It's simple, we kill the Lightning.
Haha. This too.

You haven't even played lightning returns! Anecdotal but most people I know who didn't play 13-2, didnt do so under the pretense that first is 'shit' so the rest must be as we'll even though they rectified every problems the first one had, such as open world. This is what I mean by overreacting.
Make it less embarrassing.
Seriously, what is this suppose to be?
A video game character? A woman? A robot? I'm struggling here.

Better, less cheesy story. The FFXIII stories have been some of the cheesiest generic anime shit I've seen.
7 and 11 year old cousins have no clue what Final Fantasy even is. They own a Wii, and an Xbox 360. They know what Skyrim is, they know what Zelda is, they know what Grand Theft Auto is, even Assassins Creed.
So I think what they need to do is have better marketing, especially in the West. There are probably millions of gamers today who've probably never played a single Final Fantasy game.

I don't know if it's just because I am older now, but every time I see screens of the latest FF game I look at the characters and feel nothing. It's all too androgynous or boy bandy. The last FF I liked was the one with Rinoa or whatever her name was. It had that sick card game in it.
Fire Toriyama.
Also they dont need to go back to FF12. The one they need to look at and emulate is FFX. FF12 while ambitous had its issues and its story and characters barring a few werent that special
Different perspective somehow.
XV being just a good game isn't going to cut it IMO. It needs to be excellent, a near masterpiece.

Better characters. There pretty much no FFXIII character that's really interesting or likeable, they're all obnoxious or boring as hell.
Nah.XV is going to be all flash and no substance, you can already see that.
And it better be damn good.Release FFXV

- Better characters.
the standard is pretty low for JRPGs to begin with. But the characters in FFXIII were terrible, do the japanese fans like Lightning and Co? do they realize how much we hate them?
SE should be aiming for AAAA quality FF titles. Not B tier quality games like Blue Dragon and The Last Story.Hire Mistwalker, Blue Dragon, The Lost Odessy and The Last Story all felt more like Final Fantasy than the recent ones. Even if there was bad blood between SQ and Sakaguchi.
After XIII, I think people have become too scared to believe this will be the case.Everything I've read about it says this is not true.
Airships, open world, cars, music by Yoko Shimomura, towns, Nomura said it will have a classic feeling which means there will be a great focus on exploration and sidequests, the game reeks of atmosphere, the story looks interesting etc etc
I could go on, but it's pretty obvious that this is a very ambitious game that does not rely on flash, come on now.
Let Nomura and Hajime Tabata accomplish their vision on FFXV and not be held back by whiners.
FFVII Crisis Core was amazing, with greater next gen horsepower, and Tabata's combat systems I expect XV to revive the crestfallen brand.
Everything I've read about it says this is not true.
"we" ? The FF13 cast was fine, for the most part. Sazh is one of the best characters they've ever made.
Everything we thought and read about XIII turned out wrong also.
Blue Dragon is one of the most complete RPGs released this past generation, when RPGs became more and more cut down until we got what we got with FF13. It hearkens back to the SNES Final Fantasies, so it probably isn't in line with what the majority of Final Fantasy fans want, but it is certainly a worthy game.SE should be aiming for AAAA quality FF titles. Not B tier quality games like Blue Dragon and The Last Story.
Such as??Everything we thought and read about XIII turned out wrong also.
The FFXIII cast doesn't change at all, they are who they are at the beginning and are who they are at the end, and rarely do they interact outside of their established archtypes regardless of what's happening around them.
To huge fans, sorta. I think the applause and joy just came from finally seeing the game in action after seven years.
Which is pure ignorance, everything from XIII is because of Toriyama and Watanabe, both who won't be involved with XV.After XIII, I think people have become too scared to believe this will be the case.
I was always more excited for Versus. XIII lacks everything that is good about Versus.Everything we thought and read about XIII turned out wrong also.

That's not true. FFXIII mostly turned out to be what Toriyama said it was. There are a few mechanics which didn't make it but were mentioned in the very earliest interviews, but most of the direction, tone, and story in the game were exactly as what he said they were.
