I think if they came out with demos of every PC game that was released, it would help a little bit. People don't want to go out and pay $50 or so for a brand new game they may not even like. Many game stores will not even buy used PC games anymore because the keys may not be useable for a new owner making the game worthless.
Console games you can at least rent and try out easily, and even resell if they no longer grab your attention. With PC games it is usually a complete risk of your $50.
Reviews are nice, but I have found myself they are not always correct. People don't want to run the riskof wasting their money, so this drives even more people to pirate games for free.
This was a great game. I loved the idea of being able to turn into dragons in the fight and kick some butt. There are times during the game however where it may be hard to figure out on your own where to go next because they don't tell you very easily. The game has been out for so long though that you can easily look it up on gamefaqs or something if you get stuck. Overall, it is a very enjoyable game.
I like this game, and still play it a bit today. The one major thing I didn't like was that you had to sometimes go through a long story sequence and fight a major battle right after, so if you lost the fight, you had to go through the whole story sequence again. Other than that it is a pretty cool game.
It is good for a first time player. In the first few group battles they explain how the battle system works, and as each new member joins, you get a small explanation on how they help the party. Each FF game has nothing to do with the previous ones, except the names of some items and the spells/summons, so you don't miss out on anything story related.
It's basically an excuse to rush a game saying "Don't worry, we'll finish more of it soon". I'd rather they take the time and do it right and release it all at once so you don't have to wait on them to advance.
