I dont care what people say about Final fantasy 13 and Dirge of Cerburus. I love those 2 games to death. D.O.C was a really good way to fill some blanks for the FF7 story, and Final fantasy 13 part 1 was the hardest from all the lightning games which was a true challenge and that made me love the game. Also the storyline felt true to its core and managed to let the player make a connection to all characters not just 1 or 2.The other two games (part 2 and lightning returns) Felt Easy while still great but easy. Lightning is my bae :3

+Chris Atlas Jimenez I am opposed in principle to some action shooter game adding story to a Final Fantasy game.
@RISSITECH8 жыл бұрын
+Chris Atlas Jimenez in my opinion, FFXIII lacks some things that made its predecessors some really very enjoyable games.... And yeah, in FFXIII it was really a pain in the ass to have all the greatest weapons and to finish all its "sidequests" because of that. There's almost no way to get easy money or any kind of hidden tricks so that you can quickly upgrade, the only way are some foes that you don't encounter anymore after you beat the game, if you beat the game without taking advantage of that enemy the rest of the possibilities takes just too much time and gets too much repetitive, if not frustrating. For me all other FFs that I played before was better in almost every aspect, FFXIII for me was great at graphics, but not soo great at the story as it should be, and instead of FFXIII-2 (that made some improvements) square could just make some Chrono series game, that is stuck on Chrono Cross (PS1), at least it's what FFXIII-2 fells like, a Chrono series game with a really messed up story, with just two playable characters with almost zero charisma, and a really really bad end, some Chrono game maybe could be better. Hope Square could be more like it was before changing to Square-Enix.

Not going to judge since I can see how people would like FFXIII, but the problem for me is some of the choices made in the game's creation. Whether if it is the long hallway, simplistic combat system, meaningless rating system, confusing as all hell weapon progression, and... that train wreck of story... I'm sorry, but as soon as I beat the game, I had to trade it back in since it was almost like it was mocking me for trying to finish the game towards the end.

chris batchelder I agree 12 had a meh combat system (personally i love that change from turnbased) but if you can get past it that game is a masterpiece truely. The story is amazing and it stays true to the ways of FF. Even the combat system for being so different is pretty perfect. All of the bosses can be extremely challenging and even if youre higher leveled and geared out right those strong bosses are still really strong. The final boss fight is grueling and lackluster but its a great great story. Personally FF12 and FFDD are my 2 all time favorite FF games because of how perfect the stories are.

The hate on FFXIII for linear gameplay is tragically hilarious. FFX was just as linear if not more so since random encounters were scaled back and the end game becomes so painfully apparent of what you should be doing that the creators even give you Auto-Life for the final battle. If that's not hand holding, then I don't know what is. Why does no one ever bring up FFXII and it's horribly crippled storyline, unimaginative characters and side quests that were so immersive it took away from the storyline and you'd just get lost going from Hunt to Hunt? How about that miserable boss fight at the end? The useless helpers? The miserable bootleg summons? Even if there's enough people to defend FFXII...I dare you to defend FFXII-2: Revanent Wings...THAT was the worst game with Final Fantasy ever attached to it.

I rather enjoyed FFXII and it's universe. The summons didn't bother me at all because they were trying to build a new pantheon associated with Ivalice. The story didn't feel crippled to me at all because the story was very straight forward and more time was focused on the journey than plot development. FFXII had my favorite combat system and I almost never got bored of grinding and exploring. Bosses were challenging if you didn't use a certain spell that reversed damage and you had free reign to craft archetypes onto any of your PCs. Also: Japanese Starwars.

And they also cannot wrap their heads around why Squall is the way he is, which annoys me to no end! The game makes it a point to explain that, in flashbacks to his childhood.

