Pardon the necropost; but you know, I don’t think the latest Final Fantasy XIII has gotten quite the vitriol it deserves yet, and that probably needs to be fixed.

Seriously!? We can’t even get Megaman out of orbit but we’ll be damned if we just leaved the half ass-caped crusader to pontificate on the fabulous nova crystal stick shoved up her partially covered ass. And the first two games suffered from a terrible case of dumb and dumber. Nobody asked for this!
It looks pretty, but (the last FF I cared about was X and) will that be the third FFXIII? That’s… impressive. In other words, has SE (S actually) lost the ball or is it me? I feel the Enix part is still doing good and had they released DQ Slime for the 3DS in the west I might have gotten a 3DS mostly to play it.
It feels like someone made a wish to one of those douchebag genies that grant your wish in the worst possible “Monkey Paw” sort of way. This is… ignoble. BoF was never the most polished RPG saga, but all games had a very definite soul and style to them. This is flat-out whoring the name out for a quick buck and pissing on all the fans that kept asking them for a sequel.
And when this inevitably fails, they’ll blame it on the fans. Godfucking damnit, I need to punch someone.
