The main issue I have with SE lately is how long it takes to get the main numbered entries out. I don't actually have a problem with the games themselves. I don't think XIII was a bad game. I think it was a bad Final Fantasy game, because the series has produces some games that I fell in love with, and XIII didn't do that, but I don't think it was a bad game.

I've finished it more than once. There are so many games I've tried and turned off after a few hours. Or games that I played about halfway through and gave up because it was such a chore and I didn't like it. FFXIII meanwhile I have played and finished more than once. Heck sometimes I'm even in the mood for the paradigm system. That's not a bad game.

And even then, let's say I didn't like it at all. Well, I liked XII. And X. And X-2. And IX. And VIII. Am I really going to give up on the series that has made so many games that I absolutely adore because they made one whole game I don't like? No. I'm going to give XV a try. I'm excited about it! If I don't like XV? I'll give XVI a try. If I don't like that one, then I might think a little harder about buying the next one.

But yeah, personally, XIII is on the same wavelength as VII. Good game, bad FF game. Like I said, the main thing for me is having to wait foreeever for XV. I do find that pretty frustrating.
