Default Re: Final Fantasy 13 Fastest Selling in Franchise History

The funny thing is, you seem to think I hate the game, but I don't. I liked it well enough. I enjoyed the time I spent with it.

You're right I hated FFX, I still beat it though, just to make sure I hated it.

I did play FFXI, but like I said don't know why we're considering an MMO as a final fantasy game, except for the fact that it has the name final fantasy. I don't know anyone else who considers it part of the series. I played FFXI for like 2 days honestly. I have 3 or 4 friends who play it, I though the concept was awesome. All my favorite job classes and I could make a cute little bear thing, or a giant bear thing, and play as them, in any class. The game was just trash though. I tried to play it by myself for a few hours and I tried to play it with my friends the next day. Even with a party of 4 (They started new jobs to level with me), it wasn't fun. For a lot of people it was I guess, but I'm just really not going to play an MMO, think the concept is silly of a game you have to pay to play, and when DLC is released you usually have to pay a premium price to get that too.

And yes I was there the entire time watching my friend play FF12. I actually would have enjoyed it, except I watched him play the whole thing. I saw all the big boss fights, all the story scenes, i even played a little for him during the end game stuff (Omega weapon took almost 5 hours to beat, so people needed to eat.) You honestly don't need to play an FF game if you watch the whole thing to say whether or not it's mediocre.

And you're wrong I started out extremely excited for 13. As reviews and impressions poured in I started to lose my excitement, and when I played the game I started to just realize how much this game was a failure at being a final fantasy.

As far as this game being short, for a final fantasy it is.
