So wut u want me to do is... uh unclose the thread or make a new one? Chrono Break sounds sweet... if square made it and its new... then it must be good.
Oh, I have no doubt that the game itself will be well designed. I don't disagree with you AT ALL on that. The problem is the players. Online games require the players themselves to make it a worthwhile experience. Too many people however (mainly Everquest players) have a tendency to completely ruin it for everyone. When you've got an Elf Cleric character running around in a forest asking everyone he sees "Yo, dawg. Need Gil, where can get LOL" that tends to ruin the atmosphere of the game. The fact is, that kind of problem will NEVER go away, so making online games is just a waste. But, it does bring in LOTS of cash for the developers, so the creation of these crappy games will never end. Online RPGs have become chat rooms with pretty graphics...THAT'S ALL.
And I just didn't like FFVIII. The story made NO sense. Graphically, it was amazing. The sound was incredible. The character design was badass. The cutscenes were unbelievable. But the plot was completely disjointed, the Junction system was TOO powerful, and the main character was a worthless dickhead until THE VERY END of the game. Come on, Cloud started out as a dick too, but he became likeable pretty quickly. Squall was IMPOSSIBLE to like.

yep. FFVIII blew me away graphically. The storyline ruined it. Good thing i rented it first
Seriously, I'm convinced that Square didn't actually write a story for the game. This is what I think happened: all of the writers sat down in a meeting and one says "Okay, let's brainstorm a list of really cool events and plot twists that we could use, then we'll pick the best ones and build the plot from there." Only, instead of doing exactly that, they just kept everything on the list and mashed it together into a TERRIBLE game. The whole thing was just a mishmash of unrelated events and random crap. Eye candy, nothing more.
