Is Final Fantasy too ambitious for its own good ?

Ok.

I do have to say though, your perception of what the"forced main cast" did for the world/story of FF12 is ironic. The choice to present the main cast as just simple, non special, non directly related to main villian, actually strengthens the world and story lore. FF12 focused on world events themselves as the main character not singular direct events(cloud,sephiroth,shinra). FF12 has the richest lore of Any FF minus the MMO's wether you like it or not.

Vaan wasn't supposed to be a thing until a later stage into development, he was forced into the story, so is the girl which I forgot her name. The important characters were not the main focus and the other almost had no personality to appreciate or remember. The lore was great, I agree.

Edited the title for a better understanding what I'm trying to say.

Im aware of development switchup. Everybody is. I dont think you understand though., the choice NOT focus on main cast mzde the story and world lore STRONGER not weaker as you stated originally. FF12 was all about world events/mythology/struggle.
