    Exactly, the PHS in FFVII was taken wholesale from real life, it is a real-world mobile phone/cellular service that formerly was popular in Japan and is still found in some Asian countries to this day. The branded phones in the Compilation only extended from that.

    And besides, before you pass judgement even the linkshells here in FFXIV are effectively mobile phones in all but physical form (they give a phone like tone when someone is calling on them in cutscenes, and Cid even explained at one point that they use electromagnetic waves to function: i.e. radio. Which is how phones transmit information at their core.).

    So real world concepts definitely do fit in the FF series (lets not also forget that the very first FF game featured a mechanical robot, a submarine/scuba diving, a holographic video display and a flying castle/airship too in an otherwise Tolkien-esque fantasy world of knights, castles, elves and magic, but that's another story...).

    Fun fact, I downloaded the old Fankit sound package, and actually do have the FFXIV Linkshell Alert set as my ringtone.

    I'm sure I'm far from the only one.

    So trying to say it a spin-off of a spin-off? Considering KH is a mixture of FF and Disney to begin with.

    It's sad what the single player FF titles have become. 98% linear/completely on rails with no sense of adventure or freedom to play around. Just follow our boring rehashed story of war and betrayal from start to finish then throw the game away as there is no reason to ever look at it again let alone play through it again.

    I considered pre-ordering ff15.... but the whole 'Bro-roadtrip' aspect has been so heavily pushed that its just turned me off the game entirely.

    When the main marketing things I have seen for a game are a bunch of 'cool looking bros' and a raunchy reimagined cid.

    I haven't been able to discern a relatable or inspiring or interesting story behind all that testosterone leaking out.

    I also hate live action battle. I really enjoyed atb-style rpgs, which is why the ff series suited me really well. They took a key element out of the franchise.

    I'm quite hyped about FFXV. Final Fantasy XV: Brotherhood was amazing and made me enjoy the characters that I absolutely hated from the trailers. Kingsglaive was superb and laid down a starting foundation. Platinum Demo was really fun and I enjoyed the action, hack and slash inspired combat.

    For those saying they don't like the fact there's no turn based combat; you've not been keeping up with the news. The game has in-battle "pausing" that allows you to set up moves. This was done to allow players to be able to breathe and still play the game, even if they are inept with action-style games. It's essentially a time-limited turn based gauge.

    All I hope for is Lunafreya glamour for females in the event and Noctis for males. Please PLEASE SE do not make this cash shop exclusive. You have the opportunity to get players even more familiar with XV after they play it with an event in xiv.
