Really what's so wrong with just a regular sword or a character that doesn't mirror someone who already exists?
what's wrong with it? it's been done over and over, again and again, for the last twenty years. square's just trying to do new things with the genre that havent been done before. as much of a fan that i am of traditional RPG stylee, i don't want to buy the same game for the rest of my life. I love RPGs, and i hope that in the future that companies like square continue to show me things ive never seen before - graphics wise, and theme/style wise. also, no need to trash on a game that no one knows truly ANYTHING about.
No reason NOT to either.

And I agree I like seeing new things. But the summons being mechanical transformers? A main character that's quoted by the makers themselves as just being "A female Cloud", and very little talk about the characters and story and more talk about the graphics and action battles. Really I don't see a redeeming feature about the game as of yet except it'll have the flashiest graphics in the series on a new game engine they will just toss out when they make XIV anyways. Unless SE throws out some sort of crazy new info that is actually half decent, I'm holding to it looking to be a bad game as of now.
LOL, you say "redeeming feature" as if the game's already in the hole. Like others have said, it's so absurd for you to take such an extreme position on something that... doesn't.... even.... exist yet.

If all this "Trendy Pessimism" wasn't childish enough, the most hilarious part of it all is that this game is being made by the same people who brought you Final Fantasy VI.
