Final Fantasy... a game that has been a top seller in the RPG world... however, the storyline keeps revolving around crystals, totemas, kings and queens, will the story ever be Final..?

"crystals, totemas, kings and queens"These have only been in the early final fantasy games, FFTA, FF9 and FF12.FF9 had them as it was a call back to the early final fantasy games, FF12 had them as it was in the same world as FFTA.

So far i think you might be true. ff7 was the best for me but gradually started decreasing until it hit uopon 10&11 which were both fantastic games

Final Fantasy 10 didn't have crystals...or "totemas" like in Final Fantasy Tactics advanced (Tactics was SOOOOO much better than this...they completely killed it here -_-)The only storyline I thought sucked was Final Fantasy X-2's. What the hell happened here? In 10, they said anyone or anything that dies and never was sent/accepted death, become a fiend. Umm...with the exception of Shinyu? He's not a fiend -_- he's just a ghost. That...somehow can become tangible. Not to mention, they forget to tell you why almost everything happens. Especially with the appearance by the sexy aeons. They were pertified once Yuna sacrified them in order to kill Yu Yeveon...yet they still can come back, alive and well? *off topic* you think training is hard? Try making Yuna be able to one shot Yu Yevon. 152 strength for me :) But Tidus comes in first with 166 strength =P I won't include their other stats...I'll just say that Tidus can kill things easily with magic and leave. =D

ok i think that final fantasy isnt getting worse its getting better and final fantasy x is a perfect example ive had it for 3 years or so and still play it but ffx-2 was shameful i dont know what the creators were thinking then but mabye it shows how lucky we are the final fantasy is always new instead of sequel after sequel

the problem with ff nowadays is that, unlike fire emblem, tactics ogre, or other sagas, it has no common pivotal point: there is no common religion, there is no common world, there is no common anything, just names and maybe chocobos (mogus arent coherent from one game to another)they can turn any average game into a top seller final fantasy by calling their smelling salts into phoenix down and their ice spells into blizzardaside from this, ff's target audience is very easy to impress, so a ff storyline only needs to have some flashy moments and a cool character or two. i miss the plot depth of final fantasy tactics (psx)

All the games have storylines based around a love story. FFXII is the only one that isn't. It's about british imperialism, the first of the Final Fantasies that are based on politics. If that bugs you, sorry, you bought a game you won't enjoy. Hope you have fun with FFXIII.

i won't say that the games storylines are getting worse,but with everything, FF tend to stick with a few tried and true basics,eg. the love story, evil villain who usually has super powers as well, usually turn based play, and simple character classes (e.g designated equips)the stories themselves don't change too much, and they are still sound and good to play through,but its the way the game is executed and played that will influence how we perceive the story.FFXII comes across as having a weaker story, but the gameplay is decent so it doesn't seem as bad.FFX-2 had no story i can remember, and the gameplay felt very recycled, and the missions aspect only made the game worse,but the story could have been very good, but since we jump around so much, you lose sight of whats a sidequest and whats the overall goal.so in my mind, its not so much story, which is still very good, but rather how the game conveys it and goes about telling it that determines whether or not its a good game.

I think the storylines SquareEnix are using arent really good enough, the storys are a bit stale and feel like they've been recycled (no offence to recycled products) also the recent male leading characters are nothing but wimps and generic, particularly Vaan and Tidus - any opinons?
