If you were in charge of Square Enix
Say for whatever reason you found yourself in charge of Square Enix, what changes, if any, would you implement?
Note, this is mainly just for fun so how much thought you put behind your answers is up to you. I don't pretend to be an expert in business or anything, I just jump in with the mindset that I can't do any worse.
1.) I would see where the hell XV and KH3 are at in development and how soon we can expect them to be released. Seriously.
2.) I would do whatever I can to make sure that Type-0 English release becomes reality.
3.) Hire new people. Preferably people who know what the smurf they're doing.
4.) Voice acting. I don't know if anyone else agrees, but the voice acting in Final Fantasy games are horrible. I like X, but I can't sit here and pretend the voice acting was great, XIII suffered the same problem. I don't know if it's the voice actors, the directors, or the setback from being an English dub, but seeing that good voice acting can be done (even for games that came from Japan and was dubbed into English) there's no excuse in my mind for a lousy performance.
5.) If there's a high demand for X-3 after the X/X-2 HD release, I'll green light it, but you can bet your sweet ass I'm keeping close tabs on that. FFX is my favorite game, they ain't smurfing it up under my watch. If there's some way to execute it well despite the premise they want to go for, then do it. This is where 3.) and 4.) come in.
6.) See what I can't do about releasing more original titles to provide some much needed variety to Square's library.
7.) Remake Final Fantasy VII.
8.) See what the overall reaction to the VI IOS port is, and if it's bad see if it's not too late to try to rectify it by making the character sprites not stick out like a sore thumb, if not. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
9.) Re-release IX for the PS Vita.
10.) Try to repair that strained relationship between Square and the fans. You're not making everyone happy, but when your fanbase feels like their feedback doesn't matter that's not exactly a good thing. These are the people giving you money.
11.) Close the door on XIII forever. This seems like a moot point given that seems to be the whole point of Lightning Returns, but I feel the need to state the obvious for some reason.
12.) Forge a closer relationship with you guys 'cause you're awesome (cheap pop)
13.) Hook up with Japanese girls.
I'd probably focus more on new games than I would with remakes, sequels, etc. but I wouldn't stop doing them altogether if the demand was high enough and I thought there was a profit to be made (Uh oh, I'm turning into evil businessman!)
Your turn.
