In regards of milking, I don't consider XIII milked. Is the character Lightning overused? Yes, but the XIII saga isn't.  There's one game every two years, and they're all different from each other especially the last one.

If you want a JRPG series that's milked, look at the Tales of series. ..and Persona 4. There's a tales game every 9 months with similar battle systems, and Tales of Xillia 2 is coming out in which the original is barely a few months old.

 

There's an enhanced port, two fighting games (don't mind them but there's really no reason to tie them to P4), the anime, but the Vita dancing game is the breaking point.

I disagree utterly, the most wooden Final Fantasy main character I've had the honor of playing as yet...and I've played most of the main titles.

Though I suppose you can only vote lightning cause Square Enix has been pretty adamant on pushing that one character whole last gen, lol.

Spin-offs don't count!

I'm pretty sure those are the things that count the most with talking about milking....

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

I must say that while P4A is a beautiful, solid, fun fighting game, Atlus placing it as "canon" for both P3 and P4 pissed me off to high fucking heaven. Mainly because neither story needed any kind of sequel (in fact, this being canon just pisses all over both of them), and that it's extremely shallow by Persona standards, or even standards for most JRPG's.
