I'd actually rather see the series go back to more a traditional style seen during previous console generations (snes, ps1) rather then change even more then it has over the past few years. I do agree that some of the japanese influence (specifically with the character design) has gotten out of hand though.

Everytime FF (after FF7) went back to "tradition" (that is a medieval setting) it underperformed

FF9, FF12 both underperformed in comparison to FF7, FF8 & FF10

Don't expect a FF that goes back to medieval setting for a long time, unless the FF tactics team is making FF15 like they made FF12

EDIT: oh & please keep the FF Tactics team away from a main final fantasy S-E.....let them make FF tactics HD or something

Would you say they underperformed or people just had grown tired of the series? I mean, FF9 was an excellent game but it was not a first day buy for me. I was just kinda exhausted of the series. FF 12 was a tad off because of the MMO battle system style ad that could've turned off a bunch of players away. I think with each generation of FF you see an influx of new fans and towards the end of the console generation people have moed on hence why the lower sales.
