 Is Final Fantasy coming to a end ??? August 21, 2008
When I saw the commercial for FF XII the first thing I did was go to the store and paid 50 BUCKS for the game. I pop it in and began to watch the beginig movie...it was beautiful great graphics and what not. Then i had control of Vaan I played about 20 hours of the game befor i ran to the store for a refund.
The story is so boring and so long I mean I hear that the storyline is over 90 HOURS LONG!!!!!!!!!!!! normaly I would not have a promblem with that except not only is the story long and boring but every thing you do in this game is something like this town,dugueon,town,dugueon,dugueon,dugueon,town and no story in between.
I mean what is happening to Final Fantasy what is happening to the RPG series I grew up with... and i think i know whats happening to final fantasy. When Square Soft made the movie -FF the spirits with in- the movie flopped so bad that Square Soft had no choice but to join with Enix or Square Soft would have died. now Square Soft (now Known as Square Enix)
kicked out all of the orginal workers of Square Soft such as (nobuo uematsu the music producer of ff 1-10) and (hirnobu sakaguichi the producer of FF ). now Square Enix is milking the FF name and been destroying the FF name ever since they took over.
Is Final Fantasy coming to a end????? to tell you the truth i think so... my only hope now is if Mist Walkers (a new company formed by the people who were kicked out by Square Enix) can demonate Square Enix befor Square enix can slander the FF name anymore.
This is more of a warning than a review stay away from Final fantasy 12 you wont be sorry...
 Long, Amazing, Final Fantasy August 12, 2008
For many of us, we here at Lunar Assignment were sad when we heard that the new Final Fantasy was going to exclude the normal FF style of combat, however we were greatly surprised at how good it was.
4/5 Combat-Setting Gambits for allies, with high and low priority choices met a new quality to the game. Real Time combat, the ability to move freely the License System, and Mist Abilities each added a new and greatly admired flare to each battle.
5/5 Voice Overs-Consistent Voice Actors and expressions made us feel as if we were in the game, the characters themselves were vary distinguishable and did not seem like clones of each other or characters from other various games.
4/5 Story Line-The story was pretty straight forward, as to be expected from a Final Fantasy, however the supposed main character, Vaan, seemed as if he was sitting back and going along for the ride, as opposed to having a huge impact on the story itself.
5/5 Music-The music matched each battle, and scene very well. The new and 'improved' Final Fantasy victory music set a nice flash back to the older versions, though it was used a lot less then normal, which made it even more special.
5/5 Cut-Scenes-The highly done cut-scenes left us in aw, and each of us here at Lunar Assignment were amazed at the detail and amazing shine or dark glow of each one. The medium cut-scenes were also well done, though not as aw inspiring.
4.5/5 Land Detail-Most of each land zone you enter are very well detailed and look absolutely amazing, however once you reach the wastes it becomes obvious almost instantly that the designers did not spend as much time on this land zone, as well as others. The rocks seemed very very fake when compared to the other zones.
Overall-Final Fantasy XII is a must have for any RPG or Final Fantasy fan, the surprises, laughably cliche twists (There is only one or two, don't worry.), hunts, awards, and the beastery. As well as the realistic personal views of both citizens and guards around town are all all pull you deeper and deeper into the game, increasing its replay ability.
Very Good July 31, 2008
Very fun. Even though Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 where both good, Final Fantasy XII is more like a regular Final Fantasy game.
it's final fantasy July 28, 2008
this game doesn't need a review, anyone who has played a final fantasy game knows that are of the best rpg's ever made
stop complaing July 24, 2008
This review is for all the people who gave this game a 1 or 2. The story is phenomenal (although i will admit i may be a little bias from m love of FFT). The main the grievance is the gameplay, how its like the game is always on autopilot. I admit the gambit system is dumb. Its for people who wana just watch the game. However the idea of manual control is good. You cannot play it like you play other FF games. You cant take a hour to make one move. Like a real fight you have to think quickly. Thats the point of the gameplay. Stop Complaining.
