| GiggityNinja said: Ever played Final Fantasy XII? It's a great game. Quite fun. I put more than 80 hours into it. But it doesn't FUCKING deserve the "Final Fantasy" name. Quite frankly, it pissed me off how much it butchered the series. Final Fantasy X worked hard to give the next systems good Final Fantasies to work off of, then XII came in and blew it all apart. Fuck Final Fantasy XII. Of course, if it was called "War in Ivalice" or something without the "Final Fantasy" name slapped on it, it would be awesome due to people having lower expectations on it. |
Really? I think FFXII not only deserved the name, it broke out of the tired conventions of the FF name. FFX was a lightweight AFAIC. Not one drop of red-blooded adventure spirit to it. And shamefully linear and claustrophobic even compared to older FF's, and still using archaic game design elements like random battles. I really think the game was aimed at teenage girls exclusively.
