I like the medieval stuff. I find it interesting. But now, I think I've my mind. I don't think it's going to be a success anymore. However, I don't think it's going to bomb because of the way it is (ie-characters and such) but rather because you have to do SO many things in order to be able to play it. I've talked to people who love the FF series but are really dissapointed with the fact that it's going to be an online game. I honestly, don't like that either. Also, it's not going to be an online game like Diablo, it's just more... bizarre. I probably am going to end up not being able to play it.

I don't know, Meryl-chan. On a beginning I thought that the fact of the game being online would suck big time. I hated the fact that you have to connect, pay a monthly fee, and well, that you are "obligated" to do it if you want to beat it.
But, as more information I got about the matter, I began to change my opinion. At first I said "screw them Squaresoft, I'm not gonna buy this game" But now I'm almost sure I am going to buy the game (there's still more than a year to wait for it, so...) The fact that you create your own character makes it an outstanding feature IMO. Secondly, I love the graphics and stuff I've seen from screenshots. More over, It can mean that you and me could beat a boss together you know (that's what a friend of mine told me the other day when we were discussing the matter and I pretty much liked the idea) And well, kmnowing that the monthly fees for conection are not that high, I don't think it's that bad. But as I said in the beginning of the post, I still don't know. I think I am going to buy the game and beat it, but I do not know if it will be a success. Having also in mind that I've got a job and I make my own money (as many people around here, I am certain) and I spend it in whatever I please, unlike other younger players who may find all this expenses an obstacle and s**t.

Quite... despite all the crappy launch problems, Japanese gamers stuck with it. They also didn't cuss or blindly overate it until they'd actually played either...

But still, Final Fantasy has a pretty big fan base here in the US. And who knows, maybe they learned something from the flawed release in japan. And as we can see in japan, people are willing to buy the hard drive. |

Though I agree with you. 6.95 is actually quite reasonable for a month, when compared to what other MMORPGs charge...

FFXI doesn't deserve to be called a successor, it should be refered to as FF: Online...
But the evolution of a RPG powerhouse like FF, it looks like online gaming is natural and expected. When the PS3 comes out with it's broadband support built into the primary chip, online gaming will be more common and developers will take advantage of it's potential. |
