Can some of you name at least one thing that you don't think belongs in the series or that you can't stand or needs changing/updating?

My opinion, I would really like to see more realistic/feasable characters in Final Fantasy than the either stereotyped ones always played or the designs of one always having to be extreme.  We never get normal characters and they never look normal or fitting.

What is your take?

No. Just no. If you find something wrong with Final Fantasy, you talk to me, I'll set you straight.

It isn't possible at ALL for the series to be perfect.  There are many faults in peoples eyes, many seeing faults differently.  This isn't to to blantantly critisize, but review a wide range of constructive critisism.

What? You are using your keyboard as an instrument of evil! Final Fantasy is the one and only thing close enough to perfect in this world, don't tell me otherwise. DO NOT MOCK MY FAITH EVER AGAIN.

I would change the blatantly predictable cliches as well as the emotially twisted main characters who have no need to be as tormented as they are.

Yeah, with ya there "Coolius" And then there's the whole Sephiroth-going-crazy-over-the-discovery-of-his-creation thing. Sure you'd be annoyed but you'd realise, "Hey! I'm superhuman! That's awesome, I sure am glad I was created!" And with the discovery of the Cetra land taking, "Sure, I can kill all the Midgar high-ups and destroy all the reactors, then the world will be happy again!" Also means you don't have to slaughter the rest of the populous for no reason.

  This may sound weird but im sick of all the teenage blonde haired characters we only need one or two of those and Cloud did it for me. I would like to see maybe a fat, or black, or an old and wise main character for a change. However i don't blame them that they do not.

I'm with you there justsomeguy, why does everyone have to be physically perfect in every way. I'm also with Odin, just cause it's an awesome series doesn't mean it's perfect. Theres plenty of stuff to hate about series we like. Personally I hated how they went online. Also how they did the gameboy connection thingy with Christal Chronicals, that was creative i'll give them that but it was kind of a hassle and annoying.

I love every part of the FF series except the pre-paid online games. They only think about their money than there gaming productions. But I'm not being rude to the makers of FF, they would get more ratings and reviews if they just let go of the pre-paid online games. Now more people would buy them.

I don't like that in FFX-2 you have to get 100% to see Perfect final. In my opinion it doesn't make sense.

Hmmm, FFXI seems to be a hated idea...  I too disliked the idea of having a FF go online, especially that of a mainstream title.

Yes a lot of male voices are actually female, kinda gay only because are voices are lower toned than girls. unless you have a high pitched voice like a girl than...nnnyHahahahaha! i'm sry that came out wrong, not to be rude, but it's akward how a male has a female voice.

Ahhhh, thats something I never thought about...  Looking back at pretty much all Final Fantasy's, they all had side-quests for gainging extra, usually god-like items.  What I think is horrible though is that instead of making you tredge through a level of insanely powerful creatures to get to it, they instead stick you with (an example) a map to find the place on your own, you fight your way to the end to gain a key to access the real area that holds the "ultimate" weapon, you then have to find that place, but in order to do so, you need a certain way of getting there, because it is out of the way, so and so.

In my opinion, I would rather take the time to level up and gain power more than bragging how I took the five hours to get so and so's ultimate weapon.  They make side-quests far too engaging and lengthy for most to even WANT to accomplish.
