Did you even play Blue Dragon? I'm just wondering, you seem to bash Mistwaker, but as far as I can tell, you never did any research into Mistwaker and Sakaguchi post-Final Fantas. S-E screwed him over. So what if he makes games that are similar to Final Fantasy? He made the entire series from the ground up, he has a right to do his games his way. If anything, FFXIII will be a Lost-Odyssey ripoff, not the other way around.
Also, FF8 didn't have any sort of active-attack system unless it was later in the game. SMRPG had one, and Eternal Sonata has an active defense system, but FF never did, to my knowledge.
I admit, i played the demo and nothing more of blue dragon. Bd's battle system is a step in the right direction but nowhere near innovative. Im highly critical of Mistwalker because they have so much potential and i dont think they are living up to it yet, with that said i have yet play LO or ash. AS for 13 being a rip-off of LO would u mind going into detail please? As far as i can tell they have nothing in common excpt that they are both made in japan. Yes ff8 had something similiar to the trigger thing in LO. Right before squall attacked if u pressed R1 then he would do more damge. You could do that from the first battle to the very last if one well pleased.
Look i think im coming across as a mistwalker hater and i can see why but i dont hate them, i want them to be the best and thats why im so highly critical. But to sit there and say ff rips off of lo is so ignorant its disgusting. LO shamelessly rips off what ff has done and thats ok with me.
As for lost tears of kain i wasnt trying to be a jerk to u or anything. I would rather be friends on here rather than enemies. Im assuming that you have a 360 and im just curious as to what ur gamertag is so i can add you as friend. Mines Dabaus513 same as my name on here. Anyone else for that matter can add me.
