Yes, I'm a FF III fan.
For FF XV... I'd like a game like IX again. They can do everything the same gameplay-wise, just with a new (just as likable) cast and a new (just as worked out) story, that's all that I'd like. Of course, one could argue I could just go back and play IX then, but I just did that, and I want new stuff mixed with the classic superb IX stuff. IX was the best game ever made, yet so few FFs since have followed its brilliant example of what a FF should be...
So, that would mean:
-Medieval/Steampunk/Fantasy mixed setting like in IX
-Individual characters (no clones at all, each character has his/her/its own job and that's it)
-Nobuo Uematsu composing the score
-A real villain, not like XIII's pope, who was lame
-A friendly Cid (villain Cid is already old because none could top XII's Cid, so, give up, evil Ciddies, you'll never beat Draklor's very own Doctor Cid)
-Fun minigames (frog catching, Chocobo Hot & Gold, bring back that auction house)
-Optional boss that's challenging not because he bores you to tears (Yiazmat, I'm looking at you), but because he's mean (Ozma, you cheap bastard, I'm looking at you)
-Worldmap with airship, because even though it's illusionary freedom, flying the Holda Garde 3 around the world for fun was, well, fun
-An amazing final dungeon like Memoria again, please
-No breaking the 9999 damage limit. 9999 damage is enough. Give the bosses less HP instead of making million-damage moves. In IX, we did it all with Shock and Thievery and held our ground just fine, even against bastards like Ozma.
-Classic summons. Sure, they're just prettier Black Magic, but hey, it's a FF classic, why change it? I didn't like X, XII or XIII's summon systems.
-A nice finishing song like Melodies of Life again. ^^
-No advertising the game like the second VII. VII is old news, let it rest in peace, it deserves it. Don't compare your new games to it to draw in unsuspecting customers, it's cheap. Especially since XIII wasn't half the game VII was (and I think of VII as an okay game, nothing more).
-Classic ATB again, please. All this "dynamic, flashy Advent CHildren-ish battle system" is bull****.
-Speaking of battle systems, stop the "3 characters only" rule, PLEASE. Bring back 4 people to control during battles. You know, like in all but one of the Final Fantasy games before VII? Oh IX, you were so perfect... Who cares about loading times, you had a glorious party of 4 on the field...
Things in XV I'd like to see that were improved from IX:
-A better worked out trance (well, it had to be said...)
-No Excalibur II within 12 hours, hmmkay, SE? IX was an experience you had to take your time and enjoy, and then you throw in this 12 hour limit? Fail, absolute utter fail.
-Don't make the game end. Let the divine experience last for all eternity. Please!
