I used to love Jrpgs and FF, but as I got older I started getting tired of the ridiculous childish dialog, always being a 14 year old kid saving the world, and the general emo-ness of jrpgs, and particularly FF. I loved FF6 and FF7, but hated FF8, and then spent a few years out of FF and consoles.
I was interested in FF13, but with the articles and reviews I was disappointed with it, it seems dumbed down. Like i said in the previous page, I'll still get it, but when it drops to half price or something.
But I cannot see Square Enix doing a real, mature, thoughtful, dark FF. I'm pretty sure it's just gonna mean gothy dark emo, like I said. That doesn't mean I'm not interested in it, I'm just saying people are deluding themselves if they think it's gonna be that different from a "regular" FF. |
Well, it's true that FF fits into a specific mold of plots and writting that is a bit of cliche, but I would look into FF12 if I were you, the story and the overall plot breaks away from that mold in a way that alienated a lot of fans because of it.
It's more of a mature, geo-political and vicious behind-curtains backstabing plot, it almost felt very un-Final Fantasy like, but that's why I consider it the best story in all FF games.
I concur with Acevil, you shoud look into the SMT series if you're looking for those kind of plots, especially the Persona series and DDS series.
