They know what they're doing.(I Hope)
All of the people who Dislike FF will probably pick this up.
That's the way it seems anyway

yeah, all those people who love JRPGs but hate Final Fantasy. wow! watch those sales figures! might make it into double digits on that basis... :)

looks like an interesting game so hopefully it will sell okay - does sort of seem like two or three weeks after would've been better than one, though.

Dear Joystiq,
I think one way to improve the comment system (and to hopefully attract more viewers) would be to allow commentors the option to remove their own comments so reply fails like these will become a thing of the past (such as the Segway). But that's just me.

I like JRPGs if they're good, therefore I will be getting this instead of FFXIII.

I think there should be a United Nations type of arrangement between all the top developers so that no 2 hot games are released at the same time.

Nah just kidding I doubt GOW3 sales will effect this game that much, different target audience.

Although saying that I am semi interested in this game but may wait a little bit since I am definitely buying GOW3.. lol

You worry too much
You make yourself sad
You can't change fate
But don't feel so bad

Enjoy it while you can
It's just like the weather
So quit complainin', brother
No one lives forever!

I played the Japanese demo and the mechanics were very repetitive and boring to me. Sure, FFXIII is probably going to be pretty repetitive after a while too, but at least it has production values and a ridiculous pedigree on its side. I'd like play Resonance of Fate later on, but I will absolutely not take time away from an initial or even second run-through of FFXIII.

two good games out of 12 is not a good average and even people who (for some reason) like most FFs have said XIII isn't that great.

so yup

2 good games? 2 (4 JP), 3 (6 JP), 7, 8, 9, 10. These are all amazing. And that's a general consensus.

the general consensus is that FF in general is good (it's not)

the good ones are IV and VI. nothing else is good. nothing. 8 and 10 are also probably the worst ones, they are so hilariously awful they surpass Badgame and reach GameCrime.

I consider Cowboy Bebop to be the best anime ever made and the shining example of what can be done with the medium but now I'm reconsidering that as I refuse to believe I could share the same opinion about anything with you

I respect your opinion of the series. Though I am simply making observation and conversation. Which apparently neither of you are capable of handling.

Just to troll a troll.

If perception is reality and the majority of people perceive that a game series is good, then how can the game series actually be bad if only one person perceives it so? Therefore, I posit to you that you are factually incorrect due to reality disagreeing with you based on philosophy.
It follows that you must correct your perception of reality or be destroyed by natural selection, make your peace with whatever you hold dear, for I can guess which you will choose.

That is not what that term means (its more of a philosophical view for the individual than a fact for all), but I guess you googled "super deep quotes man" to find something with which to build a flimsy argument. Good job man don't worry here's some copy-pasted Nietzsche as a rebuttal and I bet it'll still probably have at least some vague correlation to this argument about how Final Fantasy Really Sucks Despite What Idiots Say

Apart from the value of such assertions as "there is a categorical
imperative in us," one can always ask: What does such an assertion
indicate about him who makes it? There are systems of morals which are
meant to justify their author in the eyes of other people; other systems
of morals are meant to tranquilize him, and make him self-satisfied;
with other systems he wants to crucify and humble himself, with others
he wishes to take revenge, with others to conceal himself, with others
to glorify himself and gave superiority and distinction,--this system of
morals helps its author to forget, that system makes him, or something
of him, forgotten, many a moralist would like to exercise power and
creative arbitrariness over mankind, many another, perhaps, Kant
especially, gives us to understand by his morals that "what is estimable
in me, is that I know how to obey--and with you it SHALL not be
otherwise than with me!" In short, systems of morals are only a
SIGN-LANGUAGE OF THE EMOTIONS.

Actually sir, the dictionary disagrees with you on the word perception.

"immediate or intuitive recognition or appreciation, as of ... aesthetic qualities..."

Secondly let's drop the trolling business and look at the argument. You yourself admit that the general public agrees that the final fantasy series is good, however, you disagree and claim that only two are good and that the rest are approaching the worst thing to happen to gaming with no argument other than "everyone's wrong but me".

I'm just curious to see whether you've got an actual reason for disliking the series or if it's just because it's now popular to hate anything that's not western-developed.

He used the word right. Here is another definition:

perception - percept: the representation of what is perceived; basic component in the formation of a concept
perception - a way of conceiving something; "Luther had a new perception of the Bible"

Were you aware that words have several meanings? Regardless, you suck at this philosophical shit.

I got this pre order didnt bother with the jp version only with FFXIII jp cause i know it pretty darn well and story was great thanks for a translation guide on FFXIII forums and i all gotta say is the story on FFXIII is very interesting and the only good thing about FFXIII is story and graphics and charecters but most of your time will be killing same mobs over and over gotta farm CP and material so thats ur most of ur game play fun there. i hope this is diffirent look forward to a gun JRPG!!
