Square Enix considering episodic releases?

Could you imagine?Final Fantasy XV Episode 2: The Whiningor something like that? They’re really thinking along those lines. Square Enix CEO Phil rogers told Develop that it could come in the next three years:“Will we see our games split into episodes? It’s not something that we are particularly planning, but I’ve no doubt that we will be over the next three years.” That doesn’t sound particularly solid for the case of episodic release schedules, but look at what Rogers says about DLC:“Digital is now a massive part of our focus....
