Ironically, I have the opposite complaint about FF7, I think it's let down by Jenova not being more of an overarching force. She's way more interesting than Sephiroth, and I preferred when I thought that he was basically her meat puppet over the course of FF7 rather than him controlling her.

I do think it's kinda inevitable that Jenova will be the endpoint of the Ultima storyline, because they'd be fools to not make her the mystery alien entity. (Also, we're not passing up Soken doing a version of J-E-N-O-V-A, he is MADE to knock that one out of the park.) But I both hope she won't be behind everything, and expect she won't be; now that we're disentangled from the Ascians, we can get some stories of people on a more human scale, independent of shadowy machinations, and I kinda feel like the developers have the common sense to give us an expansion of independence from anything like that before building up another.
