    Default When will it all end?

    when WILL it all end? I am, of course reffering to all the sequels/spinoffs of ff7 that are either out or are currently being made. Currently SE has 3 in the making (crisis core, AC and DOC) and 1 out (before crisis).And all of the ones in the making go stronly against the flow of your typical ff. DOC is more action, AC is of course a DVD and crisis core is ( I believe) an action RPG. As a traditionallist I find this absolutley chilling. As mentioned they are so completely different from a series that has had so much sucess sticking to a basic RPG format. Not only that but this means that SE currently has FOUR final fantasies in the works. I remember the good old days when they had one, mabe 2 FF's in the making. Now, the have four ff's going, 3 of which are non-traditional? I dont like this at all...
    Organized people are just to lazy to look for things.

    I don't know when it will end, but couldn't you just not buy the games if you didn't like it?

    So... you dont like the fact that they're giving us more? Is there no end to the things FF fans will bitch about? Square is giving us what we asked for, especially for the drooling FFVII fans. If you dont like the games, dont buy them.

    And isnt a little dumb to bitch now, when no new additions to the complilation have been added for months?

    As always, if Square does the same thing over and over, they've lost touch, they're stale, they suck. However, if Square does different things, branches out, experiments, they're stupid, they've sold out, and they suck. They really cant win. FF fans are the most fickle and spoiled fans out there, and it shows.

    Quoted for truth.
    Remember: Just because you might not like a game does'nt mean noone else does. And vise versa. Everyone has their own opinions.

    Thanks to Sagensyg for the sig!

    And, once again, they're just video games. They don't need to ruin your whole life.

    So you don't like FF:CC and FFT I take it? Perhaps then you don't like the Mana games for not being traditional turn-based RPGs. Or Chrono Trigger for not having random encounters like a traditional turn-based FF RPG... FF is branching out, and setting new standards as well as taking cues from other niches in this genre. No big deal. Things have to evolve or they become extinct. This includes FF, and RPGs in general.

    I see all the releases of FFVII games as new chapters in a book. Some chapters are not always similar to the other chapters, but always have a connection with each other. I'm kind of glad that they are releasing all these games, mainly I would like to know more of history and outcomes of the game itself.

    a few years ago...

    Hey I have this great idea, how about we make a roleplaying game that you can play over the internet with people all across the country. It will have to be an action RPG but it can be on such a huge scale and there isn't really an end to it and millions of people can play it at once.

    Everyone else, hell no that idea will never work...

    Nowadays, I go to the store to look at the new computer games, name one that can't be played massive multi-player over the internet. It's chances that become big, and Square is not only trying new things, but appeasing the people who wanted more FFVII at the same time. I personally find it awesome they're trying new things. Yes I love traditional FF games, but something new will be great to play, especially made by a company I love. How about before getting mad about the games, we wait and see how they are, deal?

    I think they have a lot of resources and don't know how to make good use of them..

    They should focus on making an RPG title that is worth playing.. Just like in the god ol' days..

    "Worth playing" is completly relative. I thought X was completly worth playing. And as far as I can tell, XII is completly worth playing.

    Why is this thread here? Shouldn't it be closed or moved to a FFVII sequel forum? I'd PM a mod, but Murder didn't seem to think this needed to be moved or closed.

    See? This is what I was trying to say in that other thread. :fencing:
    I don't want it to end. As long as they're all good.
    I want there to be 5050.1 spinoffs and sequel/prequels of FF7 and any other FF game as long as they turn out good.
    I want my grandchildren's adopted daugter's sister-in-law's cousin's illegitimate bastard son to be able to enjoy FF7's divinely awesome universe.

    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.
