I'm only mixing them up because WK explicitly conflated them in his opening post.

The distinction everyone's making for FF6 is arbitrary. Lots of end game content is good unless there's too much of it and then it doesn't count as end game content at all? Where's the cut off...

Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn. Her natural inquisitiveness and willingness to question authority, which lead to her gaining a comfort level with technology that is uncommon in her world and eventually...

FFVIIR is the best implementation of action RPG based combat that still retains clear recognizable ATB elements. I would like an actual return to traditional ATB,but more games in the FFVIIR style...

I'd like to believe we will,but the current culture at SE seems to be against this.

Remember when Square Enix trademarked "Chrono Break"? I do.

FFT was definitely the best of them. I also have very little patience for tactical RPGs these days anyway. I've played some that seem pretty good, but it's been ages since I've actually completed a...

I love Xenogears, but as a general rule, no. In fact, I was initially uninterested in Xenogears based on the giant mecha concept. It doesn't really do anything for me. Also, all other Xeno games...

Well, I don't have a problem with a challenging dungeon per se (though tbh I don't care one way or the other), but I'd prefer any added dungeon to be more original than just fighting multiple of the...

Honestly, that sounds pretty similar to the Lunar Trials to me. Basically just an excuse to face harder versions of what you've already fought before. It's not something I would be looking forward...

In that case, I don't know. I've only played one FF port with an added optional dungeon that I can recall, FFIV. In that case, the extra dungeon was just an excuse for some new ultimate weapons. ...

Guess I'm not sure what you mean by optional dungeons, because in my book most of the PSX FFs had them. FFVIII at least had the Deep Sea Research Lab,which is certainly extensive enough to count in...

I have to agree with this. I was and am extremely against some of the choices made, which I feel were bad enough for the game on its own and fear will be even worse for the next parts. At its worst...

The ability to choose party members at the end of FFIV. I wanted that since I was a kid so I was glad to see it added to a later version. Not really much of a retcon but counts as a new addition.

FF -. It's good for a NES game. A nice intro to the genre but nothing particularly special.

FF2 - What were they thinking? I like the early foray into a more character driven game, but the...

In the past I would have said I don't care about portability, but the fact is I haven't played Switch on TV since the first few times In played BotW, and I found myself enjoying it more after I...

Zemus is an interplanetary racist though. Does he really need a backstory? Just being a hateful prick for no reason seems true to form for me. Granted, his characterization is mostly through...

Instead of writing them out, can I write Balthier into a good FF? No? Then I probably pretty much agree with Karifean on the Seymour thing. He could have been a good main villain, but they didn't...

The fight at the end was smurfed up to the point that I kept walking away not wanting to continue it, but to say it doesn't make sense is pushing it. People can become consumed by a desire for...

Not sure what you mean. Revenge is a pretty powerful motivator. I have some issues with Last of Us 2, but can't think of any character motivation issues.

Generally, yes, they always were up until FFXII (at least post NES). FFIV and FFVI were definitely and I don't even have to look at the year because they're my favorite games for the SNES. The...

Yeah v3 isn't as good as the other 2. Also I *probably* agree with you that the first is the best, but the first two are pretty close.

The problem with me giving game of the year as usual is that I'm behind on games and haven't played too many from this year. So it would probably be between Last of Us 2 and FF7 Remake. Both have...

I couldn't be bothered with it. To be fair to the Witcher though this was mostly due to interface issues I found infuriating and not core combat mechanics, story, characters, setting or anything...
