Why I think FF15 Will Be The Best FF Yet

1. Graphics - Polygon count has nothing to do with quality.
1. (a) Art Design - Already one of the most boring and uninspired looking Final Fantasy games.

2. Story - Wants to bring back Retro level of story quality? He will try to match old games, he can't surpass them. Kingdom Hearts and TWEWY are nothing compared to the deep and interesting plots in FF IV-IX, and he only helped make character models for those games.

3. Gameplay - Personally I think it looks stupid. FF never had ridiculous jumping, and matrix style moves. FFVII: Advent Children was bad enough, are you honestly praising a game for being over the top ridiculous? Retro FF, good FF, wasn't over the top ridiculous.

4. Music - Retro is better

5. Sequels - AWWW this just guarentees that it's going to be bad. So far X and XIII are the only Final Fantasy's with sequels and they are regarded as among the worst in the main series.

Seriously, FF will never be as good as it used to be. Ever since Hironobu Sakaguchi left the company, Final Fantasy has lost all hope. Heck Lost Odyssey was much better then any FF game released in the last 10 years.

I don't think their troubles are because Hironobu left, Final Fantasy 12 was really good and it was released this decade! Also did you ever played ASH for the DS? That is a Hironobu Sakaguchi game and it's really really bad xD. I haven't played Losy Odyssey but it doesn't look that good to be honest :/. I think he lost his touch too since he left Square

FFXII was alright, not particularly good, it's not like the old Retro FF's which literally dethroned Nintendo when they moved to Sony. Also look to the left of your screen and see my "Currently Playing." I'm actually enjoying ASH very much, it feels a lot like Dragon Quest.

LOL, thing is a lot of people have different tastes. FFXV looks a lot more like a Modern JRPG, then a Classic JRPG. I'm a fan of Classic JRPG's, you know the FF's which define Final Fantasy. So no modern Final Fantasy will be good as what it used to be because they aren't making a game for the same audience.

As for Lost Odyssey, IMO it's the best console JRPG released in a long long time. It feels like an HD version of a SNES era JRPG, no other 6th or 7th gen game feels like this, and this is why it's so awesome. I think JRPG's were best in the 90's, and Lost Odyssey feels like a 90's JRPG. Don't get me wrong, Tales of ___, Valkyria Chronicles, and XenoBlade are all also excellent, but they have modern combat mechanics, they are all Action JRPG's. This is why Lost Odyssey is a real gem.
