Now where are all the dumb fucks who were defending the remasters. See that happens when you support shitty practices like that. Enjoy your remasters instead of new games.
Square Japan was already in the toilet since before the "remaster" stuff started in the last few years. They barely put out any legit games last gen. They had a major game get stuck in development hell for many years (Final Fantasy vs XIII). What did they even do on consoles from 2006-2012? Basically 1 Star Ocean game, Neir, and a highly disappointing Final Fantasy trilogy that nobody wanted. Compare that to their PS1 and PS2 output...
I think their move to mobile games was more damaging to their "high end" output than anything else. Some argue that's where their great games have moved, I don't agree with that, but at least they put out some variety on handheld.
Basically they lacked vision for the entire last generation of consoles, it was all about chasing the quick bucks with them (1st it was mobile and handheld games... and now it's remasters). For this gen I guess we'll have to see how Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy XV turn out, and also see if they even attempt to develop new IP's.
