Most consumers of Final Fantasy is moreover male dominated and cannot connect with female thoughts. Most people are afraid of a prequel or sequel that will ruin a games original plot, or will not be of any interest as the original. We should worry about criticism after the release. Opinions never help much interest for other people, as I've been appointed many games, which in my opinion sucked, but was a great game for many others.

*Not degrading females in any way.*
I'm sorry but, you are indeed wrong. If this was the case Dead or Alive, Bloodrayne, and Tomb Raider would all be dead by now.

FFX-2, if not for the mere fanboys, the people who actually thought it was a fun, worthwhile game, and nice to see some originality (like GASP myself!), did anything but bombed. It was one of the top selling games that year and it won RPG of the year in Japan, among other awards and recognition from game mags.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it did horribly and it's the end of the FF series, and I'm sick of seeing that logic all over these forums since FFX came out.
