And I never said it was.  I never stated that the story in Dissidia ruins the overall game, since as you said, it's a fighting game at its core.  My post is doing as the op said, if you were to remove one thing from this companies franchise to make it a bad game, and I stated the battles, giving reference to the previous games in the series, all of which had bad storylines, showing that Square Enix can't write a good script. 

I've clarified with you already, doing so now a second time, after you've spun my words on it that I am not saying what you're insinuating I'm saying.  I haven't said Dissidia is a bad game because of its story.  I haven't even said it's a bad game.  I haven't talked about the quality of anything really other than the Final Fantasy series being a bad franchise, and while I didn't say so, the reasoning behind my opinion is mainly Final Fantasy 13 and 13-2.

You've took my words out of context and created your own self contained argument.  If you'd like to win an argument that I'm not even a part of, then hey, you won.  You don't even have to post last. I will completely agree with everything you write because I am only stating the quality of Square Enix's script writing is crap, and I believe if there was no battle system, the series would be even worse off.

*edit*

Which since you like Dissidia, do you play often?  Would play through adhoc party if you're interested.

Oh god yes. The removal of unit stacking was the only improvement over the other games, practically everything esle took a plunge, all in the name of gaining "broader appeal" by impementing simpler mechanics. Eww.
