What about FFIV Ds, that was good game. Sure it's a remake, but it's a good one.

FFXIII isn't a remake of a good game, it's a spinoff of a spinoff (FFXII) of a spinoff (FVIII) of a mediocre at best game (FFVII) with more spinoffs planned.

Would you mind explaining that, because I'm about ready to call bullshit

That was more me being bitter and sarcastic but sure--
- FFVII -- it's not as great as everyone says it is. The story was bland and the characters weren't good yet somehow Cloud became the model for every future hero of the series.
- FFVIII - Hey guys, I have a good idea, lets make an even quieter Cloud that's also kind of a dick!
- FFX - Well we made a Cloud that's kind of a dick so now lets make a Cloud that's kind of whiny
- FFXII - Well, I think we struck GOLD with making the last Cloud whiny, so lets multiply the whiny factor 10 fold this time, completely get rid of the quiet, in fact, he should never shut his fucking mouth, make him almost a woman, and make him dumb as a brick.
- FFXIII - Well the last Cloud worked for us, what can we do this time? I know! Make him actually a woman this time.

Are those actually what you think or is this as close as you can reasonably come to trolling without actually doing it? My God, man, no part of that is reasonable and I have trouble believing that you're actually typing it.
Cloud, Squall, Tidus, and Vaan are fundamentally different. I won't speak as to Lightning since I haven't seen her in-game yet, but if she's meant to appeal in the same way as Cloud in terms of marketing then that still means jack squat in terms of how she will actually be characterized.
I mean, how can you compare Cloud and Squall for more than the first ten minutes that you see each of them? Vaan and Tidus is even worse.

Meh, as I said, that whole piece spawned of me being sarcastic and joking. They started with the same basic Cloud character look/design and that's what matter since they're all made of carboard anyways.
Keanu Reeves has more character than all of those characters combined (and not joking there
)