@linkno110 жыл бұрын
It wasn't 'that good' either. It was the most linear FF game by far, the combat was mostly "mash X" until you got to the last few bosses where you suddenly needed to use paradigm shifts to win, the story wasn't great, the characters are pretty bland and the players unput into combat and leveling was pretty minimal. It ditches most of the stuff you expect to find in a direct FF sequel. It would have probably been better received if it wasn't a numbered sequel and was just an FF spinoff, or even a different title entirely but compared to other games, it was just bad. You could also say the same about XI and XIV being too different from other numbered sequels but, I've always thought they should have been named Final Fantasy Online rather than a direct numbered sequel. At least they are good though.
@youngsexynerd110 жыл бұрын
linkno1 I hate the argument of "it was just mash X the whole game" Ummmm news flash, almost every Final Fantasy is like that, and almost EVERY FF was just as linear, only disguised it better! In FF13 all you had to do was to go to the option menu and change the default battle command to set it on abilities instead of auto battle... then BAM, simple as that! But all the other stuff I can agree with, but it still was not a bad game, just different, I would compare it to FF8. And I would score it a 8 out of 10!
@linkno110 жыл бұрын
youngsexynerd1 Even if you disabled auto attack, every battle option was under abilities and it was just as effective to use the first option in abilities (which was either 'attack' or 'ruin') for 95% of the game meaning you could still mash 'X' and see the end of it. I also wouldn't say it's as linear as the other FF games at all. I can't even think of what other FF game to compare it to because non of them have you crawling down a corridor for 20 hours. Hid it better? Sure they did, through overall better game design.

Alright. The bashing on Final Fantasy XIII should really stop... Yes, I know it was very hyped up and tons of people were disappointed that it wasn't the end-all game that mankind had always dreamed of. Nothing will ever be that great. But this reviewer and many others have no idea what they were talking about when it comes to the story and its characters. Yes, the linearity is a bit absurd, but guess what! It makes perfect sense with the story and the fact that the game becomes huge when they travel to Gran Pulse is almost a beautiful artistic statement. Now, the characters... If people would just look past Vanille's voice (even though I've heard WAY worse), she has the potential to be one of the emotionally deepest characters in the entirety of Final Fantasy. So shut up about her and the rest of the characters! I don't hear ANYONE complaining about how awfully dull and predictable Cloud Strife and Sephiroth were. Focus your frustrations about characterization on something else because Vanille (and Snow. Seriously, reviewer?) doesn't deserve it. Far from it. Honestly, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy VI, and Final Fantasy XIII are my favorites, but that's only because I can actually appreciate deep storylines with deeply affected characters. People let too many things come between them and a good game and Final Fantasy XIII is the best example that I can think of. Sorry that everybody got butt-hurt that it wasn't as mind-blowing as they wanted it to be, but oh well. It's still a great game. I'd bet, oh how I'd bet, if Square Enix ever did publish a Final Fantasy VII HD Remake, everybody would be disappointed and it would be the worst game EVERRRRR. ...And if they didn't change the story, character development, and script of the original to the remake, the public would actually be right for once!

***** Whether or not you believe that *Gran Pulse is large and beautiful, doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things since the story line still demands a certain amount of linearity for realism and cohesive storytelling. Yes, this turned a lot of people away from the game. But linearity does not make a bad game. In fact, it's usually the strictly linear games that end up having the best stories and characters as they're developed in a way as if you are reading a book and books are never open-world. Not enough people have the attention span nowadays to enjoy a good story and that is how Final Fantasy XIII came under so much fire. Maybe today's society can't deal with games like that, but that may be because today's society can't deal with reading books either because it's just too hard to keep their attention on any one thing for a set period of time. They need "mini-games" consistently because they just can't handle themselves, which is truly pathetic.

***** The story was explained as perfectly as it needed to be. It was built to make you think. It didn't need any more narration than it had. The datalog was only there to help and provide deeper insight on the mythology working behind the scenes in the game. But yes, some games do want you to read a little bit. Is that really so hard? If you really enjoyed reading as much as you say that you do, I wouldn't think it would be so difficult to take a little time to read up on some vocabulary if you didn't understand it. Especially if you actually wanted to make the tiniest effort to enjoy the game. Honestly, the two sequels actually are crap and were only created to milk the mythology out of the story, but XIII alone was a stand-alone and fantastically moving story with twists and turns every which way. People just fail to understand it. Kind of like how some people manage to fail to understand the Leonardo DiCaprio film, Inception. Weak example, I know, but lots of people hate it because they don't understand it. By the way, great counter. "Downright stupid," huh? I dare you to build a story half as great.

