some very good points brought up by evryone here.....

still i have to bang my ehad on the table everytime i hear someone say SE are running out of ideas.....

Ok Ivalice.....Who cares...its just a name...get over it....

btw....Gaia...Terra....were they not planetary/world names???...not bitching just saying...

also you could say that constantly using the same summons, magics, job classes, chcobos, weapon names, enemy names...even sprites.....

biggs and wedge....and if you care to notice, have you seen an ff so far without a cid in it???

the point is SE can do whatever the hell they want....they wont keep releasing the same [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] if its not gonna sell....and they aint gonna dissappoint the fans because fans = sales.....so to keep fans appeassed and prob to keep their own sanity they are always adding new stuff in...remixing from old games...bumping in new features to old trademarks such as chocobos and moogles.....

enjoy all the hard work the put into making allt hese new and exciting games.....

oh and i laughed my ass off at this one....

all the areas in ffx-2 were almost identical.....well aren't you a genius....what the hell does SEQUEL mean to you....a new world with new maps??...NO!

i always say this to people because its the way it is....Think yuo can do better....go ahead....go launch one of the most succesful RPG games companies...the merge with yet another successful company.....after a good 20 + years of making amazing RPG's and see how may ORIGINAL ideas you have to throw into a game....that is if you have enough brain power to get your head around the idea of what it takes to make an original game concept that people will actually want to play.....

WHY DO PEOPLE BITCH SO MUCH!....it is only a name???
