Well the thing with Final Fantasy games is that they write a new world, new mechanics and new characters every single time they make a new Final Fantasy game, that's 12 original worlds, with original characters, original species and inhabitants (Besides the recurring species) and 12 different game mechanics. How many studios do you know that have done that? Much less hit spot on with all 12. Give them a break.
I happened to like the XIII mechanics and world, I just didn't like the linearity and characters, and here they are trying to redeem themselves, I say give them a chance.

Man, it's like Square doesn't even try with these games anymore.
To quote Yahtzee on this:
"Please stop buying these games so we can do something else! We have totally run out of ideas! I spent the last 6 months rendering the glisten playing off the greasy exposed breasts of some athletic hip-cocking slut, and now I want to kill myself!"
Really, they should just stop trying.

FF will be around until Square decides to either die, gracefully step down or y'know start making good games, and even then some other dev team could try and revive FF after that.
Also how is this a surprise? The fact that it's FF13 kinda you a hint that Square is big on sequels.

Why make a sequel to the worst FF game since X? This will probably turn out worse than X-2 even!
I'm going to guess that you don't know that FF14 already came out and it is universally hated probably even more than FF13 because its not even a functional game. It's a clone MMO of FF11 and is so riddled with control problems and an impossible to navigate UI that SquareEnix extended the 'free play time' indefinitely until they fix the problem. Which is going on half a year now? Extended beta test ftw?Xzi said:
Also FF10 was good but boring, and FF10-2 was alright but very fun.
I hope the same rings true for FF13.
Also, doesn't FF13 already have two sequels/side stories in the works? FF13 Versus and FF13 Agito?
THANK YOU! I have a huge hatred for people who just claim that each Final Fantasy is a sequel. Dislike it if you want, but never doubt that Square really put a lot of work into creating a new world every time, and new ways to play their games.lasting_Child said:
I personally enjoyed 13. Sure, the lack of towns annoyed me, but I've always said that the party was on the run, so they wren't going to get a chance to stop in at a town and take a few days out. Plus, it really gave characters time to interact with each other.
Plus, Sahz was awesome.
To me, Final Fantasy has become like Pokemon at this stage, it's an entity that is just there, I'm not a fan of FF or Pokemon (the new ones anyway), but I've come to terms with the fact that neither of them will end because it will be bought and loved regardless of whether it's a genuinely good game or not.
GamesRadar would like to remind you that they called it. [http://www.gamesradar.com/f/the-top-7-games-we-want-announced-in-2011/a-20110110122039877081]
Well Lightning was pretty hot. With that in mind whatever gets cute cosplayers in pink hair can't be a bad thing. Then again what FF characters aren't young and beautiful? (I know there's some, point is they're the exceptions to the rule.)
Hey maybe the sequel will be better than the original, it could happen. Look at The Road Warrior. or... Highlander? No forget Highlander.

Square-Enix...Brave Fencer Musashi!....then the sequel!YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID!Poor child!
OT:As much as I hate the series,Kingdom Hearts fans should not have to wait for 3 FF games and KH spin-offs to get the sequel they have waited to patiently for.And isn't Final Fantasy supposed to have a good self-contained story?

You'd think after what happened when they made a sequel to an FF game before with FFX-2 would have taught them that its not a good idea to make sequels to games which have already saved the world.
Once the main story is over it really doesn't leave enough substance behind to warrant an entirely new game being made about it. It ends up being ho-hum, boring and most of convoluted.

Btw, so I'm like "Speaking of Highlander, wasn't Square-Enix supposed to be working on a Highlander game?" Yes they were. But due to their financial situation it has been canceled. Well great. They cancel a new game based on a nifty premise to make room for a sequel to an unpopular one. Sigh.
Why do half the posts in this thread boil down to "I thought FFXIII sucked, ergo anything even tangentially related to it must suck as well."?
Or is "benefit of the doubt" too much of a stretch for some of you?

Oh, well that certainly is...a thing. $10 says it's a movie, god knows they've been going in that direction since 7...
But seriously, 13-2, 10-2? Really? Those titles sounded good to you guys, Square?

Square I defended you. I said XIII was good when everyone else hated it. And now you give us this shit. Fuck you.
Also where has Versus XIII gone? Vanished into the ether?
