Some people are wondering why FF games can be bad games.
RPG's are not just about graphics. FF games have always had amazing graphics.
But the 4 areas that are vital to an RPG being great( this mainly applies to JRPG's) are.
1. How the story is executed.
2. The Level and Battle system
3. Character affiliation.
4. Tediousness(Battle wise)
On the first note it's hard to compare older RPG's to newer ones. Because Tech increases, Graphics affect some of how the story is told. But good dialogue is essential.
Also If you have to grind at all in any RPG you dont want it to feel like you are. If your leveling up with boredom (say music on in the background watching a tv show), then the game is poorly concieved.
On that note recently Square Enix have lost there way. Not to say they are the worst but certainly not the best.( After FF 7 anyway, and 9 was good.)