I'm sorry, but calling Final Fantasy XIII a "bad game" is just dishonest. Is it flawed? Absolutely! The story was weak, the narrative relies on the player to read the datalog to know what's going on, and some characters made the characters in Transformers 2 tolerable in comparison, so I'm not going to say it's one of the best FF games. But the linearity wasn't THAT restrictive, the combat (while limiting to only 1 character at a time) was exhilarating with the paradigm shifts, and the soundtrack and cinematics were GORGEOUS! I mean, for fuck's sake, they gave the game an 8.6 when it was released. And they call it a "bad game?" I don't think so…

The biggest flaw I saw with FFXIII was that as soon as the world opened up, the story dwindled to practically nothing for everyone except Fang and Vanille. This is clear from the fact that in the little story summary available in XIII-2, of the 13 chapters, 10 of them take place during the first half of the game. I've heard that this is due to the fact that the focus was shifted late in production to focus on Lightning rather than Vanille and Fang, which would make a lot of sense. As it is, I found the characters' stories gripping for as long as they lasted, but they became so bland as each of their arcs were tied up. That being said, I loved the characters of XIII and loved pretty much everything about XIII-2. I look forward to eventually getting Lightning's Return,despite the poor reviews. Even with all the flaws in various games, SquareEnix has always managed to make me care about the characters.

***** I mean if you used Auto-Battle sure. But if you start using abilities, it makes it feel more natural. Not a lot different than spamming Attack in previous FF's honestly. I'm a fan of every FF though. I like that they can change some features of it. ATB is fun sure, but it gets boring being in all of them. ADB wasn't the best, but I appreciate they tried that with XIII. I actually wouldn't mind seeing something like LR:XIII gameplay in the future. XV I hope keeps the series roots, but is different enough to stand out on it's own.

***** Again, I disagree. I feel that while the story was weak and required a datalog to understand it at all, the world was rich and rather intriguing. The battle system, while limited, allowed for character to move around the battle field freely instead of sticking to a single line in previous games, which is an improvement. It also allowed to switch roles when fighting with certain enemies and tactics. Yes, the first 10 chapters were a tutorial and were very linear. I'm not going to sit here and say the game is amazing because it's not. I just feel that it deserves a lot more credit than a lot of people give it.

The fact that FFXIII somehow garnered high scores upon release from almost every major reviewer and publication is proof at how ridiculous video game journalism is. I'd almost say politics are less corrupted. All we really get upon the release of game in a major series is a slew of advertisements masquerading as "reviews." It only takes a few months for the same publications to change their tune and acknowledge what a pile of shit games like FFXIII are. It's embarrassing. I know there are people that like it, and you're entitled to your opinion. But I feel sorry for you. The graphics and a few cool moments with Lightning are this game's only redeeming qualities. It's an annoying, convoluted, ridiculously linear, mess of a game that essentially plays itself.

And it is WIDELY known that many "reviews" are simply paid advertising for newly released games. This isn't my opinion. This is a fact. I am truly sorry that you do not understand how the world works, as well as that you are a apparently an overly aggressive, mouth-breathing simpleton who believes FFXIII has any value whatsoever..

