Final Fantasy XV Demo

[Lil Frier]

I certainly agree that we should evaluate games and their parts by what they are, not who or what is and isn't present. I think that there has definitely been a trend of trying to throw out an equality-grabber in many games, usually for gay and women's rights. It reminds me of a few years ago, when EA Sports' NHL franchise added creatable female characters, because some teenaged girl wrote about her offense that female characters couldn't be created. This was within a game taking place in a men's hockey league. As I previously stated, an all-female cast in Final Fantasy brought forth no complaints, but despite what is nearing 30 years of releasing games with diverse casts, the makers of Final Fantasy are now having their beliefs in equality questioned over one title. Are people playing games to enjoy them, or to look for a chance to be offended?

I saw this Conversation with Colin video on what's wrong with Square-Enix, and I thought it was a ranty yet interesting video. I'm not sure if I 100% agree with all points made, but I think we all agree that Square is down an odd, odd path.

I kind fi agree with the guy, Se is sitting on a mountain load of treasure ip like Chrono serie and the world end with you. Why not made somethign out of those games.

Personally I think Square Enix is to jRPGs like Disney was to animated movies in the 90s/00s. Disney basically lost their way, and it took a brand new company with fresh ideas (Pixar) to turn them around. Well, in all fairness Disney didn't turn around, they just bought Pixar for ridicuzillion dollars, fired everybody and replaced them with Pixar people. Maybe we could hope a Pixar-like thing can happen for jRPGs.
