I have no interest in any of these, as I'm your standard Final Fantasy fan that hates pretty much everything after FF6 (7 was great, but hasn't aged very well.) I have to 150% agree with the fact that Nomura's character designs are tired. I swear, he must think "Okay, this characters name is _____, how many belts and zippers can I fit onto their clothing?" I'd do anything to have some classic Yoshitaka Amano character designs (whom Nomura lists as an "inspiration" yet doesn't seem to use any of his techniques or stylings). Also, the FF13 storyline is ass. I made it to Gran Pulse and couldn't help but laugh at how pathetic the storyline for 13 truly was. And the gameplay is horrendous - run down a hallway, fight a boss, watch a cutscene, run down another hallway, fight another boss, another cutscene, fight a- oh wait, the game's over. I hate to be such a naysayer, but Square Enix has shown that they have no interest in making good games or making money, because if they did, they'd make new entries in all of the Enix IP's like ActRaiser, Robotrek, Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia, Terranigma (the Blazer series, of course), E.V.O., or even well established series' of their own. When are they finally going to make a new entry in the Chrono series, not just ports of Chrono Trigger? I loved Chrono Cross, and anything new in that universe would be fantastic - they'd be literally printing money. It's whatever, they got rid of the Active Time Battle, and instead of making choices as to how to take down enemies, FF13 has "Auto Fight" - it literally decides what attacks would be best FOR you. I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
