    That. Also difficult to get the hang of, an un-engaging story, a sucky ability system, un-interesting characters.

    I would not like to see this game not out yet. As it isn't. And we still don't know anything. We might still get playable women.

    I don't want to see this rushed. I want it to be polished. And I don't want to see a typical, clichè, saccharine love story, though the only FF to do that in recent years was XII, so I'm not even hoping that anymore.

    A repeat of XIII.

    I think at this point it's pretty safe to say that won't happen if SE knows what's good for them

    Hearing how well they turned XIV around with A Realm Reborn gives me hope.

    I prefer not to see an overly-melodramatic story. I'm so sick of that. Go back to a more whimsical tale. FFXIII just took itself too seriously all the time, that's what ruined it (other than it being a convoluted linear mess with an uninteresting battle system).

    Just to add on to that, I would really prefer a main character that is upbeat (e.g. Zidane). Why can we not have that, it would allow me to connect and empathise with their story much more easily.

    Agreed. Don't take yourself so seriously SE!

    What I'd prefer not to see?

    'Old age' beginning at 25

    Character designs and costumes that are totally disconnected from their supposed origins and occupations

    A main cast of glossy-skinned, shiny-haired teenagers

    A closed-off world devoid of exploration, discovery and wonder

    Children as playable characters. A cliche supervillain. Bland dialogue.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Noctis is actually supposed to be pretty weird and quirky, if Nomura's to be believed.

    And another male character that acts like Snow Villers.

    Yes ! We need more Zidane !

    Noctis looks like he's the type of guy that sits at home all night long listening to Chemical Romance, Linkin Park and 3 Day's Grace.

    I don't want to see any clowns. I smurfing hate clowns.

    I'm not a big fan of Marmite either so any reference to that... would not be appreciated

    Not to be mean or try or trigger anything, but how do you feel about Final Fantasy 6 ?
