As one stated before Nomura put a lot of customization or so into character design? Yet many of the characters are a rip off of characters from games before it or from different titles.

Back to my point, adding in a battle system such as Dissidia's many people would probably agree with mainly because of KH syndrome. But if you follow the trend of failure from the past few FF games and why the public doesn't label them as good as it's predecessors, the answer is obvious.

It's moving far away from what they enjoyed in the past games and the battle system is one of them. XIII uses ATB like some of the previous games but it was more action oriented than strategic. Not to mention controlling one character at a time? That's removing depth from the game that made it more enjoyable.


P.S. Those who say "more sequels to the series and spin-offs" just no. Final Fantasy is not meant to have spin-offs/sequels they're stand alone games. Sequels and spin-offs just milk the game they're based on and/or not needed. XIII is an exception since development stopped when it was ported.
Some of their games deserve a sequel/prequel, or just a follow up, but SE always ALWAYS!! Does it for the ones that just suck(And the sequel sucks too <.<) look at FFX-2 horrible game :/ Vagrant story never got a sequel, even the masterpiece that is FFT never actually got a sequel, just some kiddie watered version, nor did xenogears another masterpiece from square, or chrono trigger/cross, neither did seikendetsu, hell even FFXII( In my opinion one of the better FF tittles of the last decade if not the best since VI) never got a sequel and we never even fought the alquoria in the main game
