I absolutely loved XII, personally, but yeah, I know what you mean. I bought XIII in March and I'm still on the second disc. Every so often I'll pick it up and put in six hours over the course of a few days but I just can't get into it. I wouldn't be surprised if I never finish it.

Is it me being burnt out on JRPGs in general, or has the FF series just become a parody of itself, trading in innovation and creativity for eye candy and new colors of interesting hair styles? I'm not sure.

You are implying that X was not good.

You should feel bad.



I can understand arguing that it isn't amazing, perhaps. Actually no, I can't understand that either. FFX was amazing. But I can see where some people might exist who think FFX wasn't amazing.

But to go so far as to say it wasn't even good?

XI was also good, though it didn't get nearly enough attention for being an MMO. XII was also good, except for the last half. I'd say IX was the peak, and every game in the series has degraded since then. XIII was enjoyable, but honestly, it shouldn't be too difficult to beat it in the coming installments. This trend should reverse itself soon. Squeenix can't f*** around forever.

Pretty much on the money.
Though the best would be VI or VII.

FFX is what I use as my example of an "average" jrpg.

So yeah, it's good but just barely

If it doesn't hire some good writers to replace the s***ty ones it has left since its best one bailed or 'honorably departed', yes it can

Half of JRPGs are better than FFX? I wish I felt that way.

To be fair they don't need good writers. They just need a QA team that aren't afraid to speak up. I can't imagine the QA team for 13 actually played the game.

I liked XIII enough to say it was the last good FF. Last amazing FF was X though.

Take it up with Japan, they like it even more than VII and... possibly more than IV too, ohoho

I'm really interested in XII International. What do you have to do to play it beyond buying the game? Is there a complex modding process or is it just "well a lot of this is in Japanese so it might be somewhat tiresome to navigate."

there is actually an english patch out there that lets you play the entire game in english. check out the ffxii board, there should be a topic for it.

Well I don't even care about the patch it seems like it'd be good to help learn Japanese since I'm doing that right now.

I just wanna know if you buy the game do you need to mod your PS2 in some sorta way to be able to play it out of the box or not. (a quick glance at the FFXII/FFXII International board couldn't find me an answer to this)
