Well, some people just don't like linearity, simple as that. And forcing opinions on people doesn't sound right imo.

It also gets pretty annoying on how I have to hear that Linearity = Bad game from so many people.

Some people have tastes in gaming that don't match your own, and you think thats wrong? you can't force anyone to like anything, good luck with that though.

I don't mind people having different tastes. But just because a game is linear does NOT make it bad. I'm not a big fan of WRPGs and open-world exploration. But i'm not in every thread saying.

OPEN-WORLD = SUCK.

True linearity alone doesn't make an RPG bad, it really depends on what you've got on the whole plate. those people nagging just on linearity alone are not looking at the whole picture to get any sort of real clairty. but its still there opinions even if it comes of wrong to some.

An' you should be happy your not one of those bringing up such non-sense, it does get irritating when people bash on a game your looking forward to and/or already have, but eh' be it real life friends or online interwebz people as long as you like it why bother with the details and exploits of others, jus' enjoy the game.

... also ...

If you would, don't throw me in the lot' o' them, my beef with FFXIII doesn't lay in jus' the linearity of it all, its quite a few things that makes FFXIII a broken game to me though i won't mention them to avoid derailment of your thread. needless to say, im the good kind of critic, not the barbaric gamers who bash popular games whenever they get a chance.

He likes WKC, enough said. A true innoventive game. 

@op

Your opening paragraphs are very linear, fix that shit or do I have to SE to fix it for you.

Real funny wise guy.

WKC isn't a legendary long running franchise like Final Fantasy, i expect more from an existing series and less from a new one which is common logic.

The first Final Fantasy was actually good though. SE is smart, they know that genre is dying of a linear death, boring people since the 80's, in trying to make it more marketable for people like me who don't care about exploring towns or talking to people all day, and just want to play those long ass games. But, no instead of enjoying this amazingly presented game, excellent gameplay and a free movie, you guys start bashing it, when no other game is even better.

I don't think people are more or less angry about the linearity of the game, as Final Fantasy X was and that game is amazing, but rather there's no break point towns in the games. The only towns are straight lines and you can't even talk to people. Final Fantasy X had towns that you could run around and gather information about the state of the world. Or maybe even do mini side quests if there was any. Hell you could backtrack in Final Fantasy X even without the airship. In Final Fantasy XIII you can't backtrack to anywhere on Cocoon apparently (Gotta ask my boi Perpride on that) and the "exploration" is in a very small section of the game in Pulse. And even then I question what kind of "exploration" they speak of. Plus they spent all this time on the game with over 300 people, and what we're left with is half a Final Fantasy game. I think that's the real complaints; it's half a Final Fantasy game. Doesn't help Kitase keeps on going on and on about how doing HD towns is too hard, yet I seem to recall this not being a problem when they were making these said "towns" on super computers back on the PSX days, hell they were more detailed back then too.

A free movie... lol... didn't realize you were psrock, i kinda ignored the girls ass in your avatar... which... is kinda strange for a dude...

Anyways to each his own, i'll leave it at that with you since your debating skills are over 9000, i know when im outmatched.
