wow, great post, doom. ffxii is such an awful game - it's right down there with vagrant story, as the worst square game of all time.Doom_Bringer said:I can't ****ing wait for Final Fantasy XIII. God the last time I played an AWESOME Final Fantasy was during Fifa World Cup 2002, when Korea was playing against Italy (I got the game that day). Final Fantasy X team is awesome!! They make addictive FF's

nope, it starts with a xeno and ends with a gears. or ffviii. or x-2.Tobor said:Just out of curiosity, and assuming you're not being sarcastic, what in your opinion is the best Square game ever?
I'm going to take a guess: starts with an FF, and ends with a VII, right?

Xenogears = best damn RPG on PSone right in front of FF9.

Avalon said:Nothing wrong with too much story. It's just the fact that they have to spoon feed every single aspect of it to the player... Shit like Xenogears/saga, FFX, it all needs to die.

Ponn01 said:Spoon feed? Maybe people were pretty slow on the uptake but just about every major plot in the storyline could have been figured out by the reveal. Generally every RPG reveals the plot to you though because thats how its freaking done. Hell I still remember figuring on the whole soylent green side story with xenogears which they never even revealed in total.
Eteric Rice said:Or you could do the whole Metroid Prime thing.
Sort of...
Avalon said:Oh please, they tell you they.eat people
Cutscenes are not the only way a story can be told. You have a town, fill it with NPCs and have the player roam around and actually experience what the story is.

Ponn01 said:They never said it. You implied it.
Like I said, play some generic RPG's then. There was still alot of that, hell the whole first hour of the game is that alone. There was still a shitload of story that needed to be told though and people are ignoring one half of the game and concentating on the other half with fei and his whole pyschological shit which could really only be done the way it was done.

Manmademan said:uh, the second disc wasnt just "fei's psychological problems"
BIG battles and a couple of dungeon exploration segments were literally just told to you in a "this happened and this happened and this happened" fashion with a screen of scrolling text while fei sits in a chair, interspersed with a couple of gear battles.
it was most certainly NOT "the only way it could have been done."
It's just the fact that they have to spoon feed every single aspect of it to the player
However, even when you are doing heavy cutscenes it's important to keep the player involved in some way. Xenogears had a lot of scenes that were a lot subtle messages and things that the player needed to think about Such as the thing involvingthe children from the orphanage and the Priest.
Ponn01 said:Which is it?
Ponn01 said:Didn't say it was just that. Don't start putting words in my mouth
For the time and platform and the huge story that encompassed the game it was done well. I would love to start hearing some of these much better ways that people keep bringing up. Past the whole "walk around town and talk to people" thing and a Metroid FPS refrence (seriously WTF?!)
Wait, what the hell!! You go from this
to this
Which is it?

Well, the Xbox360 isn't more powerful than the PS3. It's the other way aroundC- Warrior said:... that the 360 isn't really a 'lesser powerful' machine.
