Square Enix killed Final Fantasy long time ago.
And the worst thing is that many people today doesn't even know what "Squaresoft" is.

Vesus was stated from it start, it would be more Like Dirge of Cerberus, Action adventure more then RPG.

It took them so damn long that they just changed Versus for XV.


They don't really lost there way, you just misunderstood What was FinalFantasy Versus. They were alot of reason for the hype, one of them Was the Action adventure style.

The only part that bugs me is that for the first time ever a mainline (non MMO) Final Fantasy won't be turn based. The game looks cool but it doesn't feel like a mainline FF. I would have preferred they kept it as a spin off (they could still have changed the name because let's face it Versus XIII sounds horrible).

I don't misunderstand it (I know exactly the history of it), like Trucks said they should have just called it something else.

yea Final Fantasy : Last Action Hero i prefer that and actual make a new  15 with actual rpg elements we acustom to thou it might take a number of yrs 

They said that about XIV, XIII saga, XII, XI, X-2, X, VIII, even VII for some.

The truth is, Final Fantasy never had a "way", and that what makes this franchise exciting and refreshing.

^Thanks Basil. The spinoffs you mentioned though were never numbered in the mainline series.

@bold. If they did that would be BS. The games were always turn-based and though futuristic were always set in a fantasy setting.

I can say neither about XV. Yes there are surreal objects but the game is set in modern times the trailer even said as much...

I don't think this makes me a real fan, just an gamer who enjoy multiple style and efforts.

I also associate FF with different things you do. The spells, summons, common monsters, etc are what tells me it's a FF game.

It does for me too (I also noticed the common ennemies), but the turn-based system was a very true part of the genre, as was the setting in a fantasy world with people and places that had little to no basis in reality that could transport you to another world with characters and places that could make you dream.

I had that for all FF games up until X so far, all of them. I have only played a bit of XII and it seemed to still be there, not sure yet what happens after that but from the little I've explored it doesn't look promising. FFXV I can tell you loses me altogether.

Also I can enjoy multiple styles and efforts, but there are some things that as a FF fan I consider have to be there when I'm playing a numbered Final Fantasy, otherwise I have no idea what I'm playing and can choose to play or not play it much like any other game that is not a numbered final fantasy. With a numbered FF I usually just play it knowing it'll be great. Here I dont' know.
