you're a fucking bigoted idiot. FFXIII fucking blows. Its plot is shallow and confusing. I could shit a better plot out of my ass. Yea the gameplay was mildly entertaining but thats about it. And what made final fantasy into a great franchise was games like FFVI,VII, and X. Interesting and dynamic characters with understandable plot and conflict.
I bet you just loved X-2. Id call you a faggot but I have more respect for gay people in that. In stead I'll just call you a n00b bitch because thats what you are.

I can say I liked FFXIII, and those reasons (like "auto-heal at battle end"(<-and that's a bad thing?) and "fixed characters"(<-those type of rpg are pretty story-driven, so you can change your party whenever you have more than character))
the only thing you could criticize is "no-multiple-ending", the town shouldn't even exist in a world almost so apocalitic ( and you wanted the some criminal to enter in a shop and exit without getting arrested? )

I agree with all of those except for bayonetta. That one was just a cheap DMC rip-off.

No. I've been a diehard fan since I played V (Loved that one) Then continued with VI (That one was okay, kinda wierd.) Then VII (Which I never got to finish cause one of my friends stole it. Still loved it though.) Played the Demo for VIII and though it was a little rough. Skipped IX Went straight to XII after and thought it was okay except for vaan's annoying character and then went back to X and thought it was just well... suckish but still playable. Now i've played this one and it's just not up to snuff compared to the others. Hell dirge of cerberus was more final fantasy than this one and it was a third person shooter! Even being an absolute fanboy of the series doesn't mean you'll love every game that comes out. Hell I absolutely hated Final fantasy Tactics: war of the lions and yet I like most every final fantasy including the first three!

Because it's a series most every gamer is familiar with. Meaning it's too popular for square to "Just let die." When FF hits rock bottom is when they'll let the series go.

No, actually. Final fantasy VII was the game that re-immersed rpg's in the U.S and defined quite a few things about them. Not to mention VII STILL has the best story out of any of the final fantasy's. It brought in new things such as the "Limit Break" System which was copied in thousands of other RPG's and turn based games. as well as many other things. Honestly Square needs to just go back to what worked instead of forcing crap like this down our throats.

No, just no. Crisis core's battle system was the best since you could actually DODGE instead of just standing there like an idiot.

With these kinds of points, I'm surprised the article title doesn't include "and why you're an idiot if you think otherwise".

I'd rather check actual videogame sites for reviews rather than sites like this one.

You really haven't been playing FFXII if you are saying that it's not linear, lol. I mean, seriously. Also, FFVIII being the last "good" game? Is character design the only thing you base your RPGs on on what is good or not? That's sad, if so, because the story should come first rather than on how the characters look. :P

You seriously need to broaden your RPG horizons there, son. :P

there are a few points in this criticism that are either incorrect or not a bad thing

The party is always fixed- uhhh bs, in chapter 10 you get to select your party (ff7, which a lot of people consider the best, also had a fixed party till later in the game)

There are rather a lot of movies- NEVER a negative for a game, look at xenosaga the game was awesome BECAUSE it had a lot of cutscenes

The whole game system is just a clone of FF10- the only thing even close to FF10 is the chrystallium thing and even that seems loosely based off of the sphere grid

You can’t flee battles- its called reset you dumb ass

Your party is completely healed after each battle- someone please tell me why this is a criticism, please?

If the main character in your party dies it is game over- lots of other rpgs have this might not be a good thing but still

The best tactic is almost always endlessly attacking. There is next to no strategy or skill involved- endlessly attacking(especially at bosses) seems to be a one way ticket to death.

Shopping is only done at “online” shops on save points, with no proper shops to be found- makes sense story wise otherwise you wouldn't be able to shop at all if they didn't have this

There are some things that seem to me to be valid points like not enough gil and the status screen not showing enough info, what does each icon mean, is it slow or deprotect?

A few things to note:

1. Where in the *#&%(# is my airship?!? I have been playing Final Fantasy since the original game and have always looked forward to flying around the game world in my little pixalated airship.

2. So linear ugh... I might as well have been playing Final Fantasy: God of War edition... Hello? Squenix? Umm... I would like my RPG back now please... I mean if I wanted to play a game like that I would have purchased a game like that...

3. When was it made law that all games had to be ultra-realistic? Bring back the superdeformed characters if you have to. Just make the graphics look nice and make a FUN GAME like you used to... I mean come on people look at New super Mario Bros. It's FUN because it knows what it is and does it well... I think squenix has lost itself somewhere along the line...

Yeah story is all great and everything, but don't you rent a videogame to play it also?
Where's the challenge to just playing a story?
Where's the fun in earning a cutscene?
Where's the fun in having the game do everything for you?

Those people that say its all about the story are the same losers that play videogames on supereasy.

I can get better story from playing a crappy mmo off of facebook than this game FFXIII.
