I have to agree with this. Anyone who thinks the stories of video games have even come close to many works of literature or film hasn't branched out nearly enough. The stories themselves are competent, with FFVI hitting some mature themes and dark areas, FFXIII's flawed and distressed characters, and FFXII aiming for political intrigue, duty, etc., but all these stories aren't that far removed from young adult anime or manga.

That doesn't detract from them by far, and I still enjoy their stories, but they are what they are and there can be no denying that.
