That GRIN was working on Fortress is old news; this is like a year old and it's an undisputed fact. Just because you have never heard of it doesn't all of a sudden make it a conspiracy. It is truly sad to see the lengths some of you will go to defend your sense of pride in your choice of hobby.
    We are not disputing that Grin was working on a project it called Final Fantasy : Fortress. What we are disputing is that Square Enix had any involvement in its start. From what I've been able to find, Square Enix has had no documentation about this game. And they ALWAYS announce outside developers working to publish a game in their IP's. They announced DSIII before Obsidian even started working on it.


    To Me it sounds like the following happened.

    Grin: Man we made a fortune doing that Bionic commando remake, I bet if we picked another ip and made a Game for it we could make even more.

    Grin: Spend 6 Months working on a Concept to push to SE.

    Grin: Hey Square? We've spent the last 6 months building a concept for a new Final Fantasy.

    SE: Wut? Uh ok? Fax us the concepts and we'll go from there.

    Grin: Sure... (Sends a bunch of stuff)

    SE: This doesn't resemble Final Fantasy, Sorry.

    Grin: Wait what about this. (Sends SE their own art)

    SE: Listen I don't think you understand, maybe you should just stop?

    Grin: Cry Cry Whine Whine bitch, SE didn't give us any money and now we have to close.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Their best game in the last 10 years probably, really underrated.

    FF7 -> AWESOME
    FF8 -> great
    FF9 -> epic
    FF10 -> excellent

    FF10-2 -> errr...
    FF12 -> ugh...
    FF13 -> meh...
    FF14 -> holys***wtfbbq!
    1 -> Revolutionized the RPG world
    2 -> I know a lot of people who want to forget this one
    3 -> Onion Knights fucking rock
    4 -> Kain is now the trademark Dragoon in the series
    5 -> Everybody loves Gilgamesh and it also had one of the most fun job systems
    6 -> Had one of the best villains in the series and one of the most interesting plots (though sorta weird), a bit different from the others but similar to IV
    7 -> You either love it or hate it, most people love it
    8 -> I didn't like it but ok
    9 -> My favorite one
    10 -> This one is excellent but 12 isn't? Questioning your tastes
    11 -> Very old school, very hardcore...not the best MMO at all but fun if you're into that thing
    12 -> I liked this one and almost every critic loved it...it was even named the best PS2 and RPG by many sites and magazines (including GameSpot, GameSpy, IGN, and Famitsu)
    13 -> I disliked it but that was personal preference. The story was ok but the characters made me ":I." Graphics were stunning and the new battle system was...interesting I guess. The only parts I disliked were the characters and the long hallways
    14 -> Has great potential but we've yet to see what happens.

    Don't assert your opinion as positive fact. FF is doing better now than they ever were in the past in terms of critical reviews and cash (not included: Final Fantasy XIV)

And more enjoy open world fighting much like Zelda or elder scrolls. PS <3 the spephy siggy (cloest sephy fangirl)
    Every single final fantasy before 7 had a fairly open world (or multiple worlds).

    It was a moment of happiness for me when GRIN closed. The took an awesome tactical FPS franchise: GHOST RECON and drug it through the mud with GR:AW.
    I played the crap out of GR when redstorm headed up the project, but when UBI gave it to GRIN..... It wasn't ghost recon.

    Not Really.

    All the Worlds before FF7 had limitations on what you could explore before you hit certain parts of the storyline. IE its a Long Hallway.

    Duh it had limitations, but you could go wherever you wanted before that and ignore the story completely and explore. At least for I, II, III, and V.

    Learning something new every day! And this should be a sticky on the main page, haha.

    Because a professional game developer would do free work just for an initial pitch. They had a contract with SE and Yoichi Wada was involved right from the beginning. In fact, the game is still going to come out it has just changed developers, probably to Eidos Montreal. For someone taking a position to dispute something you're very short on facts.
