I don't think the lack of blood and gore makes a game kiddy. Besides, from what I've seen so far, Final Fantasy XII has a pretty dark war story, and the opening war sequence is quite graphical too. FF Versus XIII had quite a dark trailer too.

I actually would like to see some blood during a certain Aeris part in FF7, because a huge-ass sword that's nailed through a person's body should force SOME bood to gush out; but in that scene there's nothing. :eek:
To tell you the truth, it looks extremely stupid. :D
With the release of FFXII, i think not.
thats why 7 and 8 are the best they are not kiddy
^ Yeah... riiiggghhhttt...
Many other FF games that aren't kiddie-
FFVI
FFII
FFIV
Yeah.
Edit: And more the kiddie (FF3, FF5, FF1) Just means that they are more fun than the darker titles.
to be fair FF titles below VII i dont put into the catagory because the graphics werent good to show much blood i think you could see some in FFVI at one point but its been so long its hard to remember.
but as far FFIX, FFX and XII there were times where blood should have been drawn and yet they decided not to show it.
btw i still love all 3 of those games.
Then mentioned a guy in FFX get frickin' split in half, and people lying in frickin' pools of frickin' blood.
FFVIII had meh amounts.
FFVII had the trails and some cuts.
FFIX shouldn't have blood, otherwise it would ruin the lighthearted feel that made it distinctive.
FFXII was a bit more violent.
FFX-2 was rather suggestive.
FFXI has some blood.
I don't want blood, blood is nauseating and I turn irrational when I see it.
Sex, meh, no. It would ruin it.
Drugs? Meh, not really.
I really don't play much games over an M rating simply because I'm not a fan of graphical stuff. I like how FF is, only showing blood and sex when it is partially necessary.
Man tell me about it. I miss all the burning, looting, bleeding and shooting of yesteryear. I mean, how awesome was it when Cecil tore Dr Lugae in half and we got that awesome scene where his guts were spilling out all over the ground? That was brilliant, true final fantasy.
(SPOILER)I am of course talking rubbish, since FF has always been kiddy-centric
well, FF12 is full of murder and dark themes and i was suprised to find it was a 16+.
some have a slightly kiddy feel but its not a big problem. SE have taken all of this into account and they wont make some massive mistake. its as kiddy as they want it to be.
It dosen't have to be a sexual bloodfest to be deemed "mature." Take most movies, you guys adore them for maturity and it's about as inapropriate as a Barney episode.
Technically, all blood does is shock you with its gore. It can't move you psychologically, so it moves you by throwing blood in there. What's so mature about that?
Sex? Sex, meh, I don't think its necessary, but that wouldn't stop from playing.
Drugs? Same as above.
Thing is, maturity isn't the content, but the actual game. Blood dosen't create horror, sex dosen't create romance, and drugs dosen't create drama, HORROR creates horror, ROMANCE creates romance, DRAMA creates drama, and MATURITY creates maturity, so if Final Fantasy turns into a sex-infested bloodshow, which I hope dosen't happen, it would ruin the already mature setting, content will just make it well, sick.
If anything, FF I-V were the most kiddy. But being kiddy doesn't make those FF Games bad since it doesn't interfere with the gameplay.
The kiddier FF games seemed the most fun. But I don't think FF2 was really kiddy. It had alot of dying and stuff.
