No, squall is dead. Get it right pike, gawd.

I don't think it's "dead" I think it isn't the power house it used to be. Before it was a console staple. Now it's just a long running series. I think their biggest mistake was the long time for XV and the pushing of the XIII series when a large amount of fans didn't like it. Now some fans LOVED it but, in my experience, a lot of them disliked it. So by ostracizing those long time fans not once but twice with two XIII sequels just pushed those dedicated fans away. Now they will mostly be relying on newer fans to carry the next entries.
