KH is different though as it's a running series and not separate games.

Again FF7 was the ultimate example of breaking hugely from the previous formula. Completely modern/futuristic setting complete with global warming allegory, 3D, new magic system, only 3 party members, etc. Believe it or not there were a lot of fans back then who hated what they did with FF7 and though the series should have "stuck with its roots" etc. So I really do understand that line of thinking. Not that I trust modern Square to make anything on par with that today. But I'm fine with doing something completely new and different.

They took a huge risk with FF7 of alienating the entire fanbase but it's what ended up turning FF from just a popular JRPG series to *the* JRPG series.
