XIII-2 is not a spin-off--it's a sequel.
Same with X-2.

Regardless, I agree. People need to simmer down.

Just to add: X-2 also sold less than X, and as far as I know, X was a well received game.

And sequels are considered spin offs, at least in my book. You know, FFIV After Years, VII compilation, revenant wings, x-2, etc...

EDIT: In fact, all FF sequels sold less than the main game.

Through countless different ways to state the same thing, fans have come up with no other approach but to hide the true meaning behind their opinions in the most creative of ways.

Everything they have and will ever say can be summed up in one word: nostalgy. Sometimes with added flavor of "b'awww" and "in my day".

"Hey a new Final Fantasy game!"

"...Why isn't this Final Fantasy VII!?"

*trash*

Or, ITT Nostalgia all up ins.

It's not a spin off, it's a sequel to a main entry of the series.

No worries, guys. Final Fantasy Versus XIII is going to save the series.

Jesus Christ himself couldn't save Final Fantasy.

That's what the internet tells me.

A bunch of cynical misanthropes can't possibly be wrong, CAN THEY!?
