I just wanted to adress that particular point, given that it's a common knowledge fact that Final Fantasy games are amongst the highest selling RPG games. Even PC RPG's are hard pressed to sell in numbers similar to the numbers that FF games achieve.

True that they cannot even be compared to the sales of Pokemon games, but they are the second highest selling RPG franchise, and they will continue to be so.

Also, I don't particulary agree with your assesment of Final Fantasy being lost as a series, but it's mainly because you threw that at first as being a fact, but you corrected yourself by stating it to be your opinion. I don't have a problem with people's opinions, is just that there is so many personal opinions in this site that are used as "hard facts", that I get a bit on the defensive when I see people do that.

I know Final Fantasy games are one of the three most strongest JRPG franchise. Currently I lost faith in Square Enix ability to make console games all together truth be told, for the last two-four years, I haven't played anything decent by them. 

Also while Lightning is growing on me, mainly because she actually smiled in the last trailer, still hate Sazh, I truly believe the lack of emoness that Cloud had is going to not make her as popular.

Edit: Also I totally agree, that people opinion are faced off as facts, so I understand. Like it is Darth opinion that he has crazy sales prediction for 10 million. Also Darth, don't said Jerry after me.

The problem here is that SquareEnix is a big company with very few teams that are actually on the level of say "kojima productions", "bungie" & so on

that team hasn't made a game in those 4 - 5 years your talking about

& Jerry has been sent after you, if I were you, I'd use an invisibility cloak

& I still believe FF13 can sell 10 million all said & done

I agree on your judgement of sazh, but the chocobo in his head has made him likeable for me
