Final Fantasy VII: Overrated?

[The Crystal]

So, let me get this straight. Somebody played through Final Fantasy VII a so called 'innovative' RPG, and demanded that a snowboarding game themed off of it should be made?

Did you even play it? Even if it's popular doesn't mean it's not over-milked and overrated. Gran Turismo was popular and I played it but does that mean it deserves a flight simulator spin-off?


Whatever, I don't care if it's popular, I just think it's overrated, or at least I just don't think it needs all those spin-offs no matter how popular and seeing a lot of the fans putting the entire compilation on a pedestal next to the Bible is just fuel for the fire.

Looking to your posts, it's clear you don't even know the meaning of "overrated". You are confusing it with "popularity".



And seriously guys... Most people today see the word "overrated" as something bad, and use it to insult what they don't like.
This is why so many people use it to describe FFVII, because they don't like it, OR they don't like the fanbase, and insult the game to piss them off. But in some cases, people just mistake "overrated" with "popular".
If you guys go to other forums and sites, you will see that there is A LOT of people bashing or underrating it, and a few who are actually overrating it.

The problem with FFVII, is that it was so overrated in the past few years, that it pissed a lot of people. And now those people are everywhere, bashing it everytime they can.

IMO the overrated past of FFVII, made the game be underrated today.
As stated before, hating FFVII and bashing it is the new "cool". Everyone is doing it.
