Dissappointed, Final Fantasy is not about graphical prowess, I and many long standing fans have been saying this for a long time. No matter how beautiful it may look, if the story and plot sucks, the whole game sucks. Sakaguchi was writing compelling and dramatic stories in his FF games. Now its about "teh CGIs"

But they have been going for graphical prowress since VII. >_>

Then they simply stopped caring about the core values of FF.

That's not true at all.

Nearly every publisher and developer I can think of sought to push the graphical boundaries of their series with new iterations. Look at Gran Turismo, Uncharted, and Gears of War. Those series tried to push graphical prowess with each new entry.

You miss mah point. I was talking about the cutscene part. The CGI in FF13 looks phenomenal, I wonder if they put 80% of dev time in making those CGI movies.

Seriously? I don't even know how people can say that considering that people who do cinematics are not involved at any point in general programming or story. There's no crossover there. I suppose you could argue dollars being spent disproportionately, but it's just time and salary.
