@pastro:
You haven't explain in what way FFVII is a step forward in terms of storytelling above FFVI, or FFIV, or even FF2. Yes, it had FMVs, but there were JRPGs that had FMVs long before FFVII did, and FMVs in the first place are just cutscenes, which we've had since the nES. There is no innovation there.
@weaveworld:
What would you have me say, exactly? Games with cutscenes do not owe that to FF7, they had them for about a decade and a half before that Games with FMVs don't owe that to FF7 either, as JRPGs before that had them too! "No the do not" is not only perfectly accurate, it is concise.
Yes, you wouldd be wrong.
Are you implying that because the average JRPG fan doesn't talk about Pokemon much, that Pokemon had no impact? I am not being sarcastic, I am making sure that I do not understand.
