Check this out, Takashi Tokita recently stated that he wants to re-release The After Years again
-
I wonder if he's aware they already did a 3D remake of it for mobile/Steam (albeit minus voices)?
Either way, I'm personally not a fan of that one. IV's my favorite, but TAY retreads too many of the original plot points for my liking. It feels like a fanfic. I'd definitely be interested in the full-scale modern remake of the original game he proposes, though.
ID: hmp6v26ID: hmozpu3He's most likely aware of the 3D remake on Steam and iOS and probably thinks no one buys or plays them anymore.

TAY had a problem of storytelling. Having lots of characters is fine, but you need the time to develop them, what the game got instead is a bunch of scattered quests that hold very little depth. If they remake it they should work on expanding stuff.
ID: hmp7z3mI like TAY but I have to agree.

Honestly I don't like After Years at all. It's probably one of their lesser attempts at making a direct sequel to a mainline FF since it just basically repeats a lot of the story beats of the original minus Ceodore. Even the returning FFIV characters comment constantly about how familiar their journey this time is compared to the first one
I would appreciate a re-release or remaster of Complete Collection though. Have no idea why that version is still exclusive to PSP/Vita since it's probably my favorite version of IV
-
I hope Square puts resources into other more worthy projects, honestly.
ID: hmp3hqeThe Wiiware version of The After Years, which everyone seems to forget, has the same artstyle as the SNES/PS1 versions of FF4. If Square used that as a starting point then it wouldn't take them very long to match everything up with the pixel remaster.

It’s a decent enough game but lots of it felt really repetitive, and a lot of the plot beats were repeated. I liked all the new characters, but their balancing in battle was all over the place.
Maybe if they fix some things!
ID: hmpg27cHonestly it just didn't feel like a new game, it just felt like FF4 with updated graphics and the party occasionally recognizing what's going on.
-
I liked TAY but that games needs a complete overhaul. I know it originally was a fucking flip phone game but still. That game, if reworked, needs a massive redo from the ground up and needs to feel like a new experience. Not a copy and paste from IV.
-
but no ff6 remake ever.
ID: hmpsnn7The Pixel Remaster should be coming out soon. Supposed to be this year still even.
-
Just got done playing that one again. Not really sure what to go with next.
ID: hmoxx6qHave you ever considered checking out any fan games?
-
Unnecessary sequel doesn’t need an unnecessary remake.
ID: hmphcixYou should see ff7r.12 then.
-
There already is a 3D version of it in the same engine as IV DS, though. Is he not aware of that?
-
I wanted to like it but it felt like they focused on the wrong things. Edge was always the most boring character and giving him a full squad of playable apprentices wasn’t what I wanted.
-
I have the 3D remake but haven’t played it yet. Not sure when I will.
-
How about ff6 please, its such a criminally ignored title
-
The After Years is by far my least favorite Final Fantasy and I've played the overwhelming majority of them. I really, really don't think it deserves any more porting than what it's already gotten.
-
Why they didn't give the Octopath treatment to the remasters still baffles me.
ID: hmp3os7I think by that point Octopath-ing I-VI would go more into remake territory and that wasn't the intention
Dragon Quest III is getting that treatment and it looks way more remake-y than just taking one of the ports and upscaling it
ID: hmpmvmuIt'd require way more effort. We'd probably get one a year.
-
this honestly makes it sound like he doesnt know a 3D version of TAY on iOS actually exists
ID: hmp3tj6Seems more likely that he's ignoring the phone version because he wants to use the Wiiware version as a starting point so they can match it up stylistically with the pixel remaster.
ID: hmozh6sEither that or he thinks no one plays or buys it anymore.

It feels like a fanfic
The curse of all FF sequels, really.
