For a website thats dedicated to the series, one that has always been about trying something new each time, this forum is remarkably reluctant when it comes to change, and probaly the one that talks the LEAST about Final Fantasy, even compared to general gaming forums.

Say what you want about Nomura, I think the characters looks intriguing and fantastic, and the game looks pretty neat so far too.

Now everyone can go ahead and flame me.
I dunno. I was a member of a forum for one of my other favorite RPG series: Shining Force. Though there were plenty more Shiny games than just the Force ones. And long ago they were really good. And as Sega is typical to do, they had to ruin that by changing the series. Phantasy Star went through a ruining too. And don't even have to mention Sonic. But that's just Sega's ways. And Square isn't nearly as bad as Sega. But I think its healthy for fans to voice a dislike. Nintendo's changed Mario a lot over the years. But they respect that some people enjoyed old Mario and have taken to giving those people simpler more respectable games along with their revamping

I haven't liked the roads Final Fantasy has been going in recent years. I never finished 10 and barely even go into 12. Had to force myself to beat 8 and 9. Seemed like chores. Though I'm certainly no fanboy. It had nothing to do with "oh this is nothing like FF##, it doesn't feel Final Fantasy enough". Because I didn't really like Final Fantasy 5 either xD or 2 or 3 for that matter... I just couldn't get into the directions they're going lately. But then again. I don't think I'm the type of person you're talking about anyway :]
