GRIN says SE sucks..

[Jinko]

so...

Where are all the FF Killer? IF SE sucks so much, where are all the ultra awesome companies who make so much better RPG for the consoles?

Mistwalker / Sakaguchi produces better games than SE, if he had the resources and budget SE have his games would be so awesome it would make your head spin.

I would actually say something like the Tales of series is better than most Final Fantasy games these days.

Altus produce better games than SE also, SE just bring lots of flash and bang with some shiny these days and that's about all.

The only games that sell massively for SE are Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, without those two franchises they would be less than average.

Motoi Sakuraba. Nuff said.

Going by his current track record excluding The Last Story which I haven't played yet, I think it's safe to assume that Sakaguchi leaving SE was probably the best thing to happen to Final Fantasy.

He had a big budget, he made Spirits Within which while not terrible, it could hardly be called a Final Fantasy and couldn't pull in the big bucks. Considering that some of what made it into Spirits Within was part of his original plan for FFVII, I think we dodged a massive bullet.

People say Lost Odyssey's story is great. He didn't actually have anything to do with any of the novellas, arguably the best parts of an otherwise very bland story, which were written by Kiyoshi Shigematsu, or the music, which as we all know was done by Uematsu.

If I could get another big budget FF title with a battle system similar to Lost Odyssey (traditional turn based with a unique spin), a real overworld, and an actual vehicle to travel around said overworld near the end of the game...i'd be just fine.

you can say that about every company if you remove their flagship products.
