Or we could meet up in rl together and knock out each other in the heads causing memory loss all the same.

Because a Final Fantasy grand strategy game does not exist.
I volunteer my head for Wolf's Blunt object. Personally I feel the brain damage may help me forget that a person posted that.
I think new releases rejuvenate interest in the series and re contextualize older releases; but these days, it seems like even the spinoffs have slowed down. XIII sequels and FFXIV just don't do it for me either.
And yes, we've sorely missed our devil's advocate, Socratic gadfly, or whatever titles you've rightfully reclaimed upon your return.
The simple answer is that we've not been given much to talk about. Final Fantasy XIII has run its course, and XIV is just another MMORPG. Another "true" Final Fantasy (XV) looks to be years down the line, and frankly, I don't want to spoil anything about it for myself.
I made a couple of threads a few days ago before getting distracted with work. I've mainly stuck in the VIII board since it's the last FF title I played and is still fresh in my mind. I don't post too much in the other boards because I either haven't played the game, haven't played much of it or it's been too long since I remember. I'll probably be more active in the VII board by the end of April since I plan to review that on the 28th.
There's very little to say about the FFs that were. After beating VIII - X-2, I didn't really feel I had a reason to post in those threads anymore. I never played XI, don't intend to shell out a monthly tribute to play it and thus have no reason to post in the thread (XIV as well). I haven't beaten XII but I feel I've read all that I'm going to read of interest or at least it seems that no one posts anything anymore. I don't have a 360 or PS3 thus can't play XIII thus won't waste my money buying it or my time talking about it. However, I've been going against the grain with Final Fantasy XV, deciding I liked it enough that I may buy the system just to play it. Other than that, there's really very little to say about it at the moment and up until the game's actual release.
No seriously people, I've been back for about a week and I've made close to 100 threads, you have no excuse. :colbert: The least you could do is post in them. :doublecolbert:
I'm glad you're back, but I haven't played an FF game in close to a year. The last two I was playing was FFIX and FFV. I remember where I am in both of those games, but I haven't had time to keep playing them since I have been so busy.
I've been responding to the threads, but what new is there left to say? Nothing. I don't play FFXIV, and FFXV isn't out yet...maybe we'll have more to discuss when it gets here.
You're trying to get milk from a teat that went dry quite awhile ago, my friend!
We've come up with quite a bit of topics for the Daily poll. Wolfie has done a phenomenal job of revving up Final Fantasy topics. It an be done!
Everyone seems to think it's a dead subject, but when the topic pops up, they respond!
