The latest incarnation of the game is another multi-platform MMO game. I don't know how it is doing or if it is actually picking up speed. All I know is that I am not going to play it and I really hope that the end is drawing near for these games. The shitty emo characters and bad hair of the last half dozen games just doesn't inspire me.
While Final Fantasy 7 really helped push the genre forward, I wasn't a fan of the huge change. I enjoyed the first 6 and hoped for the best with 7. Final Fantasy games since then have failed to really wow me and haven't broken the mold as much as FF7 did. I think it is time for a reboot and a fresh new feel for the franchise. I mean more than adding standard RPG elements (like real time fighting and not fights you randomly stumble into), but something more unique that makes the world feel new and exciting again.
I look forward to seeing huge improvements, especially with as fast as the technology has moved the last few years, but I just hope to see the games keep up. Good Luck.