Calm down, man. FFXIII was pretty entertaining. I liked it much more than IX, X, and XII personally... good music, fun gameplay, a few interesting characters (I wish that Hope died in a car fire at the beginning of the game, though, instead of being a playable character). I can agree that "reviewing" companies like IGN and their ilk are simply propaganda/advertising machines, though. You'll get much more objective reviews from independent sources.
@frozenaorta10 жыл бұрын
Cody Guadagnoli FFXIII is better than FFIX??? Wow. Well, again, you must understand you're in the minority here. If XIII were a stand-alone, original title, it'd be different. But the flames it constantly attracts are deserving, because it has really become the embodying peak of what all core fans of the FF series have come to despise. The linearity. The convoluted leveling system that implies customization, but is really just tedious busy work. The annoying characters and cliched enemies. The reason it's often referred to as "Final Hallway" is a testament to its ridiculous gameplay mechanic in a series that once was revered for its open exploration and customizeable playstyle. It's a game that nearly plays itself, which renders it inevitably into a movie. I don't need to go into much detail as to why the game has been blasted ad nauseum, but my point is the hypocritical nature of sites like IGN who claim they're reviewing games, when they're actually just advertising them. There aren't nearly enough independent sources for solid reviews of games (in comparison to the cynical film reviewing community), which is why so many people have to look for self-produced reviews like Angry Joe's to actually find a fair evaluation of a newly released title.
@capeda994210 жыл бұрын
frozenaorta I wasn't impressed by IX. I liked the art style, but the story was ludicrous and the battle system was a joke following VIII's Junction/Draw/Eidolon system. The only character's I marginally liked were Vivi and Steiner, and they were about as one-dimensional as you can get. I could rant on about IX, but this is about XIII. Yeah, it was on rails. And to be perfectly frank, the entire series has been pretty linear. XIII just wears it on its sleeve. The franchise has usually boasted an open world, but there are fairly limited sidequests and other avenues of exploration in comparison to rival RPGs. Final Fantasy has pretty much been about turn based combat, fleshed out characters, and epic plots since FFIV. Play the old games again... there's honestly only an illusion of open exploration. It's always optional, limited in scope, and has no effect on the main gameplay other than to trivialize combat. MMOs and open world games like Skyrim are much better for the purpose of sandbox style exploration. I'll tell you right now with near complete certainty that the main FF franchise will never have more than a slight focus on that aspect from this point on (aside from in their own MMOs, since that entire stye is pretty much based around doing your own thing). As far as independent reviews... youtube, amazon, and gamefaqs.com tend to have a plethora of that stuff. I wouldn't trust a magazine or gaming website to tell me what to spend my money on in this day and age.

OperationDEEZ The most interesting thing about Final Fantasy II is how many staples of the series first appeared in that game (chocobos, Leviathan, some dude named Cid, characters with unique names and personalities).As an artifact of video gaming history, it's sort of interesting, but as an actual game it's rotten. The stat progression system was already hinted at in the video, but let's go into it, and other problems, deeper: 1) Stat Progression Increasing your stats comes from using your equipment. So to increase your Strength, you make an attack. To increase you HP, you take damage. To increase your Magic, you cast spells. You also cast spells to level them up. Every spell you acquire starts out at level 1, and must be raised to at least 4 or 5 to be useful in the later parts of the game. You must cast the spells hundreds of times, and you have a few charges each between inn rests. And you must do this for every spell. Did I mention yet that as physical stats go up, magic ones go down? In addition, to increase your Dexterity, you successfully dodge (hope you are using shields for this, which decrease your offensive stats). You want high Dexterity because it governs how easily you can run from encounters. But even with your dexterity and evade maxed out there are a large number of enemy formations it's impossible to run away from. 2) Empty rooms Most dungeons in Final Fantasy games have side rooms that you want to explore because you will find treasures like weapons and armor that are immensely useful. Final Fantasy II does the opposite. It has a huge number of dungeons with tons of doors that lead to nothing. And it puts you in the middle of the room about six steps away from the door. In a game where every step is a possible random encounter that you probably cannot flee from, this is crossing the line into trolling. 3) Worthless party members Firion, Maria, and Guy stay with you through the entire game. The fourth spot is filled by a different person as the plot demands. Most of the time it will be filled by someone who has horrible stats and no skills (I'm looking at you, Gordon), requiring you to stop the game and spend an hour or two grinding them up to acceptable levels. 4) Tiny inventory This game gives you a single inventory panel that holds exactly 32 unique items, and every single thing you ever get goes in there. By the end of the game, about a third of it is filled with quest items that you used once and do nothing but take up space. They even drop Richard's dragon in there, again presumably just to troll you. Yes it's neat to read about its influence on the series, but never think for a moment that you should actually sit down and play this game. Go watch some Let's Play videos or something.

Although they could lose about 90% of the soap opera, melodrama, at least when the melodrama is not happening every 5 minutes I find my self really, REALLY enjoying it!

And it introduced a lot of Final Fantasy staple concepts like Chocobos, Cid, Ultima, and compared to the first game it actually tried to have a developed story and characters. It's not a gem of the series, but one of the worst there is? Cut it some slack. I've got it for PSP and I enjoy replaying it now and then for it's non-linear world allowing me to explore freely if I've the balls to brave the higher-level enemies (or the skill to grind up to their level).

