I agree wholeheartedly. Besides, this is exactly what Hironobu Sakaguchi said in a recent interview. It's like people expect the same thing with a revamped story line and different characters! And I learned the Final Fantasy bible doesn't exist from an interview the FFX-2 and FFXII teams did for Gamespy a while back. I shoved that link in everyone's faces that didn't believe me. When people say they don't like FFX-2, they; 1) Don't have an open mind to change in a Final Fantasy (What about FFV(or IV?)that also had a female lead pre se) 2) They haven't fully explored the game enough (There's a reason you can't get 100% on the first try, theres another game like this, it's called Chrono Trigger). 3) Dub is decent! If you want japanese diaolog with english subs, get Last Mission. 4) J-Pop rules sometimes(I said sometimes) 5) Yuna isn't good enough for you Same applies to FFXI; 1) Your cheap bastards (doesn't apply unless you give a valid explination "You have to pay for it," "It's too expensive" and "Well, it just sucks" don't apply. Play it for 2 weeks.) 2) It's a change 3) See 1 4) Battle system is "crap" (It's a great system, better then EQ and SWG) 5) See 1 6) It HAS a story (EQ's is slow and messed up and SWG, well, where can I find the bounty hunter?) 7) See 1 Cheaper on PC 9) See 1 10) Re-read 4, 6, 8 and 1 again. Sometimes the single player experience can get dull. That's why I play MMORPGs and PSO (which still r0x0rz). We're not all rich like you be'otch
