Ugh, I think I want the last few minutes I spent listening to that argument back.

No, it should not be called Versus XIII. That was always a stupid name. And while it may have started under this whole FFXIII umbrella, looking at what we know about XV, I think it's safe to say that it doesn't have a whole lot in common with XIII. The story seems completely removed from XIII aside from perhaps some underlying themes, the environments are more open, the gameplay is action based instead of a troutty turn based system trying to trick you into thinking it's fast paced, and the art style in XV actually looks pretty good so far. Moreover, why the hell would they want to associate what is, at this point, a completely different game with FFXIII? XIII was awful. It's reception overall could best be described as luke warm.

This guy is whining about renaming it because he wants a a new game that pushes the series forward, but seems to have missed that it's shaping up to be quite different from previous FF titles, and with the real time combat alone will push the series somewhere it hasn't been. So basically, this game is everything he wants in a new main series FF, except he doesn't like that it started under a different name. Which is just a really dumb argument. I'm sorry, but if that affects your view on a game then it may be time to re-evaluate your priorities in your gaming life.
