i didnt bother to click the link but from what ive seen in the trailers and pics of FF12, it looks like its gonna be another mediocre game. and can they please make a main character that doesnt look like a goddamn girl? jeez, the past 3 games had main characters that looked like girls. Zidane looked like a girl, Tidus is just the most annoying bitch ever, and now we got Vaan that looks like tidus and zidane mixed together. whatever happened to the badass characters like Cloud and Squall?

Cloud and Squall look effeminate themselves:rolleyes: Anyways, the battle system's new as usual. That's something to look forward to. I think it'll be awesome.

I don't think Squall is manly looking. He was modeled after Gackt, a Japaneese crossdressing singer.

Vaan = Ashley(from Vagrant Story)

Ashley = effeminate but still macho looking

Therefore, Vaan = effeminate but still macho looking


Just wait for the game to come out(or look up some clips). And it's the girls that matter more;)

You have a point, but I don't think the fact that the main character looks like a girl will bring down the game...I mean, you have to realize that this is Squares most popular franchise, and they won't mess with it. They will deliver a quality game. I know it.

With that being said, I don't like how they are whoring out the series with all the FF 7 and X spinoffs.

yeah i know, wtf were they thinking when they released FFX-2, give me a break. square does not make FF's the way they used to, its obvious. its all about flash value now. they need to release another FF with a badass knight as the main character. ff12 does look good, but im tired of seeing them make pansy looking main characters. ive said it once before, even though the storyline would be different, i wouldve been much more happy if Auron was the main character in FFX. the last awesome FF that came out was 8, and 9 was pretty good. my favorite was FF3/6, thats one of those games that are just amazing, and there was like 12 characters(with about 5 or 6 being main characters) and most of them had pretty elaborate backstories. thats just my opinion on it.

so far though, the story behind FF12 seems like its gonna be a winner. war as the main subject and tons of airship stuff is sure to kick some ***. but the battle system is the thing that is worrying me. i dont like the idea of it.

I'd be seriously disappointing if they **** on the voice acting like they did with FFX. I mean, it was great for the most part, and even more impressive for a Japanese game, but seriously Tiduses voice sucks as does Yunas (the rest of the voices fit the cast perfectly).

If they have Vaan have a little deeper voice, that would be great.

To be totalyl honest with you though, I did like the story of FF 10, it was pretty cool, and I think one of the best storylines out there in gaming and in the Final Fantasy series. But don't hold me up to it since I've only played from 7-10 (excluding online).

And you're right, the story line is a bit more serious this time. I heard its a love story, which is fine by me. I like love stories (when done right, not any love story).

EDIT: The battle system worried me at first, but I remember that I played Final Fantasy for its sweeping storylines (sometimes tear inducing, you have to give Square credit for FF10 and 7) and epic tales. It shoudl bother me too much.

But I agree its something totally different for the series. We'll have to see how that works out.

yeah there was definately some parts in FFX where the voice acting sucked. I think I mention this before, but the part when they purposely laugh, was so dumb. I was like "they didnt just do that, did they?" Tidus was extremely whiny and sounded like a 12 year old hitting puberty, and Yuna sounded way too over passionate whenever she talked. Auron had an awesome voice and Wakka always made me laugh.

And Yuna...her voice is just so weak. I realize that was the direction they intended...but Yuna's voice is really just bad. It had potential. The voicing acting during the traditional FMV cut scenes seemed to improve though.

Wakka always reminds me of a white Barret.

haha, Barret always reminded me of Carl Winslow form Family Matters. Just imagine FF7 with Barret's voice as him. by the way, if you can find it, get the FF collection with FF3/6 in it. It's either Anthology or Chronicles, but one of them has that on it, its great. The only problem is thers load times and coming from a system that had no loading times at all(SNES) it was quite annoying, but there was FMV's. :thumb:

Will do, will do. Its on the Psone, right?

An btw, i heard that some of the earlier FF games have no stories (i mean, they have stories, but its not an emphases like lately, and I just love a good VG story!).

dont worry, FF3/6 was a huge breakthrough in the storyline department in my opinion. FF2 for the united states was so dumbed down compared to the japanese version. but FF3 was the complete original storyline, I beleive it was the first time a FF story was ever tamper-free with in the translation and localization process. Its a very long game if you choose to seek out everything, and there are some very badass characters in the game. Look for Edgar, Setzer, Shadow, Sabin, and Cyan. These guys are so awesome in the game. Not to mention get ready to experience probably the best music in any FF game(if you can stand it, it still sounds pretty good for the SNES). :thumb: al ot of the music from the game is famous. :thumb:

I always named Barrett Mr. T.

The video didn't work for me, but it's reminded me how long it's been since a new Final Fantasy, and how excited that is. (XI and X-2 don't count.)

Which is one of the main reasons im not bothering with it. plus, i hate MMORPG's. i'd rather have a good single player rpg with an incredible storyline that has an ending, not one where its open ended and stupid people are like "LOLZ I LOK YER SWORD, ASL?!!!!!"

Err, it was released like 8 months ago. And I'm 99% sure you still have to pay monthly to play. I would see no reason why they wouldn't have a monthly fee on PS2 and have one on the computer :confused:. It's a fun game, but it got old to me after like 4 months or so. Way too much of a timesink in that game.

The first time I played 3/6, I was so engulfed in the storyline. My only complaint was that through translation, some of the dialogue was flawed.

Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing XII. I still have to beat X though. :-/

Yeah, there are some parts in the game will have some text that will make you go " :amaze: " but there so few and far between that it doesnt affect the game at all. im glad someone else shares the same view on the story as i did. :thumb:

The most notable one for me was, "He could be my friend, if he weren't my enemy". I was just like wtf? :amaze:.

Magitek Armor does pwn though. I just wish you had more chances to use it.

you know what, I never noticed that one, I remember that quote, Cyan said it didn't he? I always thought it was just a cool saying, but now I see the bad grammar. :thumb:

Yeah, that beginning scene with them walking through the snow, and the music is playing, man, and the credits rolling, so good.

I think Square's best game as far as storyline goes is Xenogears. That game was great.
