Seeing as they've already said it's going to be more like the other FF games (towns, NPCs that matter, etc) that article is pretty retarded.

Personally, I don't care, since no one seems to know what the hell "RPG" describes anyway.

I remember when Mass Effect came out everyone going on about how it's one of the "best RPGs ever", and I'm finally getting around to playing it now...

And if that's really the case, a game like Mass Effect or Fallout 3, is what people mean when they said a "real RPG"? Then I don't want FFXIII-2 to be a "real RPG", or any other future FF game for that matter.
