Well, that's sad to hear, FF has been great to me, will mostly likely love XV as well.

FF games have always been great. Even 13 with it's god awful pacing and story telling was a good game at it's core. I'm not buying FFXV new or full price but when I do get it (being a fan of the series) I'm sure I'll even enjoy it. That doesn't mean I want it to continue in that vein. I want SquEnix to remember what FF is in terms of gameplay because (as I played in the demo) it's certainly not running around collecting items (seriously, platforming in an FF game, hope that crap is toned down in the main game).
FF13 was bought on promise, premise and name. I think they once said, it'll be a cross between FFX-2 and FF12's combat (was neither). The first game not sitting well with many fans meant FF13-2 and 3, no matter how good, would not have been purchased. I'm pretty sure SquEnix look at FF13 sales and expected the sequels to do as well, not really accepting fan reaction.
