Not a great sign practically right out of the gate.

Although, to be frank, I'm still waiting for an apology for FFXIII being about 2/3rds tutorial.

Well.
Maybe it's time to kill the franchise at this rate.
Have they ever had two really crap games in a row?

Well. Maybe it's time to kill the franchise at this rate. Have they ever had two really crap games in a row? I'd consider it three in a row with both 12 and 13 being very sub-par at best.

Yeah, no problem with 12 at all. The storyline isnt as compelling as previous entries, but the rest was pretty standard FF imo.

I didn't like 12 all that much either. Found the story to be boring and didn't care for any of the characters except for Baltier.
Which is disapointing since memorable characters are usually the FF series strong point. I also didn't like that many of the maps were just long and boring with very few savepoints.
Seems like it's 3 bad games in a row in the FF series, 4 actualy if you count FF11 (I never played it but heard it's not that great despite getting mainly positive reviews)

I liked both 12 and 13, so I want to like 13 but its soooo boring. AND I LOVE FINAL FANTASIES! Also I'm guessing no one has played 14? I just saw it at Wal-Mart the other day and was like this is already out? It didnt really debut with a lot of fanfare.

Those are all great, hell the battle theme in 13 is honestly my favorite one in the series, the gameplay is decent, but my god, the story. It is like they went to TV Tropes looked at all the anime and JRPG tropes and thought everyone WANTED all those things.

Yeah, I haven't played it, but the company that made it apologizing this soon after a low key release can't be a good sign for the game's quality.

I didn't mind the story,granted I have never finished it because my dislike of the combat system stops me after a while.I just prefer turn based combat.I really liked 10's system.

Also, XIII is one of my least favorite FF's for one reason and one reason only: Hope, that unlikeable little prick.

Best thing is that they fired the whole FFXIV team and put in guys who worked on the expansions for XI, which is when the game took off.
