FFXIII-2 first week sales roughly a third of FFXIII's first week sales

Dec 26th 2011 8:19PM (Joystiq)
I blame it on FF13. it was a terrible, horrible game. It shouldn't have even had the FF title. I know that personaly I won't buy another FF title untill they expand on the immensly awesome game play style of FF12. I just can't bring myself to shell out 60 bucks for another turd.. I love the FF series. I've played all of them. I grew up with them from the release of the very first one all the way to 13 there have been some that I didn't like but 13 was just too much to bear. It tarnished the brand for me to the point where I'm not gonna buy another one. 12 really took the series in a much better direction. random battles and loading to get to the battle is something for 8 bit NES systems... turn based combat is as well. I'm not going back to that. not gonna spend good money on it anymore. Battle should be instantanious and the characters just do what they do. If i want turn based i'll play Persona 4. It's far better for that type of play.

you don't have any of my weapons... but I would like that sweet quiver for my arrows if it actually holds arrows.. i'd just give the game away. if the quiver doesn't actually hold anything then don't worry about it.

How to fix Final Fantasy

I guess I'll contribute something to the author though.

The battle system needs to be fixed. Combine FF12's free roaming realtime battle and gambit system with FF13's Class switching system. and let players move around during battle. Throw in a small macro system for most used spells and abilities similar to FF11. Make the monsters more interesting to fight than just mashing the X button untill the credits roll. Area of Effect and mosters that are only weak from certain sides, and make debuffing usefull.

Drop leveling altogether and instead have items and equiptment that level up (to lvl99 of course). changing apperance and skills as they go.

Combine that with a pokemon type system for collecting and leveling up espers.

Bring back the Hunt system from FF12 and have that constantly updated via DLC packs.

Bring back the Collectable card game from FF9.

Bring back incrimental leveling up of weapons, and shields, dodge and parry and spellcasting. like in FF2 and FF11.


Make the story better. and offer extended stories and adventures though DLC.

Don't ever make a closed world pipe game like FF13 again. OPEN WORLD!!

I've bought and played every FF from begining to end since it came out on NES. Even alot of the spin offs. I Have always been a long time fan. After the atrocity that was 13 and 14 I wish they would just stop making them. it's sad but they just don't know what they are doing anymore.

Damn! Why is she wasting her talents on Cos-Play? She could be making a living doing C+ grade internet porn.

So this game basically gets you drunk... buys you a transvestite hooker, drains all your money at a blackjack table, and then leaves you with a bad hangover and dried coke boogers?

thanks but i'll pass.
