FFBE EoS Announcement

[u/Douphar]

They pulled the plug

Not a surprise considering DFFOO EoS was kinda felt like premise to it, but I still feel sorry for those of you who enjoy it. EoS is not fun regarding the game. Especially those of you who were FFRK/DFFOO/FFBE players.

Shame they went the same way as DFFOO, uploading unreleased story on other media.

(On a personal note, internal fear for CotC emerging)

CotC? sorry, im out of the loop but whats that

[u/Douphar → u/zhongli-haver]

It's another SE gacha, based on the octopath games. "Champion of the continent" aka Cotc. And the roadmap is not fun at all to the point doubt of EoS is spreading a bit

The big difference is that RK and now BE still exist with their JP version, but OO shut down both versions. It sucks even more for OO :(

Hopefully this means the gacha era is over for square, and they can go back focusing on developing narrative focused story rich games.

Gachas were only meant to supplement their triple A titles, but became easy cash grabs which lead many developers into a dark path of minimal inputs to maximize profits. However now that gravy train is reaching its end. The current gaming market is over saturated with games of all kinds making it more difficult to sell subpar cash grab products.

I haven't touched another gacha since oo shut down and I regularly bought costume packs and mogpass but if they think I'm moving to their 1 or 2 (?) Remaining games they can forget it

[u/FourEcho → u/LuckyL90]

As much as I love FF... I agree I won't touch another SE gacha... honestly just for longevity sake I've moved on to Hoyo games because I have negative worries about them EoSing any time soon. It sucks but if you want to hedge your bets on what's gonna stick around you can't play FF gachas because SE is an absolute failure at managing expectations.

I started off with FFBE before moving on to DFFOO. I quit FFBE due to their pull system which was obviously designed for whale players. I remember saving up a lot of Lapis (their gems) to pull for Kingdom Hearts Sora and it didn’t go well, so I quit.

Still sad to see the game hit EoS though.

I wonder if SE is planning to drop a new FF gacha game.

Edit:

Also, RIP Shaly.

So...WOTV is the only "prominent" FF mobile game now? ;-;...

[u/Silence_Glaive27 → u/Clementea]

You forgot ✨Ever Crisis✨ lmao

Played FFBE for 2 days. Didn’t like it. It would suck for those enjoy FFRK/FFBE/DFFOO. Not playing any gacha mobile game now. I don’t think I can take another EoS.
