Seems like Square Enix is on the block to be sold

Thats what I’m saying, square enix puts out a lot of bad selling games and products. People see final fantasy and dragon quest but they don’t see their western division constantly putting out bombs, or them producing huge movies for no reason.

square enix financial management and decision making has been historically bad.

lol the problem is that they're getting more risk-averse because they're stretched too thin.

Tencent, Amazon, MS, Random Russian Billionaire, etc ets them drop a few brinks trucks on something like Just Cause 5 with confidence - instead of worrying about the long-term gain/loss which in turn leads to decisions that take away if anything.

shyt, imagine if SE had stopped bullshytting with Hitman for years. If they went all in like they should've, they'd have next gen locked up right now.... their high notes would be much higher if they'd simply have the confidence that comes with bigger pockets.

I could see Sony acquiring Square-enix as a whole. They been investing a lot in manga/anime which Square has a hand in, For example ...Full-Metal Alchemist.

It’s gonna come down to Tencent, Microsoft or Sony.

And honestly, I hope they don’t get bought out.

Imagine not being able to play part 2 of FF 7 remake because it’s now exclusive to Microsoft

The reality at the moment is that part 2 is also timed exclusive to PlayStation according to Jeff Grubb so its easy to imagine i guess

Sony stans wishing they buy SE? Can they afford it? I guess it's no Zenimax, but do they have the capital?

Though Sega or Capcom would be way better, Phil could grab that with no problems

This is crazy.

SE being sold to Microsoft should literally be treasonous in a Japanese court of law.
