Clueless Gamer: Conan plays FFXV, "Why would someone play this?"

The classic JRPG focused on static combat and super linear structure is dead, at least when it comes to AAA RPG. SE is trying to catch up western RPGs which are stealing the show right now with dynamic combat, rich build character options, and less linear structure.

Still find this logic funny, FF13 which by many fans is considered one of the worse FF games still outsold all those 'western' RPGs. Why is SE playing catchup when it still has the biggest RPG franchise in the world? They should be playing to their strengths, not copying other games which aren't as popular and/or sold fewer.

I only bought FFXIII because I thought it would offer more variety content, and in the end I just played it once and sold my copy on ebay after that. Never played XIII-2 and so forth.
