It's a poor franchise that, when something goes wrong, Square just brings back FF7 in some manner because it'll make the rabid fans blind to all the issues the most recent problems because they can't stop circle jerking over 7.

I've yet to play XIII...so...no comment. Though, the demos I played weren't bad. I am glad that XV isn't turn based, since it'll be a nice change of pace. I'm also going to kind of agree, I do think that VII gets a lot of hate as well...or at least it's fans do. As there are two camps generally speaking: 1. Those who think it's the greatest video game ever, and claim that nothing could ever top it. 2. Those who think that all of it's fans are closed-minded pretentious tools who are clinging to nostalgia.

That said. I do think that they need to give VII a break. Yeah, it's really popular, but it would be nice if we got more backstory into other Final Fantasy universes. It got a prequel, and a full-length epilogue movie. It would be nice if other FF games got something like that.
