Oh, good. I'm perfectly normal, then.

But why do I still like the old Final Fantasies?

Couldn' t have said it better myself Badgenome.

 

Well that's the thing too... weren't the SNES protaganists... older?

I mean it seemed that way anyway.

 

Yeah for the most part. In FFIV the whole cast were adults except for three party members and one of those three becomes and adult before the game ends. FFV and FFVI followed similiar trends with it's protagonists as well.

@Deatht0m

I have to send you a friend request after you post.

 

Well, there were no "kids" in FF7 except for yuffie. In FF12 there are young protagonists as penelo and vaan but they even seem young adults or closer to adults than to teens. Also, I cant see the "maturity" behind old FF that the newer ones dont have.

Maybe old gamers feel left out and its the kind of attitude old people have when they say "In my times...blabla", maybe the series has become better and changed and u percieve it as going to hell.

Cloud is like... 18-22 in FF7... as is basically the whole cast outside of Barrett.

Also outside of barrett.  No one in the game has any adult responsibilties or connections what so ever.

If you consider less complicated narritive and a focus on younger, less developed characters a change for the better... all the more power to you.  Your the people square is targeting.
