Didn't Yoshi-P say a dream project of his was to work on a Vagrant Story game with Matsuno? That would be my dream outcome here if Matsuno is getting the pre-production going while XVI is finished up.
Super unlikely, but let a man dream...
Unsung Story? It came out literally one year agoI remember backing a Kickstarter project he was involved with.
Still waiting on it lol
I was made aware of it by the poster right below you, DiipuSurotu =DPlease find out where you read this because holy hell, that would be incredible!
That was a long but really interesting interview. A little sad too, as Matsuno sounds kind of negative regarding his own work and talent.
And Yoshida is such a fanboy. He was half joking but his project to reunite Matsuno, Ito, Minagawa and Akihiko Yoshida, with himself acting as producer, for a new HD game set in the world of Vagrant Story is something I really want to see become reality. Hope he will be able to take a break from XIV someday, sooner than later .
His games sold millions lol, one of the most prolific creators at SquareHis games lack the mainstream appeal that other FF games have imo. They're usually less character-focused and tackle more mature themes. Even his content in FFXIV was met with a mixed reception. Fans of his past work love it, those who are uninitiated consider it dull
Still in early access.Unsung Story? It came out literally one year ago
Unsung Story on Steam
Unsung Story is a spiritual successor to Final Fantasy Tactics that takes place in a world where spells are cast as songs and a 77-year war has damaged the foundations of magic. Build a team to work backwards in time from the final battle to find a way to save Lasfaria.store.steampowered.com

I don't think the poster is wrong though that Matsuno as it stands today lacks mainstream appeal. Most people dont even know who he is anymore, outside of his fans.
Atleast thats what it seems like whenever he comes up when I talk with people.
I was basing my opinion based on my own experiences and XIV's players reaction to his content.
If we're talking about sales, brand recognition is an important factor. IIRC his non-ff games (Vagrant Story, Tactics Ogre, Crimson Shroud, etc) didn't 'sell millions'. Tactics Ogre might be the exception if you accumulate all of its re-releases, but even then I wouldn't put it in the same echelon as Square's heavy hitters.
I do think he consistently made quality games, but quality games aren't enough reason for Square to 'throw money at him'
Personal popularity represents nothing when it comes to selling games.
We already have interviews with Yoshi-P stating the positive reception of Matsuno's content was unbelievable and much higher than expected to the point that it boosted the sales of FF Tactics and FFXII.
FF Tactics sold over 3 millions, which sold better than any FF spin-offs to this day. Ivalice games have all been Every Ivalice game is a million seller outside of A2.
I don't know why Square Enix wouldn't throw money at him, when they tried to give Yuji Naka of all people a spin to end up with Balan Wonderworld.
Source? I'm pretty sure Crisis Core sold better.FF Tactics sold over 3 millions, which sold better than any FF spin-offs to this day.
Source?Matsuno: Rather than looking back at the past, I'm the kind of person who loves trying out new things. But when you reach my age, you start having thoughts like "How much time do I have left to keep making games?". And I'm not talking about retirement, I'm talking about death. Recently, I've been to more funerals than weddings, and it made me aware of how limited our time is. On places like Twitter, fans sometimes send me messages like "I really wish you'd make a new Ogre or FFT!!". When I see messages like this, a part of me thinks "I probably need to make one before I die".
Reading this comment I think this is one of the few chances to have a full game from Matsuno. Let's hope YoshiP manages to reunite Minagawa, Yoshida, Akiyama and Sakimoto for one last game in Ivalice.
It could always get World of Demons-ed, but that seems less likely since I imagine CyGames are probably pissed with whatever happened on Granblue.Cygames never did officially say what happened to Lost Order in the end... :(

😅
because it was the most boring thing I've played in ff14, both bozja and the ivalice were so boring I was basically nodding off during the cutscenes.Wow, must be the same crowd that didn't like Vagrant Story because "Ashley is too old"
There's no way he's writing on spec, not unless it isn't a game.Exciting news.
But... Is he just randomly writing a scenario to try and pitch to companies? Or is he actually writing for a game?
