Undoubtedly the Father of Final Fantasy, the saviour of Square, and an inspiration to me for years, What happened???
MISTWALKER?? I guess my question is, Why would he leave Square-Enix? Sure Lost Odeysey looks pretty good, But I'm nost sure Final Fantasy would be the same without Sakaguchi-san at the helm, or at least producing. Although I loved XII, the story was crap...Again because Hironobu wasn't there. And now you have XIII on the horizon (which looks cool and sounds to have a decent story, mainly because of Tetsuya Nomura) But it looks like a shootem up/ action RPG, and that's just wrong. XII was OK with it's battle system, But I felt more like I was playing Vagrant Story 2 more than a FF.
So my last question. IF Sakaguchi-San had to answer this, what would he say, The question is, If he were still with Square, and he started making Lost Oddeysey, Would it actually be a Final Fantasy? Because My only problem with Lost Oddeysey is the fact that is doesn't sound like Uematsu's greatest musical score. Call me Traditional I guess....
Please discuss. I love FF and it sucks to know Sakaguchi isn't with them anymore, but is that a good thing?
(PS: For all you FF die-hards that check this thread, Go over to GameTrailers.com and check out their series on FF. It'll give you the best feeling of Nastalgia!!)
