I have a bad feeling about this...

[Excelsior]

i didnt say the world was going to end, i said that the game is getting diffrent in a way that seems not to my liking, and if it keeps getting diffrent then i think FF is headed in a bad direction. id be perfectly content with the first 10 if thats what it comes down to however.

[kiesmama]

well i have played every single last one of this series, and ill say that the series is getting better, not going down hill. X was the best game in this series, by far, with IX running close behind in 2nd. i will agree with some of you that X-2 was a little stupid, but SE is only getting better, and from what i have been hearing they are coming out with 3 new ff games this yr including XII. so i doubt this is the end and if so i know im up chocolate creek without a popcycle stick.

X was my favorite one so far. It sucks that I keep having to defend such a great game.

Definitely looking forward to XII.

[KoShiatar]

Only thing I don't like so far, is that Mogs just don't look like Mogs. But like some kawaii rabbit thingy soooo much like many others I've seen before. :-(

...And Penelo's shoes, as well :-P

[Midnight Garnet]

i think it looks great... the characters look cool and the story seems really interesting! even though the battle system will be diff from the other final fantasys i'm sure it will be good...

[Destai]

I think it will be one of if not the best so far.
As far as graphics go its just as good as X with CG cutscenes and a seriosuly interesting and original looking style. I think it was inspired by Saudi Arabian styleings or something.
The music will have over 98 songs like 7,8,9,10 which was my favourites and the highlight of the series for me and they all had incredible music. Nobuo Uematsa is also doing the theme song and the guy whos doing the rest of the soundtrack is the same guy who did Breath Of Fire V and Star ocean 3 if Im not mistaken. The small pieces Ive heard so far have been very good.
The gameplay looks VERY enjoyable. The traditional battle system has been dropped unlike the rest of the series which should make it stand out and if the fightings anything like Star Ocean 3 it will ROXORS my world. The camera can be rotated 360 degrees which suggests to me there will be lots of places to explore. Which reminds me, The world map has been restored and there huge landscapes to explore. F-A----R bigger than other games in the series.
Its on two discs which is pretty rare for a PS2 game so it'll probably last a while.
The storyline will probably be familiar if you've played Tactics or tactics advance. Its taken all the races from Tactics advance and more races have been promised if Im not mistaken. The storyline is Final Fantasy so it cant be that bad.
Yeah I've got a bad feeling about this game

FFXI is pretty much completely different from any FF I've ever played and I love it, I'm looking forward to FFXII but I think I'm going to miss talking to people XD.

I'm looking forward to the different style of playing and battle system. You know what, no victory chant after EVERY SINGLE BATTLE is refreshing and when I finally hear it with my level up in FFXI, I get excited I won;t really miss it if it's not in FFXII, I'll just hook up an old FF to hear it if I'm THAT desperate. If you get all *Boo! It's only has FF title, it's not a freaking FF game boo! Where's cloud? WTF! *Garbage burn burn* Then maybe you need to pick up a book or something and get some fresh ideas. Final Fantasy is a Series, a line of Various games that have some similarities that makes it part of a series. It's not a sequel to another game. Seriously. If this is your biggest concern in life, you need to get out more.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and there is a marvel called RENTING if you don;t want to blow 80 bucks on a game you already decided is going to suck, although no one has tried it. Good luck!

I just hope its not as linear in terms of where you had to go like it was in FFX. I wish they'd bring the overhead world map back like they did in FFIX and below but I hear its going to be like FFXI in terms of the world.

[chionos]

The real tragedy would be if all FF's were cookie-cutter, b/c then the series would have never made it past 3. I think most ppl complain about the current FF, b/c in their mind they look like gurus for thinking the old ff's were superior. But really....they just look like fools.
I will enjoy FFXII if for no other reason than to enjoy the beauty of it. Screw the dissentors.

[YukiKiro]

i don't view X-2 as a true FF. it was good, but short and estrogen powered (not that that's a bad thing). the director of XII says he's getting ideas from X-2.... that is scaring me.

[Alder]

I was skeptical at first, but after looking at all available information and media about this game, I am fairly optimistic and excited.

I have a video clip of some E3 footage, and I've been watching it repeatedly for a few days. There's something about it that I like more and more each time.

I think I see what they're aiming for with this game. Immersion. They're using an approach influenced by MMORPGs to try to create a living, immersive world. So it's more than just a story, it's a world that contains stories within it. This is a very ambitious game.

If they can pull it off, it will be an incredible game. It will have the immersiveness and addictive gameplay of a good MMORPG, with the storyline and interactivity of a console Final Fantasy game.

I'm starting to have a very good feeling about it. I just hope that they come through with enough depth to make it work.

[YukiKiro]

i just took a good look at said video, and i must say, i feel much better now. it has a bit of an FFTA twist to it, take a pinch of the busy world of FFIX, a dash of X, mix it all together in a bowl of maturity and you get XII. i'm actually starting to look forward to its reliese.

[Renegade135]

I don't have a "feeling" about this game but from what I've seen I think this will be the best FF for me so far.

[Gnostic Yevon]

Well when I first heard about it it sounded good. The problem being that that was like 2 years ago. It was probably a great game for 2004 and maybe even 2005, but right now from what I hear, it's going to be somewhere in the range of December Japan and July USA, and most likely on the ps3. The thing is that they still won't admit it, and I can't wait until they announce a FFXII-2:VAAN JOINS N'SYNC.

I can't say much about the gameplay as no one has played it and they probably won't for a good long time.
