People have always had the wrong expectations for the franchise.

Final Fantasy is for Square-Enix what Mario is for Nintendo.

It's not because I've played (so-so) games like Mario Party 8, Super Paper Mario or Mario Strikers that I'm going to doom the franchise to die.

Final Fantasy is just a name. Just a tag to help sell the game.

Every new Final Fantasy is a new game, a new experience. They aren't related one another.

I like the way you're thinking here. However, due to posting twice in a row before, I shall wait before I post this comment. So here's a video of FF13-2 in case you haven't seen it:

So yeah. Looks pretty awesome. But your point about Final Fantasy to Mario is one I never really thought of before. However, there hasn't been a "mainline" Mario game which has disappointed me yet, but FF11, 13 and 9 did just that. I haven't played FF14 enough yet to make my opinion about it
