Sadly, as with VeloZer0, my only expectation is that it won't be too big of a disappointment. I don't remember when exactly it was, but I remember having lost all hope for FFXIII before it even came out (and I was really excited for it when it was announced). I was able to enjoy FFXIII like "hey, this actually isn't a bad game!" and fend off the ever-present feeling that "this game should be a lot better."
This is the spirit the series needs to get back to: making a game for the hell of it, not just to fulfill an expectation the fans and stockholders have when your announced product is four years in the making.
