Translation of OP : I don't like the latest FF, therefore noone else should like them either and SE should make something else to catter to my own personal tastes...

Sorry, some of us actually enjoyed the latest FF....

 

See, it's not so much that, though I would be happy if everyone did everything to accommodate my taste (though that would be awesome), it's mainly that SE is full of themselves and I want them to be taken down a peg.  They know people will buy FFXIII no matter what they put in the box and they are fine with that.

I just want the game to bomb to scare them into actually trying again, make people buy things other than FF games so SE isn't cornering the JRPG market anymore, and hopefully have SE start making things that are actually special again.

Look at something like FFXII.  I accept that people like it even though I hate it but that divide is pretty evident that something is the matter.  If you look at something like FFVI, almost everyone loves that game.  There are of course people that don't like it, but you don't have this giant split like you have with something like FFXII.

Just think, if FFXIII bombed and SE had to try again and they made something on the caliber of FFVI.  How much would you love a game that had as good as a story of FFIV, as good as characters as FFVI, and the looks of FFXIII?  Until they are forced to try again, they are going to continue to force generic characters and stories on us and concentrate on spinoffs because they know people will buy it.
