Thank you for the really thoughtful and detailed response. I agree with most everything you mentioned minus FF5 and FFT. I don't like systems that make all the characters the same essentially. That was something I didn't really like about FF7 and FF8--characters just didn't feel unique. For FFT, I enjoyed the battle system (I love tactics-style games too), but I hated the story. It utterly failed to interest me or give me an attachment to any character. By comparison, I can play a Disgaea game with a very simple story but terrific writing and get attached to the characters within an hour. |
I don't like systems that make characters the same either.... unless there is vast amount of variety and a decent amount of balance.
Which is the problem i had with 7,8 and even the last part of 6 as the special abilites began to efll away and their predertimed stats were washed away by esper gains.
I agree about Final Fantasy Tactics not really being engaging. I still thought the story was ok though. I just didn't conect with anyone in it. Unlike the Tactics games.
Really the main character was kinda unlikeable...
