I’d give it a few years maybe, I wish Square Enix would do what Capcom did with Mega Man Dive and made it a one time purchase and you unlocked everything by playing the game and without the Gacha Scheme!

That game really put the idea of an Offline version after EoS out there. I wish it wasn't wishful thinking for that to happen to more of these games.

Honestly, I think more companies would do it if they didn't wait until they had so little money that they have to declare bankruptcy as soon as they announce EoS. If you put some cash into retrofitting these games into an offline experience, you can turn the whale system into a long tail. Doesn't look as good for each quarter, but would bring in a bit of money to smooth over unexpected shortfalls. Though, of course, that assumes that companies even care about staying in business, and not just making as much money as quickly as possible, and then ripping out the copper when they have to try again.

I also hope that there will be an offline version of this game.
I am aware that you can buy the OG Final Fantasy, as well as Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrate and Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII on Steam.
But the third game "Final Fantasy VII The First Soldier" would be worth it because it's new.

(It would also be great if Square Enix were able to revive Mobius Final Fantasy. I'm just saying.)

less than a year, just like their last game

Yes, I wish that it would be the case.

Considering DFFOO lasted 5 years and looks like a Sega Dreamcast game with poor animations. I'd say longer than that.

FF7EC is the first mobile game to get a Steam release. FF7EC obtained more downloads in a month than DFFOO in its first 3 years.

Applibot has a Nier game that is still going.

Lastly, canning this game before part 3 of FF7 trilogy with an estimated release date of 2027 is moronic at best.

Best guess is this game will last until 2030

Impossible to say. The tie in to FF15, New Empire, lasted a couple years, but was mostly just whales after the first couple months of slapping fans in the face and making it clear the game's pointless without paying into it. First Soldier didn't even last a year, that died off pretty quickly. This has tie ins to FF7 and takes inspiration from the remake, but then takes creative license with the original story as well and isn't ever going to be the FF15 mobile version of FF7 that a lot of people got mad back in September that this wasn't.

It's a Gatcha, it's there to be a cash void for squeenix. It'll last as long as the cash flow.

SE actually did that with Final Fantasy Dimensions 2. It sucks they haven't followed suit with their other defunct gachas

[Jasgo]

I'd say the track record wasn't looking good, however the Steam release is a big plus.

It is kind of what they did with Chocobo GP when it kind of imploded due to microtransaction bullshittery, so there is a chance that they don't just nuke it out of existence when the service goes down.

I thought that Mobius Final Fantasy was the first mobile game that was also released on Steam.

I think it has a chance to get an "Offline version", albeit small (given how SquEnix is), because of the First SOLDIER story.

[Eucalex]

Probably around 2 years then server shutdown, still sore from Final Fantasy Mobius awesome game that Square Enix shut down, So don't spend money on there mobile games.

It didn't stop them from shutting down the First SOLDIER though, lol.