SuperStachey eightnineeightnine Yup. And in the PSP release the bonus dungeons are accessible first thing in the game; in fact you have to enter them as early as recruiting Minwu to get his ultimate weapon from them. And the dungeon is unlocked by using the Key Words you learn, letting you access more floors as the game goes on and manipulate the content of the floors if you know the connection between them. FF2 for PSP is a game made for players who love to level grind and sequence break, and give them incentive to do so.

I think XIII falls into the same category as II: a failed experiment. I appreciate the streamlining they tried. I also thought the characters had potential, but in the end the execution wasn't on par with the concept and we ended up with a game that was boring and repetetive and a story many people simply couldn't relate to. What really brings the shame on square enix is that they extended xiii into an awful trilogy with two games that much like the original had good ideas and concept but just an awful execution. I never thought, I'd ever find a moogle annoying, but Xiii-2 managed me to do that in just a couple of minutes! And LR treats its idea of an open world as somewhat revolutionary when we have all the gtas assassins creeds elder scrolls and even final fantasy onlines out there!

owlflame That's why linear games that follow traditional values like Uncharted and BioShock get a lot of praise from journalists. They're linear, relatively short and straightforward games that don't require any extra effort from the player (No disrespect to those games as they're not really trying anything unique and different to begin with). Practically a journalist's paradise so that they can get the review out as quick as possible; hence the positive FFXIII scores initially. Nobody wanted to admit just how disappointing it was until after the honeymoon period.

The majority of FFXIII fans haven't played other FF games and if they had they would understand how disappointing the game was as a part of the franchise. That doesn't make it a bad game, it's just not as great as others and this list is listing the worst games out of a stellar franchise.

It's like having a box of chocolates and saying one of them is one of the worst, but it's chocolate - all chocolate is good. FFVII slays FF13 any day - it had more going for it, a better more organised storyline that was well presented, characters that were fully-fleshed and had personalities. FF13 for many was a let down, it had so much potential, but it wasn't quite getting there.

Topping that with Vanille, Hope and Snow being absolutely gratingly annoying until they get some character development later on, it leads to an incredibly unforgiving entry threshold. As long as you have enough patience and forgiveness, you will eventually see the gem beneath all the grime, but in the end, I can fully understand why so few bother to dig that deeply.

Well I actually really loved FF13 and all of it's sequels. It definitely comes to one of the most legendary games I've ever played. I feel that only the people who grew up with the old final fantasy games are the ones who criticize 13 so much. They are used to the old way it was played and they like the nostalgia - that part is understandable. As for A Realm Reborn well, it's one of the most popular MMOs out there(after some rework) I can't even put my opinion in this one, FF14 is inargueably a great game. Dirge of Cerberus is also pretty cool but I'm not going to make this comment last forever so I'll cut it short. This video was pretty inaccurate. I see other people in the comments also point out some of the other mislabled "bad FF games"

Persona is mentionable.. love those games a ton. There is also the Aveyond series(starting with Rhen's Quest) That game is more of a less popular (2D) game though. Aveyond deserves all the hype that all the old(2D) FF games did imo.

