Square is running out of ideas.

Heck, the problem isn't just with Square. When's the last time you saw a truly original game?

For me, I haven't seen one like that since Daggerfall in '96.

Well, kingdom hearts was just gay anyway, and I agree about needing to show the enix side of square-enix, but I see no problem with continuing the final fantasy series. I could understand if they were continuing the same stories every single game, but they don't. It's always a new story, with the exception of FFX-2 so far, and there are always new battle features or something.

The stories are getting to be a little predictable, though.

I want a FF game where you play an evil character from the get go. Instead of saving the world, you should conquer it.

Or how about a more personal game story? Where the hero isn't out to save the whole world, but maybe only his small country/hometown from a few other groups who wish to conquer it.

I love the evil character idea.

Daggerfall was the sequel to Arena. Daggerfall had the largest fucking game world ever. It took literally a week to move from one end to the other on foot. Morrowind was released recently in 2002 and is equally great with much graphical improvements. Square obviously doesn't like originality or they wouldn't be still making sequels to a game named "Final Fantasy". I don't care about the next FF game and I'm much more excited about Chrono Break but I'd gladly give that up for Fallout 3. Go to Hell, Interplay.
