People actually complained about FFXII being too open?

Yup.

That, and the story being too complex or something along those lines.

You sure? FFXII's story wasn't complex; FFVII and FFVIII's story was more complex than FFXII's. The open map was a plus, my only complaints were the inability to swap Espers, after one person unlocked it, the lack of real character development, and the fact that Vaan was so annoying, that I couldn't permanently swap him out, he was always back, while in a town.

Positive. God knows how they figured it was complicated though. If anyone thinks XII was complicated, I dare them to play Chrono Cross or the Xenosaga series.

Or actually try to figure out how Silent Hill works, instead of just rushing through the game with no thought. There's a ***ton of ideas about it.

So did I. But it required much more thought than XII ever did.

Best SE game I've ever played. The plot is mind boggling, most complicated in any game I've ever played.

xenogears? xenogears was a whole bunch of cutscenes pasted together and 5-10 minutes of gameplay every 1-2 hours. ff13 is a good game. ff versus 13 is going to be crazzzzy.

I still love FFIX, or as we used to call it back in the day... The Icks.

No, XenoSAGA was the one crammed with cutscenes.

Because it can't possibly be different people saying those things.

Open world = win, so I'm looking forward to Vs XIII pretty hard. And I liked XII a HELL of a lot more than X, and I doubt I'll ever touch XIII. Well...for 20$ I might, but I'm not expecting anything great.

Both XII and XIII were terrible.

IV - X were the finest in the series.

I and II were good, but lacking due to limitations, III was meh.

This, Xenogears was a masterpiece. Totally recommend everyone to try it. Emulator and iso torrents aren't hard to find.

Xenogears was a masterpiece on the first disc...then they realized they spent all the budget money on hookers and booze and had to cram the rest of the game on the second disc lol

I liked XII and XIII :x
Only problem with XIII is the huge lack of replay value. It's still fun as hell the first go around.

XII was just a tad too easy once you got enough gambits.

I just want *** Limit Breaks/Overdrives back. Nothing like getting your *** beat then just unleashing it all back on a boss.

XII was too much like an MMO imo. I don't mind grinding in an FF, but ***was stupid. (I mean to go back to it, to see if I can get back into it though) Also the characters bar Balthier sucked ***.

XIII was fun, but the leader dying game over thing is a huge fail.

Plus I actually enjoy sidequests.

They would've had to make it so you can control all characters then. If that were the case, then we'd be able to use all Eidolons on all 3 current characters, potentially owning everything (not like Grand Summoning on Yuna in X is any different =/ lol).

And the fact that spells were used to stagger, rather than having a Magic damage person. I do like how fast-paced it is. I still think X-2 had the best battle system. Just give me Overdrives and I'd be set.

That's all well and good, but they should have designed the battle system around greater control over characters.

I liked how the mage worked in XIII though.

I agree with everything in this post, though I would take 10 off the "finest" part.
