Why I want Final Fantasy XIII to bomb

I don't agree that the FF series have been shit for 10 years. Even when they don't turn out as you want. It's always obvious that blood, sweat, tears and $$$ were dumped into every main series game.

I do agree with you, however, that the spin offs are quite ridiculous and people need to stop buying them so that S-E actually starts developing games again not rehashes but with Wada at the helm, I don't expect any changes anytime soon.

 

Oh I believe there's blood, sweat, and tears put into the game but no real love.  It's all about the money and all about pleasing the Cloud fanboys, not about actually making a decent game.

I actually think making Cloud a chick in FFXIII is a genius move from their point of view because now fanboys don't have to feel so bad about being in love with Cloud.

I don't think any of the games after FFvii have been similar at all. One of the reasons many hate ffviii for example is how everything about it is different. I won't say Squaresoft was trying to please the Cloud fans. I personally even feel that Squall>>>>>>Cloud. All in all, all FF main series games are still at the upper echelon of the JRPG genre. It's DQ where every game looks the same as the last that really needs to come under the microscope.