That's actually not as true as you would think. FFXIII was the very first Final Fantasy game that I had ever played and is the one that introduced me to the series. I also hadn't played any old school JRPG's in general so I really wasn't comparing it to anything like that. Yet I still wasn't crazy about it even when I first played it, though that doesn't mean I hated it. Even after playing and enjoying many older FF games since then I still find things to like in XIII (other than the obvious graphics). I did have a lot of fun with the gameplay and battle system and I do feel like the story had a lot of potential. My problem with the story comes down to it's presentation which we can really blame the directing for. It was all shown in such a backwards way with those 13 day segments, and they weren't even shown in order to make matters worse. The characters I also just felt struggled with proper development and even pacing when development happened. For example Fang having a meltdown quite literally out of the blue just to add character development for her and to get her Eidolen. It was over so quick and seemed very random, things like this just kept happening constantly throughout the game without the proper buildup. They also do little to explain much of the lore and terminology so I found myself frequently going to the catalog for answers. This should never be necessary in any game, for most people who played it was all very confusing and nonsensical. And as if it couldn't get any worse in it's sequel they through time travel into the mix. Just an all around horrible decision. Time travel is rarely ever pulled off well and they don't have a good track record as it is with it being a mess as well in FFVIII, in my opinion. I was actually very happy with XIII's ending, it made me smile and was one of my favorite things about the game. Then XIII-2 completely discarded it. Lightning Returns I enjoyed for its gameplay and return to towns and npc's. So all in all, story presentation was my big issue with XIII and then just the story in general with the last two. But again I still found some enjoyment in them, mainly the first, and I'm very thankful for it because it introduced me to an amazing series. People often refer to one of my favorite games, Lost Odyssey, as the real Final Fantasy XIII since they are the only games really like that for the PS3/360 generation. It was actually made by Mistwalker, a company that consists of mostly former Square employees including its founder. The Final Fantasy games are best known for having memorable and very compelling stories and these guys really bring that to the table. Even if you love FFXIII, when looking at it objectively I would think you could see it's short comings with how it showed its story throughout the game and things that could have been done better. I know I might sound a bit harsh but that's just because it frustrates me with how much of a difference the presentation and pacing would have made. It has potential, and there are things to enjoy with the story for those who care to put in the extra work themselves to look a bit deeper. Some characters were also very unappealing to many, namely Vanille and Snow, and I can definitely see why so maybe some reworking on them as well could have gone a long ways. Anyway, all kinds of people like and dislike this game, and there's also others who fall more in between like me.

At worst it should be number 10, but I think it is better than a lot of other FF games out there. I think its hard to argue that FF2 doesn't have the most productive villain in all of the FF series. Managing to conquer the planet, Hell, and Heaven throughout the game. Even Kefka only managed to ravage a section of the world. FF2 also had some insanely good music. Castle Pandemonium's theme is still one of my favorite FF songs of all time. The sped up melody from the overworld theme gives you the feeling of "this is what I've worked for, its all led to this." Haven't had the feeling from almost any other Final Fantasy game. (I actually Liked FFTA a lot, but would totally be on board with FFTA2 being on the list.)

Other than that, they made changes to the battle system, which were ok, but changed where the tactical aspect of ff games came from, switching it from party composition and abilities to switching paradigms. Overall, I didn't really like it, but I don't think it deserves as much hate as it got/gets. On the other hand, a lot of people say FFXII sucks but is one of my favorites even though it does have some flaws, I just really liked what they did with the combat system and most of the characters were interesting(except Vaan).

I disagree with ff xiii, this game had a great protagonist (lightning). Hard story line bosses (barthandelus, Orphan) Battle mode that requires reflex a and a diferent strategy,. The only thing missing in this game was thee side quest, travel freely on cocoon or sonething like that Ps: sorry for my bad english :(
@carebear14709 жыл бұрын
I highly disagree with you on Lightning. Besides the fact that she's really boring, she isn't even the protagonist. She has no role in the story after the first few chapters. The game becomes entirely Fang and Vanille's show. Light, Snow, Hope and Sazh are just along for the ride. Barthandelus can be difficult until you know what you're doing. And Ophan is really easy, it's only that cheap Death attack that makes him hard and even that can be blocked. The only real hard bosses are Long Gui and Vercingetorix and both of them can be poisoned to death.

Almost every single FF fan I've ever met in my entire life, either in real life, or from internet hates the gameplay. Half action half strategy shit? Aint nobody wants that. (Except you, and some few other people) 3rd, I've played every single numbered FF series available out there. And this, by far, the worst non-online FF ever.

@DrakonLameth10 жыл бұрын
To be fair, I rate FF8 myself as a low point in the games as a whole, but I do it because of the tedious nature of drawing magic, coupled with a general feeling to max out the spells drawn in case of needing them (or to upgrade later), not because it was a bad game per se. The same can be said of grinding for spells/abilities in most of the other games in the series, too, though; 8 just gets ragged on because you're doing it typically in the same fight, not spread out across hundreds of fights.

FF9 character and love development sucks FF13 character development interesting, FF13's gameplay dosn't suck it's an interesting system. In FF9 the character's make stupid decisions, lots of stuff in the storyline is pointless and the most interesting parts are forced or wasted, the love story is badly written and the game likes to pretend that the love story is a main focus, has a character that's supposed to be sympathetic but really isn't, and has a useless main protagonist. FF13 dosn't have these things and is better than FF9.
