Exactly. When I think story here, I think of the individual stories as well as the whole. Kotagg Send a noteboard - 26/09/2009 07:13:24 PM
FF6 was an exemplar because it gave you insight into (nearly) every character, and because you thus felt attached to them, you cared more about the overall story itself.

So being a FF fan and never having played FF 12... - 24/09/2009 10:25:44 PM 958 Views
The story in FF12 leaves much to be desired - 24/09/2009 10:41:28 PM 929 Views
I love FF but I didn't even bother to finish 12 *NM* - 24/09/2009 10:45:55 PM 375 Views
Videogame stories suck the big one, with VERY few exceptions. - 25/09/2009 12:29:39 AM 805 Views
FF7?!?! You're a nutcase! - 25/09/2009 01:50:16 AM 750 Views
It was still good though - 26/09/2009 03:06:12 AM 633 Views
Fair enough. Maybe I'm proving my own point. - 26/09/2009 06:46:26 AM 794 Views
I will have to disagree with this... - 26/09/2009 08:20:46 AM 704 Views

Still, it's good for a videogame story. - 26/09/2009 07:54:01 PM 740 Views
I agree, with caveat. - 26/09/2009 11:54:25 PM 844 Views
New games do not feature the storytelling prowess of good TV, films, or novels. - 28/09/2009 01:03:46 AM 753 Views
I disagree. Maybe you're playing the wrong games. *NM* - 28/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 362 Views
What is the videogame equivalent of The Godfather, The Wire, or Great Expectations? *NM* - 01/10/2009 03:31:37 AM 388 Views
Ah, I see. *NM* - 03/10/2009 08:02:28 PM 404 Views
Say what? - 04/10/2009 02:21:01 PM 702 Views
"Ah, I see" means "You haven't answered because there is no satisfactory answer." - 05/10/2009 07:06:03 AM 724 Views
So you expect me to reply within two days when it took you three? - 05/10/2009 10:29:27 PM 654 Views
I've used that escape from a debate I was losing, too. It's a good one - 06/10/2009 09:21:31 PM 777 Views
I... don't think you understand how this works. - 06/10/2009 11:41:12 PM 715 Views
Anything of worth? - 09/10/2009 03:24:42 AM 697 Views
Cymbaline is right. Some games have excellent stories. - 29/09/2009 10:44:16 AM 693 Views
And yet so many people claim to play them for their stories... - 25/09/2009 03:06:44 AM 805 Views
The extras lower peoples' standards, but I DO think it's still the story. - 25/09/2009 04:34:30 AM 697 Views
That's basically what I meant. - 25/09/2009 05:05:19 AM 675 Views
Yeah I understand. - 25/09/2009 05:18:34 AM 762 Views
You are correct. But it sounds like semantics to me, since in practice... - 25/09/2009 06:00:41 AM 712 Views
I suppose it is, at that. - 25/09/2009 01:58:25 PM 758 Views
Well said. - 26/09/2009 06:48:10 AM 718 Views
I enjoyed 12 more than most of those you mentioned... - 25/09/2009 12:55:56 AM 692 Views
I agree. *NM* - 25/09/2009 02:44:08 AM 472 Views
The grid was fine, but didn't scale well. - 25/09/2009 04:35:57 AM 693 Views
I'll agree with this point, but I also agree with most of the thoughts of the GP - 25/09/2009 05:26:18 PM 780 Views
I am glad that at least one person here is with me on this. - 26/09/2009 05:53:42 AM 721 Views
It's interesting.... - 26/09/2009 06:55:18 PM 759 Views
Plot doesn't kick in until later on, sadly - 26/09/2009 07:27:55 PM 703 Views
I partially agree with LoS, and I partially disagree with you. - 27/09/2009 12:07:07 AM 802 Views
Opinion mine: 12 was a great game, and a terrible Final Fantasy. - 25/09/2009 05:03:28 AM 765 Views
I didn't like it and didn't finish *NM* - 25/09/2009 05:34:42 AM 365 Views
i finished it recently and i found it allright - 25/09/2009 11:30:36 AM 988 Views
Final Fantasy XII was the best written FF ever, by far. - 26/09/2009 05:47:27 AM 767 Views
I agree with this. - 26/09/2009 08:22:40 AM 750 Views
LOL... FFXII was the best FFXII ever? - 26/09/2009 03:43:11 PM 724 Views
That was juvenile, TMJ. Also, he said best written FF. *NM* - 26/09/2009 06:58:12 PM 398 Views
Yes, it was funny on a juvenile level. - 26/09/2009 07:11:12 PM 718 Views
Ah, I must have missed the typo. - 26/09/2009 08:32:51 PM 778 Views
So much confusion everywhere! - 26/09/2009 11:48:32 PM 797 Views
Some of us --I'd even say MOST of us-- like that, though. - 26/09/2009 07:20:55 PM 761 Views
Agreed, I want to get into a magical whale's belly and fly through the air ... - 28/09/2009 05:03:14 AM 959 Views
