoshi P is the only man I know who has looked a board of directors in the eyes less than a month from release and said, “I’m pushing the release date back 2 weeks because the game isn’t polished to our standards” and gotten away with it.
I don’t think I’d give Square the time of day if it wasn’t something that he and the rest of the FFXIV team were proud of. I’m pretty sure that he’s said that he will never let them put any of that AI or crypto nonsense into his games.

I grew up with them when they were still two different companies and contrary to most fans, I still like their games.
