For now, yeah, FFVI is the best. Once people have poured too much love into it like VII, though, they'll migrate to another FF to worship and wring the life out of that one.

 

People have been hailing FFVI as the best in the series since it came out over a decade ago. FFVII didn't change that, not with certain crowds.

How would fan reactions make a game better or worse, exactly? Does a rabid fandom somehow lower the real quality of a game? I submit not.

Yeah, it's called an opinion, and they can, you know, change?

 

An opinion about what? Value apart from perception is a constant assuming that we refer to the same point of reference (i.e. any single gamer as compared to any single other). People liking something, even to the point of being obnoxious, would not subtract from the quality of that piece of media.

 

No shit, Sherlock. I was talking about how games were the best in a person's eyes. No need to argue over the obvious. Read next time, please, or at least get off your high horse and try to understand what a person is saying instead of assuming they're an idiot who's talking about something else.

Hey, no offense meant, I was just seeking clarification. Obviously you were talking about games, but what about a game being popular would make a game worse? Your judgment that FFVI would have the life wrung from it (and that FFVII already has had this happen) implies that you are, in fact, of the opinion that popularity exists in opposition to quality. I'm asking why you hold that opinion.

 

Your assumptions are wrong about me and you're getting the wrong message from what I'm saying. I'm of the opinion that popularity exists in opposition to how people view the game as a whole in their opinion of the game's quality, not the actual quality itself.
