SQUARE: Hey Enix, you know what would be awesome?
ENIX: No, Square, I do not know.
SQUARE: Let's make a sequal to one of our Final Fantasy games! FFX-2 was so awesome! Let's do FFXIII-2.
ENIX: Um, Square... I am not sure we can put them in any skimpier outfits, or the game might not get released in Sweden due to child pornography claims... Besides, I thought people didn't like the game?
SQUARE: Pish posh, who can't like endless corridors, no plot for half the game, and not a single town to be in? And lets not do skimpy outfits this time. Let's to ARMOUR! YEAH!
ENIX: So, we fixing the bad stuff? Like the combat system?
SQUARE: Enix you fool, we need MORE of what made FFXIII so bad, how else can we justify having more cut scenes than a Kojima game?!
ENIX: You are right Square, this is a good idea. Let's work on this after we re-release FF1 and FFIV for the nth time. Saves us from butchering FFVII...
And that is how games development happens at Square Enix.
PS: I feel Square Enix is like an ex-wife, you once loved them, but now they just seem to exist to make your life miserable.
