Disappointed in Youkai Watch

[KeluBehemoth]

Why am I the bad guy here for wanting to keep a Final Fantasy game designed around Final Fantasy fan service... about Final Fantasy?

If you want Youkai Watch... go play Youkai Watch. I shouldn't have my gaming experience tainted because "omg minions lolwutsaFFIV?"

This is a blatant cash grab (SE is clearly being paid) marketing campaign and doesn't belong here.

Really though? How long until they realize that they can start putting up posters of the Latest Dodge Journey... with a Moogle hood ornament?

I'm sorry but if you don't have a problem with this you are NOT a Final Fantasy fan.



I get all the other crap but a Fem Roe wearing nothing but a Fat Chocobo head and a Bikini is STILL less lore breaking than something like this.

To put it bluntly, you're expressing a very selfish viewpoint. You're saying that you shouldn't have to see these things for little reason other than it tarnishes your personal view of what the game should look like.

Trust me, a little bit of stuff like this won't ruin the experience for you. If I could last through bulky glow weapons, silly jiggle hats, Lightning pandering, and my favorate location in 1.0 being totally ruined, you can survive Jibanyan skipping through a field or two.

items based on the Final Fantasy universe are still fan service.

Slimes are from Dragon Quest, not Final Fantasy.

I dunno if its selfish to call this out as the shameless unrelated marketing it is. This doesn't seem that far removed from having Pizza Hut Pizza lids as shields and breadsticks as swords.

I wouldn't go so far as to say they that have no problem with it are not fans, its more SE's doing.

Isn't that true of the past crossover events as well?
Are those ok just because they're properties owned by the same company?

Other ff titles were at least in the same franchise. Stuff like dragon quest and this? I get that they are popular but is that the only criteria for lore according to the devs? Should we be expecting Luis Vuiton accesories being paraded around as FATEs next?

Well...


You know very well that it's a possibility.

That aside, FF13 may be in the same franchise, but it's style is so far removed from XIV's that it may as well be a whole different series.

I was aware of the Luis Vuiton ads, its why I said it.

You may be alright with it, I think its ridiculous and shameless advertising. And its kinda of reaching to say that ffxiii "might as well be its own series".

Like, there no "respect for the lore" here; there is only money. SE will have its silly yokai watch event and people will be flying around in amusment park ghost clouds. Justify it all you want. I'll be elsewhere.

Honestly that would be great for glamour.
Also, i'm really excited for this event, i love the game and it's just so silly and fun. Also, the weapons for the classes that i like look quite good in my opinion and i have to collect all the minions, they're adorable.

Wow...you have gone beyond arrogant. Get over yourself.
