Worst RPGS

« on: February 28, 2011, 07:11:37 PM »

List in your opinion the Worst RPGs, they can be based on personal dislike, or just bad mechanics in general. Here are mine.

FF XII: Oh dear god, this game ruined the Final Fantasy series just ruined it, shame too because the graphics are spectacular and I liked the Sky Pirate feel, if only they went with that more. This game really ruined the FF tradition by getting rid of story and character development, which has been a long time staple of the series starting with IV. Also I personally blame this game for making FFXIII So linear and without towns. Square probably went the opposite direction with XIII because of how badly XII did.

Unlimited Saga: Have never played this and don't plan to from what I've heard. WTF, a board game?! What the hell were they thinking?? Board games don't belong in my RPG, kthanxbai

Lunar Dragon Song: No.....Just no.....How dare you tarnish the Lunar name!!!!

Hell I'm even tempted to put Grandia III up on this list but I won't because it was actually a decent game overall, it just didn't live up to my expectations like the first two games did, aka it never came close to their greatness. (Though it was pretty cool in the beginning.)

FFXII sold 5.2 million copies worldwide.

It is one of only a handful of PS2 games to reach the five million sales mark.

Let's put that in perspective, shall we?

FFXII has sold more copies than:

Kingdom Hearts
Kingdom Hearts II
Dragon Quest VIII
Jak and Daxter (1)
Ratchet and Clank (1)
Final Fantasy X-2
God of War
God of War II
Devil May Cry

Totally bombed. No hope for the series, let's change it completely up.

It's cool to not like it (I'm personally not super fond of it, either), but pulling figures out of your ass to say that FFXII's fiscal influenced FFXIII's linearity is total bullshit.
