Is Final Fantasy 14 GamePass a SCAM? Final Fantasy 7 Remake Never Coming to Xbox | My Thoughts

Why is that a scam?

FFVII remake will come to xbox, sony just have it locked up for now, but not forever. They might be extending the exclusivity for each new party that’s been extended.

xbox fans be like not as cool as Playstaion fans anyway :3

Xbox is on the verge of exiting Japanese market

Its not a scam. It just highlights the weird/backwards nature of the updated free trial.

Nintendo and sega should get together and sony and xbox should get together

i see it as a scam if the ff14 have its own launcher for pc

L take

I'm enjoying FFXIV on my Xbox almost got to heavenward. I don't mind the FFVII remake not coming to Xbox but I still would like the FF pixel remaster to come to Xbox.

Square Enix gave Sony console exclusivity for free.

I do not think WoW subscription model is going away if anything they might add WoW as a premium channel.

You really think they would kill the rev generated by wow subs, no chance in hell they do that.

will we be able to play our ffxiv PC character on xbox?

Xbox doesn't need ff7 trilogy you can whine but all games should be on all platforms but there wasn't the Xbox in 1997 and idk i just don't like Phil as the xbox dev bc he sits and complains why isn't this game on xbox idk sony and steam has a better handle on JRPGS and Sony is winning in the concle wars.. idk I just find it funny how Xbpx famboys will cry over everything plus a Xbox is basically like a dumb down pc... I'm sorry but the Xbox brand makes far more questionable decisions than sony

So I'm in the free trial on Xbox, been waiting for this game since it came out. Also I'm on game pass. So if I play through game pass I get boned out of content? But if I purchase the full edition, while still on game pass, I'm worried it's gonna mess up my character and what I have access to.

Coming out the day before Dragon's Dogma 2 !!

If you know anything about xbox. It will be a reoccurring game pass perk just like all there other stuff..y’all are seriously trying to over complicate this shit when it isn’t that complicated.. not to mention the Mogg store clearly says that their payment things are changing in late March I wonder what that is referring to? Some common sense goes a long way.

They need to do it like swtor if ur subbed you get full access to everything including expansions and u can choose f2p I’ve never done f2p but imo this is the best way to game if it has subs or f2p

Is he talking about the Washington post article and the articles citing the article. I was always told that the Washington post wasn't credible. So I take what that article says with a grain of salt. They never said it would never go to Xbox, but it would be after the trilogy is completed. Kingdom hearts came to Xbox. With Squares new boss you will never know. Plus, that Washington Post article already had to be edited.

Level 20 gladiator right now, haven’t spent a dime, having a blast replaying ARR since I only played it once. Literally have months of content.

I will never support the idea of a one console world. Having all the games be on everything leans in that direction, and I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to see that would be bad. No competition, means no innovation. We already see that with activision, EA, Blizzard, Ubisoft and most of Sqaure Enix. Rockstar games so far is the only 3rd party publisher that doesn’t make ass games. GTA series and red dead series are an exception, not the rule.

It Is a scam. Anyone can play XIV on PS without plus. Free on PC also. Pretty amazing they are putting is behind gamepass

I played the trial and im mid in Stormblood. The GP perk isn't a scam. The trial cuts you off at level 70 meaning you can play but you no longer gain xp, your gil is capped at 300k and you cannot join/create a guild, no pvp, no market board despite it also being a generous free trial. The starter edition unlocks all of that plus 30 days without the subscription so you literally only need to have Game Pass. If you plan on going past 70 its an excellent offer.

The only scam is having to pay double sub (gamepass and ffxiv sub). You only need to pay for the game sub if you play on Playstation or PC non gamepass version.

Maybe xbox should just not put any games on PlayStation. They have so many studios

Imagine you wait to play Shadowbringers and Endwalker on free trial. You have to wait at least 8 years for both become free. Also, when those become free we will at 9 or 10 expansion. So what the point to wait. 😅🤔

Hey brilliant content. Have a question as a long time player of ffxiv since the original beta on PC and still play on my laptop which is chugging along lol. When the Xbox full version is released and I transfer or use my main ffxiv account on it, what are my options for purchasing the full game. Like subs plus gamespass, and I definitely dint want to restart again lol.

