Of all of the RPGMaker games, why would you choose this awful Final Fantasy remake? Why not something slightly original, like Legion Saga or Survivor: NYSE? Ugh, I can't stand Final Fantasy and I hate fangames even more.

You got to be kidding... :ranting: Final Fantasy are the greatest games ever made...They r the reason that made me love rpgs.

I agree with foxy.

What does Final Fantasy offer that other games don't? Its games are repetative and rarely offer an innovative plot, focusing more on graphics or one-dimensional characters rarely over the age of 20. Its battle system is sub-par, it offers nothing excellent or exciting and the games themselves are standard. Why settle with mediocore when you can play excellent games.

I don't particularly like console games but I know a good one when I see one. Games like Suikoden, Star Ocean, and Valkyrie Profile are overlooked because of Final Fantasy mania, a game that consists of not nearly as much substance as the others. Final Fantasy has never really innovated anything other than media impressions on RPGs in a negative way.

Look at the recent Final Fantasies. I think this picture speaks for itself.



Is that your ideal hero? He looks more like a Backstreet Boy than a champion determined to save the world. All Final Fantasy offers is good graphics with a hackneyed plot and stereotypical anime-like characters. Just look at Final Fantasy X. Would people have liked that game if the graphics weren't so good? No. I've noticed that people who like Final Fantasy generally care more about graphics than gameplay.

Final Fantasy is just an over-hyped sub-par RPG that offers players nothing that they can't find anywhere else.

Ahem... You mean "what does other RPG games have that Final Fantasy did not have already?", isn't?

Thought so. k:

*eyeballs out on stalks*

I can see the Final Fantasies series have a lot going for them....

Well I haven't played any of the Final Fantasy games all the way through, so I have no idea what the stories are. But if you want a good story play Grandia 2, I loved it, don't know why, it has quite a bit to do with religion, and if you took any notice of the last thread on religion you would know how much I hate it. But I loved this game. k:

Someone please tell me that that's not the fruitiest picture of a video game character they ever saw, because I can't convince myself otherwise.

Just for the record:

Grandia II kicks behind!

And the story in Final Fantasy X is the ONLY story in which I almost cried at the ending. I got a real big lump in my throat while finishing that game. No other game has ever done this to me before.

And the graphic aspect only came with FF VII, before this it was standard graphic, but they used it in a way unheard of before. If you are after a really good plot you should get hold of Final Fantasy VI, or X... but apparantly you are stuck on not liking ANY of the Final Fantasy games.

I've half done FFX and got bored and stopped playing it. Repetitiveness is what kills me in that game. But whole concept and story are great! Also movie sequences are great! (

I got FF Tactics (GBA) and that's very interesting. There is FF 1 & 2 (also for GBA) that I might get when I'm done with this semester.
