A thread about SE, #FinalFantasyXVI and TGA:
What makes FFXVI not nominated for GOTY even funnier is SE has paid TGA so much for awards and nominations. Below you can see how they were 2021 and 2022's biggest sponsors and "coincidentally" won awards. #TheGameAwards#FF16#FFXVI
@Jeppebj@aramisx I never said they were bigger. But Square Enix has absolutley branded the show with FFXIV. It's one of the show's biggest sponsors FOR YEARS. No doubt they blocked WOW from being nominated for anything and forced FFXIV into nominations.
@goobbuegaga I hope you unsubscribed immediately.
It is unacceptable, truly. FFXIV should NOT tolerate it by any mean. Its almost 2026. It plays like a game from 1998, I am NOT kidding.
@Puddi05 Hey, so those layoffs at Square Enix were because the company is doing really well, right? You said, again and again, that SE was doing better than ever, despite their reports saying otherwise.
Companies that are doing well have layoffs two years in a row, right? Right?!
I told this person many times that they would be laid off from Square Enix. That they are going down the wrong path.
This is how they responded. Now look what has happened.
@SkywardWing The layoffs arent about AI replacement. FF16, FF7R and now FFXIV are MASSIVE failures. This is undeniable. Really, these layoffs are a response to Square being unable to keep its only-known franchise alive. They didnt get the memo its dead, yet still poured millions into it.
@Wario64 I genuinely tried to help every Square employee I ran into on twitter. I told them straight up to get their resumes ready...that they would be laid off. Did they believe me? No they didnt.
I GENUINELY tried to help them. Anyone with eyes can see Square is a sinking ship.
But don't worry...FFXVI and FF7R sold well and people still play FFXIV. Everything is fine, really, and FF is bigger than ever.
Square fanboys truly are the most delusional.
Once again, I'm right...and always will be.
Square Enix announces more layoffs as part of US and Europe restructuring - “Nearly all areas” of Square Enix’s Western business affected by latest cuts, it tells staff

@MikeOdysseyYT That is flawed logic. But even so, the DS primarily shared its time in the sun with the Wii, not Gamecube. DS lived from 2004-2011. Only 2 of those years were with the Gamecube.
@OsbergJamie@maximilian_ Ben Starr is the connecting string between E33 and FF. To not make that connection is a clear indication Square doesnt actually know the game. They identified its popular, is better than any FF in the past 15 years, and was a financial success. Theyre just trying to seem cool.
@Wario64 You can TELL Square doesnt really care about 33 and is just using them for puiblicity. Otherwise, this would have been with FF16 Clive.
Yknow...the guy Ben Starr is the lead in both FF16 and 33? But they didnt do that, you know why? Because Square doesnt actually care lol
@Wario64 Some TRUE desperation here from Square. Theyre trying SO HARD to stay releveant that theyre leeching onto the more successful, and better, games.
This is some shameless behavior lol.