The FF VII stuff wouldn't piss me off if we just heard all of this 4 years ago. The way they keep us in the dark and keep playing with our hearts with FF XVI and VII remake is what's annoying. With that said, I mostly just want the pixel remaster collection and Tactic Ogres Reborn on xbox more than the newer games. Yeah I can play them on the switch right now, but I want to achievement hunt some of my alltime favorite games. FF VI was the first final fantasy game I ever saw when I was at some rich kid's house with an elevator when I was visiting my grandparents in the early 90s and that beginning always stuck with me.

FF7 never coming to xbox because, Sony lost a billion dollars in stock value when Microsoft bought Activision Blizzard. People moved their money thinking it weakened Sony in the long term. To lose SE as an exclusive would go further to harm PlayStation.

You can play the free trial with no gamepass at the moment

As someone playing xbox free trial i want to pay a sub to get retainers and pvp. Bring on the release.

Im only kinda sad cant play around with buds that are also free trial

That's my son's birthday lol!

FFXIV is a better game to play anyway who cares about the remake?

Don’t care about ff 14 thats not the final fantasy we want square enix giving us their scraps

It sucks xbox players wont be able to experience the ff7 trilogy but i mean its not surprising if sony is hellbent of making it exclusive they may aswell buy square at this point

Yourself and many othere have fought for ff14 to come to xbox it sucks that xbox gamers will have to pay for gamepass and the 14 sub to play do you think this was a decision/deal made by xbox so 14 could come to xbox or was it square

I am currently saving up to pre-order Dawntrail, after that is settled I plan to get Rebirth and FFXVI since I recently got a PS5 recently.

I see all this "scam" talk, but I disagree. Game Pass is easy enough to get with no money, I would also argue that the majority of Xbox users already have Game Pass. I think a lot of this boils down to the fan bases, which is one of the dumbest things I've witnessed, who cares what console someone has. I used to have only a PlayStation, then I got an Xbox to play with real life friends, oh the horror. People assume that others are either signing up to GP for this game alone, which if any, I doubt it is a lot, or that they don't already have GP. to begin with. Why is the discussion so high on this game? I've played ESO and paid for GP and ESO plus since 2014, I think FO 76 also has a sub, but there isn't the same discussions about those, I wonder why? Honestly I will sub when the full game drops because I enjoy the game, a $15 fee to get a certain amount of enjoyment for how many hours per month is pretty low compared to say, going to the movies or an amusement park for a couple of hours.

this game should be free to play on the xbox game pass cause im not going to pay another fee for the sub for playing the game. I'm mean look how ESO has it.... you download the game play the free base game and if you want to play more content then you buy the expansions for the game. i felt this game should have taken this role cause it will help them out as well other systems. And yes i see ahat everyone is going to say that well they didnt do for PC and Playstation, well that what happens when you get the gaem 1st to your system you play on. I mean look how long it took xbox to get this game. If the other system wanted like that then the fans need to speak out and say your game needs to be free to play like ESO.

They just need to bring FFXI back to Xbox and console

Why not just tell us 5 years ago we’ll never get FF7? Why do they love stringing us Xbox fans along, like one day we might see these games. I thought getting Crisis Core Remake was a sign Rebirth might be coming. Why does Sony care so much?

I am actually proud of Sony on this one. Keep that weeb garbage off the Xbox.

Kinda stinks. But, I’ve saved like $1,500 with GamePass. I’ll pay an extra $15 for a few months for an awesome game.

No xbox fan should support any square enix games on xbox, they dont care about you dont care about them

So this dude crys and throws a manic temper tantrum for this game breaking PlayStation console exclusivity and now he cant stop complaining about it calling it a scam.

Yeah this dude is the worst type of console warrior, you should be so ashamed of yourself and should refocus your interestests if crying for phil spencer at a square enix presentation is a life goal for you just to spit in its face.

Shame on you man, and i hope all my xbox friends give 14 a fair chance because its a special experience shame on you console red haired crying guy.

Here simpler question who owns xbox dosnt have core or ultimate gamepass frankley

About ff xiv... I used a 30 day trial way back on the ps3. So does that mean my account is locked into that pay only model? Cant use the free model?

I still think eso is just a better game hands down

1. Yoo you're looking good haven't been by in streams in forever <3
2. I got xbox buddies who can't wait to play -
3. I can see WHY this could feel like a scam, and it's a valid fear/opinion - and its' a discussion the community should be questioning about consistently <3
