@Row
Basically he's saying "If you want a FF7 remake, buy the next FF game, call it awesome, and we'll use the money from the sales to make it. We're broke thanks to those damn pirates (edit:) named Catnipthief."

So basically when hell freezes over. Clearly the whole world has to play along and pretend their next final fantasy release is "better than 7". Then when they finally give us a remake be like "haha suckers!"
Well, 6 is still my all time favorite but 7 is still a stellar game on it's own. Granted, from the fanbase point of view, it'll likely be on the top of the pyramid, including in the sales chart. However, in my opinion, FF is on a very steady and readily noticeable decline in quality ever since (dare I say?) 10. It's understandable that he sees the demand for a remake as a desperate act to return to their former glory, but in doing so would ultimately bury yourself and the future of creative intentions that will likely never see the light of day. But I think rather than slowly drag out the franchise with diminishing quality like it has been for the past 10 years or so, they may as well go out with a bang and just give us one last awesome remake.

They need to make a new Final Fantasy with just sprites and an epic story.
The problem is no matter what story they come up with, it's going to be picked apart by all the other stories.
See, back when their platform was the NES & SNES, their capacity for just about everything, most notably storage capacity was very limited. So they had to somehow make up for that shortage with creative and replay value. And they honestly pulled it off, they made awe inspiring soundtracks, creative and exciting stories, protagonists and antagonists worth giving a damn about, and more. But with this new higher bar of technology, it seems that their leeway has widened so drastically that they have passively fallen back on superficial qualities more so than internal ones.
Allegory is not something that can be explained or demonstrated through posts, as it varies in significance per individual, but I wish SE would muster up some self restraint and go back to the days of combating (now invisible) limitations with something extraordinary and creative, rather than the vapid eye candy they keep regurgitating over and over.
Edit: As far as the "peak" goes, I'll agree that 7 was the height of the franchise in terms of considering quality and sales. However, as far as quality and creative integrity, I would say everything up to the year 2000 was their peak (FF9/Chrono Cross).

Storyline wise, I'm of the persuasion that 7 was very, very weak.
Then again, I share the unpopular opinion that X was their best work.

it made me giggle when I saw Cid in XIV... last name Garlond not sure if it was intentional or just circumstance (I know it's not spelled the same but it's close!)
Not to mention I love the Cid model they used :3 looks so awesome

It was the first to introduce roots to a very pagan/wiccan set of beliefs. Something that struck a chord with me more so than most, so for personal reasons it was still relatively strong. However, the problem with 7 was that their explanations were chopped up and scattered pretty badly, hence the constant spin offs. Which I don't mind too badly, as long as they're legitimately answered instead of leaving us in the dark.

I suppose the moral of the story is: Casuals win.

That was the one with a mini game like jai-alai, right?
Yeah...Never really was overly consumed with the FF series. I was only introduced to it with XI. Then it was kind of a sprinkling here and there. I apologize for my ignorance. Did play VII all the way through with the BF once during one of those boring, melt-your-face-off summers.
If it is the one I'm thinking of, those heroines are annoying characters!

Nobody remembers the heroes though, so I guess payback is a ***!
Nobody touches my princess Garland!

It's funny. When I first played and beat 10, I hated it. It felt like the whole thing was summed up with a bittersweet deus ex machina. Like it was Bobby Ewing meets Final Fantasy. It was pitiful and alienating to me at the time, but in retrospect and given another replay, and for once not taking it so damn seriously, 10 had values no other FF held until then, in that it for once set aside the melancholy and morose glum throughout the game and protagonist and gave a cheerful and hopeful disposition, and actually made you feel like you could make a difference in a world that was perpetuating an endless cycle of death and misery. I have to give it credit where credit is due.
However, the whole godzilla reincarnated with the dream BS is still pushing my buttons and moving me the wrong way.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Continuation from: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/2873/ffxiah-linkshell/732/#150486
Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
