Never ceases to amaze me that people lap up Final Fantasy XIII and ignore real RPG's.

Different people like different games. More on this shocking development at 11.


As for it being Final Fantasy (you may already know this) the company was likely going to go under when the first one was being developed. Hence the name. It was a success and kept them going. They in turn kept the name.


Also SE doesn't just do RPGs. They published (may have had more involvement, I don't remember) in SupCom 2 for example.
