Screw everyone pushing for more Kitase/Nomura sci-fi trash. We literally *just* got that, and we have 2nd helping on the way (and possibly a 3rd given those FFXIII-2 rumors). You've had your fill this gen, step aside.
I want Sakaguchi. I want Matsuno. I want Kawazu. I want Tokita. I want someone to bring the fantasy back to Final Fantasy. Sans zippers.

I'm 100% behind you. i'm so sick of the camp dialogue, the hormonal characters and the over dramatised plot points.
i want a mature script, realistic characters, excellent writing, dark and serious story that will create the illusion of a enormous world, i believe there is only one man and one production team capable of that.

So basically you want another FFXII. I'm right behind you brother!
Anyways, I agree with the guy with the Vanille avatar. I like change and innovation; it keeps the series from getting stale. And if it weren't for change, we wouldn't have seen the magnificent FFXII. Hopefully, they can strike gold once again. I also liked FFXIII, especially the battle system, and console-wise, it's one of my favorite JRPGs this gen. It's funny how I liked this one more than WKC & ROF (games that have towns, etc.). I wouldn't mind a homage to the old FFs later down the road.
Some things I would like to see in the next FF: mini-games like Triple Triad or the one from FFX-2 (as long as it isn't terrible like blitzball). Also, harder difficulty.
What I don't want is random encounters. They are annoying and happen when I don't want them.
Also, the Wada hate is disgusting and unjustified. He's just a businessman; he's not a developer and basically has no word on the combat & story. Seriously guys, just leave Wada alone.

FFX-2, sphere break you mean? That had gazillions of minigames :P
And I agree about the Wada Part. He's not perfect. But, gets flamed way to much imo.

Yeah, i agree Wada has nothing to do with the games, he just manages SE. sphere break was very cool, something like that would be good, but triple triad or tetra master would be equally great.
Mirson, i'm not saying i want another FF12 exactly, FF12 was a good game to be sure, but peices felt broken. partly because of the departure of Matusno i think.
but also a key problem with FF12 and FF13 is the battle system. i mean FF12 is not accessible to the average player, you need to micromanage your gamits and work very hard to get through the environments. i think that the developers shouldnt have made the move set too large, and instead of gamits, employ a similar system to chrono trigger.
- where we have real time battles, but each character has a speciific skill, so say we use Fran, and when in the dungeons we press L1 to access her magic menu, and there you can select whatever black magic you want, keeping your faviourites close to the top. i think short-cut keys like this would make the gameplay a lot more accessible in real time battles and make it a lot more fun for new players, it would feel a bit more action imo.
the problem is the gamits almost played the game for you, i think the tone and the writing for FF12 was far superior to FF13, its just like i mentioned peices felt broken. but FF13 imo has an abysmal battle system, writing, tone, etc. so yes i would like something a lot closer to FF12 in certain respects.
