XG better than FF?

**DocFrance** · 02-15-2005, 06:23 AM

The people who make Final Fantasy refuse to innovate. That is why the series will ultimately fail, perhaps soon.

There are much better game series that have the magic that FF used to have back when it was still fresh.

FFXII is immensely innovative within the scope of the series.

It has potential. We'll see when it comes out, I suppose.

So I've heard, but I've also heard that FF12's release has been delayed indefinitely.

Meanwhile, I'll be busy playing XS Episode II, which will be in my hands no later than this Friday. And I've heard the battle system in this one is also radically different from its predecessor.

Japan: Spring 2005
States: Later in 2005

That's not my idea of a "definite" release date, if that's what you're trying to show me.

**Kawaii Ryûkishi** · 02-15-2005, 07:20 AM

It's a world of difference away from "delayed indefinitely."

It's not at all uncommon these days for even high-profile games to not have a definite release date until about a month before that date, either.

The only FFs to remain cool now are 1,6,7, 8 and Tactics.

**DocFrance** · 02-15-2005, 05:09 PM

That's debatable.

Xenogears -- i only played little of it

and i'm not as crazy like my brother is about it

. it may be one of Square's greatest hits

, but Final Fantasy is Square's GOLD

It's hard for me to say that Xenogears is better than Final Fantasy because I have grown up with Final Fantasy. In fact, I don't know what I would be like today if it wasn't for Final Fantasy. It's hard for me to say that XG is better than FF because I just played xenogears for the first time a while ago. I loved it, and I think it just might have had the most amazing story I have ever experianced in a game, but I am not sure I am ready to bring myself to say "XG is better than FF."

Xenogears is not better than Final Fantasy

. it'd be like a famous composer declaring that he's better than Beethoven

. Final Fantasy is a legend

.

**Doomgaze** · 02-17-2005, 06:02 PM

Nah, it's like a famous composer declaring he's better than U2. Sure, they USED to be good...

**Yuffie514** · 02-17-2005, 08:15 PM

there are billions of FF fans across the world compared to that of Xenogears

. i don't have all the answers to why FF is perhaps the longest living RPG legend

, but i think one of them is 'cuz it always does a better job when it comes to giving fans what they want

.

Again, "the unwashed masses like it!" isn't the best arguement. They like Ashlee Simpson, too.
