I completely disagree.....the gameplay was brilliant....imo.

Graphics were nice as well.....If i have any minor complaints its the story which actually thanks to Ashe, Basch, Fran & balthier seemed mature at times unlike some of the other FF stories (referring to whiney TIdus here)...but yeah the story failed to grasp onto you as it didn't flow well.

JRPGs can have teenage characters and still have mature stories i.e. Persona 3

BTW, Tidus wasn't whiny, just very cheerful

It doesn't matter. As bad as Tidus was, Vaan was 1000x worse. For different reasons, but still worse.

 

Vaan was a very dull character who was in the game just for the sake of being in the game.  Bathier, on the other hand, was awesome

Besides he was the "leading man"

Well he was kind of whiny at the beginning, but that was on purpose and was apart of his character development. Heck, they made his demeanor a plot device with his flashbacks/memories of Jecht when Tidus would cry. However, Tidus throughout the story became more mature with his progression to adulthood and becoming a strong indepedent person. Even the tone of Tidus' voice changes to a deeper more mature sound in the latter parts of the story.

I agree about Fran and Balthier, but Ashe, and Basch weren't good characters at all. I was referring to the story anyway because you mentioned that. Also the gameplay was extremely broken. This might have been mentioned before, but if you use gambits it feels like your not playing, but if you don't lose it the game is too complicated. Also the battles were extremely boring, and felt like you did the same thing over again. Oh and I agree I hate how tidus whined so much, but I would rather have Tidus in my game than Vaan anytime of the day. The story was extremely boring as well. The characters barely interacted with eachother with the exception of Fran, and Balthier, and then the backstory was a total mess, and way to predictable. Also it lacked many things that I love about the FF series, and brought in horrible replacements. So in conclusion the only things I liked about the game were 1 No random Battles, 2 Fran and Balthier, and 3 the Huge Worlds/Maps. The rest of the game was bad imo. Not only for Final Fantasy standards but Rpgs as a whole. That is why I'm happy FFXIII is going back to the Roots with the ATB battle system, and an actually story that seems interesting. ANyway I don't want to discuss FFXII, and would much rather get back on topic.

 

I played without using them.....the gameplay is much more fun that way....except for cure (cura, curaga) don't use the gambits for anything!

Are you new here?? Every FF thread goes off topic.....lol

its either the FF7 was the best FF or not argument....or how FF12 was crap or not

 

No I have been here since January. We've talked about FF before also. I think we were talking about FFVI being the best or something. Anyway I also chose to turn off gambits.

I hate it when people take a core plot device and use it against the character. I hate it when people say "OMG TIDUS CRIES = FAIL!!!" when it's a central plto device. It happens with other gaems too. Like TWEWY people are always like "OMG EMO CHARACTERS!" when it's a CENTRAL PLOT DEVICE! So annoying.

 

yup, pretty much

although I've never played TWEWY, so I cannot comment on that....yet

I think SE has got no more room for developing more games, unles they have slaves working for them in secret.

Let's see how many games they are making ATM:

DS: Valkyre Profile DS, Chronno Trigger DS, KH:358/2 Days, DQVI, DQIX, FF Fabels: Chocobo's Tales 2, FF Fabels: Chocobo's Dungeon, Pingu, Snoopy, Sigma Harmonics (just finished).

iPod: Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes.

PSP: Dissidia FF, Agito FFXIII, Parasite Eve 3, KH: BBS.

Wii: Soul Eater, FFCC:CB (If it's still in production)

HD/PC: FFVersusXIII, FFXIII, Star Ocean 4, The Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery, Rapture. (Some of this games are multiplat, require multiple teams)

Mobile: Kingdom Hearts Coded.

That's 24 games, I think their hands are more than full right now.

Edit: I had forgotten about Pingu and Snoopy o.O
