Why do people hate CC?

[Rengori]

I would say that what made it lousy is what Nintendo has done over the years. They really lost me. For example, they kicked out Square by treating them badly, hence FF was switched to the PSX, and probably also changed because of it. And overall, they have screwed the customer since the N64. It seems their priority is far from giving customers what they really want, but instead to protect themselves at every turn at any cost. Even with sticking with cartriges while CDs would have made all the difference. and later of course, with weird disks that hold less than DVDs just so they can't be copied (and yet they can). in these ways and others they have alienated the 3rd parties that used to reign on their consoles

Yes, it seems like Nintendo has to do all the work witht he games, but I swear I'm going to stab someone if another Wario Ware game is released.

because people saw the title final fantasy and assumed it would be the same as the others, but the only reason it has final fantasy in the title, and some things like moogles, is so people would buy it, it was suppossed to be a very different type of game series and they decided, hey if we put final fantasy in the title it'll probably sell more.

Now as for anti-nintendo because of what they did, well cartridges are a lot more convenient when it comes to saving, it save right on the cartridge, and they're a lot easier to keep from getting ruined, and the loading times are a lot less... there were a lot of advantages to staying with cartridges.

and from what I hear, most 3rd parties are extremely interested in the revolution... because apparently they know more than has been released publically, so I'm looking forward to it. And how could you shoot down the company that has made practically every innovation for video games...

THE JACKAL

Flawed arguement. FFT and FFTA were just as different from the standard FF formula, but they weren't hated nearly as much as this one.

FFT and FFTA aren't nearly as different from FF as CC is. I mean, you have all the character classes, the abilities, weapons, levels, all that stuff. FFCC had none of this, maybe some of the same weapons, and magic spells, but every other part of the game had nothing to do with FF.

The answer lies in the fact there has been no new posting in here since, well this last guy.

[Monster Hunt]

I like CC... Isn't hate a bit too strong?

[karatehero]

Ahh, here is yet another reason that I don't like this game.

(SPOILER)So I beat the last 3 stage boss, only to get to some weird world that has nothing to do with the story so far. They ask me stupid questions about the story, and then I continiously get killed by these 2 guys with red masks.

Why make the ending so long and drawn out? Why not have a save point somewhere? This game has been frustating from the word go and the ending hasn't dissappointed me. There has been very little plot from the very begining, only to throw plot in at the last second?(SPOILER)Who wants to hear about Hurdy and stuff? I never would have thought that they had anything to do with anything! Its like they just through the plot together at the last minute.

Nintendo really droped the bomb on this game. The sound and graphics were stellar IMHO. But it shouldn't have a single player option. Its designed for multiple people (for some reason) so why not just say it?

The only problem is that it's hard to find people with the same interest in Final Fantasy that aren't ready to go at each other's throats. Oh, and the fights on who has to carry the mana thingy!

I liked the game to some extent; however, I knew what was to come after reading about it in Nintendo Power and Animerica. The game was soley created on the idea of a multi-player extravaganza. However, who honestly has three other friends who own a cable, a gba, and an interest in such a kiddy-like game? The story really intrigued me though and I liked the storyline. I never got past the second year, simply because I played every character the game could muster.
What I really despised is that on the game if you don't have a gba nor a cable you can never enjoy the game to its full capacity.
The gba is in fact ten times more important than the controller itself. They might as well have made the game a gba one then --;

[Monster Hunt]

^ true, i don't like how you have to use gba's instead of having a split screen or whatever.

[TurkSlayer]

Its not very good unless you have friend to play it with you, and not only would I need time to actually have someone over, I'd have to get several more controllers, not to mention my own GameCube instead of my neighbors. Oh, and then I'd need some friends...

That, and I'm not a big fan of the cheerful feeling of the game. I need some darkness, murder, betrayal, tragedy, that kind of thing. Not at all Crystal Chronicles.

[Creed]

This is what my thoughts are about the game:

Story-alright, but lacked feeling(I want hate and love and crap like that)
Battle-exellent,I like real time battle systems it gets my blood pumping(I also like turn based dont get me wrong)
Items-sucked monkey balls,must I say more
Character development-I just kept giving my character hearts,so it sucked


Thats what I thing about it......tho I REALLY HATE SPEECH BUBBLES!!!!Just have the speech box like the others or give voices for god sakes

mog, the moogle

Unfortunately, IIRC, there is no Mog in multiplayer. Which was a really stupid idea, because it means that one of your fighters has to carry the chalice.

[Destai]

I think its pretty good. The graphics and world in general are beautiful and unique. So's the music. Its a particularly great FF soundtrack. The characters have nice designs too and the gameplays simple and enjoyabke. I got the GBA cable with the game in a special box at the same price as the game alone. I played it with some friends a few times and it was pretty good.

Actully i liked the mana thing. sure it got kind of annoying when the person carrying the thing couldnt fight. but it was a good way to keep your party together. as anyone who played gauntlet knows. when you dont have something like that, one person tries to go one way, the other a different direction, and you never get anywhere.

Oh, I agree, it was a nice system. But why couldn't they have the Mog holding it in multiplayer too? And have him strong enough that he doesn't get tired every 30 seconds... >.<
