Reasons why final fantasy 12 sux(although i only played for like 8 hrs only)...?

Question

personally i played 7 and 8 and found 12 to be too hyped and not as satisfactory... a few reasons...

1)They change it to everything 3D,its gets a bit of a headache walking around and it loss its cuteness of the 2D design, and i dont feel like exploring at all because of this...

2)Cant relate to the characters.for example, in 7 i felt the loss when aeris died and i go through the emotional and physical pain cloud went through during the game.Same too for squall and rinoa, i feel their relationship develop.While i dont give a damm if vaan and penelo had died...

3)they change the battle system, and seriously it kinda sux.I know there has to be change but still it sux...

4)I dont get the architecture of the buildings in ff12, its just too plain wierd.I mean, its supposed to be like an ancient city and there are AIRSHIPS flying around???

5)the music wasnt by nobuo neumatsu this time and ya...so it sux...

6)The story isnt just as good as 7 and 8 which has deep meaning

Answer 1

I'm glad at least one person agrees with me on this. I figured it sucked just by my first glance of the character designs.

1) All the characters look the same, like they belong to the same family. No real diversity other than the rabbit girl. Thats boring. FF6 was very diverse.

2) The guy presented as the main character doesn't appeal to half of the original Final Fantasy fans sense we like characters that we can relate to and is believable of being a hero, not a guy who you can't even tell is a guy. Not to mention his teen girl tanktop with showing nipples. What ever happened to characters like Cloud, or Locke?

3) The main girl is another version of Garnet from FF9 and Rinoa from FF8, and Tifa from FF7. All have black hair and the same basic presence. What ever happened to female characters like Terra and Celes from FF6?

4) The music is weak. If the music is weak, it's not Final Fantasy.

5) It's cool to change the fighting system, but not at the expense of what is cool. Now the fighting is boring trash, no cool dramatic camera shots to add to the thrill of battle. Now it's just like any other hack and slash game. Thats Boring.

Final Fantasy 6 is still number one to me with all there unique characters, great music, and very deep story. FF 10 was pretty good. The end sucked because of it's quickly written story twist but still one of the best FF's. FF7 was great. Didn't like FF8 at all, in fact FF12's mediocre-ness reminds me of that game.

Answer 2

I happen to think it's a great game, but opinions are like @ssholes, everybody's got one.
