What is polish refer to, anyway?

Can SO4 really get multiple 9's across the board?  It's possible but I am not holding my breath.

"How are the characters suppose to be "overly interesting"? Doesn't LO's characters drive the game's story?"

One of the big problems with Lost Odyssey is that it is kind of a throwback like Blue Dragon was in that part of its style is rather dated. It is not a true cinematic rpg but uses text to tell quite a bit of its story. In a truely cinematic rpg you would prefer to see all of it acted out at the highest production value possible for consoles at that time.

I agree with everything he said but his opinion on XII.

This thread has only been up a short while and already generated almost three pages of comments. Yet another example of the fact that FF is still very much an important series.

It's important until it starts selling under 3 Million a generation.

The last few Final Fantasys have sucked comparativly but it's still got a strong brand and people will keep buying it.

I hope you don't meanthe Thousand Year Dreams.

Don't know.
Don't think so.
Don't care.

It's important to me.

yes the series does still matter, but i think they need to get back too some of the basics like a good story and a very good battle system, also normal summons/gf/aeons/eideons and such, also not shiva transforming into a bike. they can still make good changes but they need too realize that sometimes less change and more of what ppl like is what made ff series so great in the 1st place. my favorite ff games are ff8 and ff10, also i thought ffx-2 was alot better than ff12, just my opinion though. i will get ff13 because i want too see if they can reclaim their past glory, so i will give the ff series at least one more shot before i write them off.
