Im taking a break from X & YouTube to focus on other projects/writing/life stuff/fewer distractions/quitting smoking etc. Not sure how long. I suck at planning ahead lol. I talked about it on stream but heres a vid explaining whats up. Have a good week! https://t.co/hbSMsN1a8B
Square Enix is making BIG white pill moves imo. Forspoken studio shut down and Hamaguchi (FF12/Rebirth), Asano (Octopath), and other RPG talent promoted to Executive Officer positions.
This new direction is giving SquareSoft vibes 👏
Some personal news to share - I have been appointed as an Executive Officer at Square Enix. I will do my best in order to continue delivering appealing games to as many fans as possible. Thank you so much for your continued support!!

Lol. Here's how they can (maybe) save this:
1. Make her temporary alt universe filler with >10 minutes of screen time
2. Converge the multiverse timelines with Secret Wars
3. Introduce real Silver Surfer & Dr. Doom
4. Cast Keanu Reeves & Henry Cavil respectively
5. Profit
Julia Garner will reportedly play an alternate version of the Silver Surfer, taking on the role of Shalla-Bal, which potentially confirms a fan theory that the new Fantastic Four movie is set in an alternate version of the MCU. https://t.co/gaZBtXASxZ
@aresmen1 Well tbf if that's true and they're leaking it via Deadline after the shareholders meeting then they are definitely aware of the situation they're in lol.
@Joe65688696@The_Epic_Mike Because SquareSoft was based and SE shutting down Forespoken studio and veteran game devs taking over the company rn is a W? I think its self explanatory. Esp if you know who these people are.
Of course no one is talking about this bc there's no outrage potential. Haven't seen a single person or content creator on my timeline mention this lol. White pills aren't cool or something idk. X is boring.

@Joe65688696@The_Epic_Mike You get a hi five because you would be helping me get people to pay closer attention and spread good news to their followers.
"Or maybe a lot of people didn't hear about it. But sure blame the outrage."
- OBVIOUSLY I'm not mad at people who didn't hear about it lol. Why would I do that?
- I AM blaming outrage. And I am objectively correct in highlight the fact that outrage is a thing and a problem.
What are you adding to this conversation besides arguing for no reason?
You came in hot defending a post clearly attacking rage baiters exclusively. How else am I supposed to assume your motivation?
Also, you assumed that I was attacking people who haven't been paying attention or haven't heard the news. So if you want to accuse me of making assumptions about you, look in the mirror lol.
"Why dont you send it to em?"
Why do you assume that I haven't done this a million times and have determined that its a waste of time because they won't cover it?
Why are you being unnecessarily defensive and pretending that I'm making this up lol? Do you think I'm talking about you or something?
The reality is, positive news about Square Enix is bad for optics if you want to maintain the outrage meter at apocalyptic levels for the sake of interactions. This is how social media works, dude. This is why people call me a shill or a consoomer for saying something positive (and objectively true) about a company that I'm supposed to be boycotting and roasting 24/7 for the culture war. You know this lol. You should stop running defense for rage bait.
@Joe65688696@The_Epic_Mike Lol if you think I'm wrong why dont you send this to the people who think I'm talking about and see if they cover it. Good luck.
Im not talking about normies who who dont pay attention or dont hear about it. I'm talking about people who's job/passion it is to cover these things. If ur gonna cover Tifa's boobs getting censored for 2 seconds of a 4 year old game you should also cover a massive creative management shift within the same company.
And dont gaslight and pretend outrange isn't 99% the focus of a lot of people on this stupid app lmao you know that I know better than that.
@nhamaguc I love the FF 16 story but I would like more RPG customization and reasons to interact with weapon upgrades etc. 16 was a bit too simple imo.
