If you guys haven't noticed yet, I love the game, just for different reasons than you do.

Being an amateur writer, the storytelling is very important for me and I didn't like what I saw in XII. It obviously has some problems with it. 3 continents have played and 3 continents had people feeling like me.

Maybe that's just me being being "subjective" or me "missing the story" who knows ? I always thought of myself as being good in text interpretation, I never had problems with it before and got good grades in my writing classes. But there's a first time for everything, right ?
Yeah I know we've done this routine several times but someone has to stand up to you

I know you like the game for different reasons but I will vehemetly defend the storyline cause I personally liked it.

Also, I'm sorry if my post sounded like I was questioning your ability to write and understand proper story structure, it wasn't. Of anything I feel you just have an ideal set of criteria for proper story writing (which is natural for writers) and FFXII just didn't measure up to this criteria in your eyes. god knows I'm a lousy writer and I have my own bias' which prevent me from ever liking FFX in terms of writing and character work. I still believe that Yuna is incredibly two dimensional and flat as a character, as well as the sole problem with the FFX storyline. I just try to show you how I interpret the story based on my personal criteria.

Sorry if I seemed like an ass but I did write it around 3:30 in the morning where I am so I may have been pretty cranky :laughing:

As for your post Elpizo. I don't necessary agree with Vayne wanting to die cause he was immortal but I do feel you bring up some interesting points on Venat who will always be a figure of specualtion on these forums. Honestly, I'm waiting for the "Venat theory" threads to start in another year after the fresh car smell of FFXII wears off.
