To be honest, I'm not as keen with twelve as I was when the others released. I think Squaresoft joining with Enix might have ruined the franchise. Firstly, the number of spin-offs for VII in my opinion has ruined the essence of it. But back on track, 12. If it turns out to be a quest game like 11 and 10-2 then I fear SQUARESOFT might have ruined the franchise. The reasons I fell in love with these games was the sheer exploration factor and amazing story to go with it. Huge world maps to explore with immense freedom and an extremely solid storyline. The idea of bringing missions into it seems to me like the freedom is being cut out, like you HAVE to follow this certain part of the game to progress to the next. It seems as though SQUARESOFT are trying to attract different gamers to try and hook to the series, since the fact final fantasy fans are quite distinct, you either love the series or you detest them. Well anyway I'll stop babbling, but I'm sure many of you might feel the same way ?
