Second, I've heard rumors that Final Fantasy IV: The After Years was a ROM project that SE had also given the C&D to. Is there any truth to that?

FFIV: The After Years is a real game, it's the official sequel to FFIV. Unless you mean there was some sort of attempt to turn it into a playable rom?

And third, even if that rumor is not true, does SE have a copy of CE?

SE probably doesn't have CE and I doubt they'd even bother with it, especially considering it's a rom patch.


Also, thanks to Matt of Kagero forums for giving us a huge helping hand and evidence in determining Alienat0r's identity.

Thanks, that makes me feel better at least.

Later guys.

From the Wikipedia page on it:
"Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, released in Japan as Final Fantasy IV the After: Tsuki no Kikan (ファイナルファンタジーIV ジ・アフター -月の帰還-, Fainaru Fantajī Fō Ji Afutā -Tsuki no Kikan-?, lit. "Final Fantasy IV the After: Return of the Moon") is a Japanese role-playing game developed by Matrix Software and published by Square Enix, and is the sequel to Final Fantasy IV. The first two chapters of the game were released in Japan in February 2008 for NTT DoCoMo FOMA 903i series phones, with a release for au WIN BREW compatible phones in May 2008 and Yahoo! Keitai compatible phones in November 2008.[3] The mobile phone release was distributed in monthly installments, the first of which was free to download, while the following chapters available via subscription.[4] An English-language release was announced as a WiiWare title on March 25, 2009.[5]. It will be released in North America on June 1, 2009.[6]"

It doesn't take but a moment to try to find out these things on your own...

So no, SE doesn't have a history of turning fan projects into anything but useless data in your recycle bin.

Oh well. Le sigh. Let's wait for the next Square Enix shovelware game :(

Let's just hope Bob's Game is not vaporware now or get C&D'ed by Nintendo.

So it was Dark Serge....I know no one will trust me, but he was the first person I found suspisious, but I thought I was being paranoid so I let my suspsion move on.

I can't believe I was tricked so easily....still I won't lose my new upbeat attituide.

Also even though I find them rude for doing so , I won't hate the people at SE since I know whatever they did it wasn't a personal thing. As for DarkSerge I will forever hold him in contempt for tricking me into trusting him. In good news for the other I will no longer complain abotu them not being polite because SE was rude. Please feel free to rant obsessivly about how evil you think they are even if I disagree.

Wow... I wonder what could of been said in that conversation that would make whoever you were talking to promise a "Response" to this whole fiasco. Eh, eye for an eye I say, they refuse to keep their end of the bargain, post the conversation or whatever. If they whine about it and try anything, you have proof of them breaking said agreement if you have the Emails still.

(and yes yes I know, my first post is on this subject, yall probably suspicious of new people, don't burn me, I don't burn well! I've just been lurking unregistered ever since I read on Joystiq about the C&D letter, and have posted about it here and there on a couple of sites.)

Just noting that a second videos has been added to the YouTube account and linked from the first post of this thread. This is a teaser of sorts, but the next videos released (throughout the month of June) will be FW's full playthrough, from the start of the game up to the ending(s) in a linear fashion and with minimal video editing.

Oh so its not just me. I feel better now! ^.^

Well I'm glad at least that the suspense is over and I can see some footage.

...why do i still feel so sad?

I know....its because its bittersweet, but you'll smile someday and laugh.

Untill then Let's sing something bittersweet or even sad. It will help let out that sad feeling. *Starts singing "You Are My Sunshine"*

It works fine with me. I asked because I thought you were worrying that you will not be able to watch the videos as soon as they were uploaded.
