final fantasy 9 Tee

Not as sucessful as the last two games because: - Very restrictive and crappy limit break system, which often meant wasting hugely powerful moves on worthless opponents such as goblins, and then not using these moves again for another 50 or so battles - Treasure items in hidden places in almost every single location your character can be a part of means that most players will feel frustrated at reaching the halfway point of the game and then realise they've failed to complete 60% of the games quests, because they missed a few important items in the first couple of villages (that were beside a girls bed in a random house, for example) - New, weird races, which had no appeal to anyone and instead made the game feel surreal and alienated - Cocky shit of a main character who you will feel the need to murder at several stages in the game - The fact most new locations are destroyed a couple of minutes after you've left them, leaving you at the end of the game with fuck all to re-visit - Un-customisable and straight forward character development, leaving almost no choices at all open to the player in how each character is improved, apart from choosing their equipment - After acquiring all the games playable characters into your party, you feel as if you're travelling with a bunch of misfits, not a group of heroes who want to save the world - Confusing, fickle and somewhat pointless storyline - Lack of a "do what you like before the end boss" part of the game, like in FF7 with the airship - Lack of massively powerful opponents, like the WEAPONs in FF7 and the hidden GF's in FF8 - That depressing feeling that this game has been aimed at the "younger audience" - Slow and clumsy battle animation - Shit summoning attacks - No real excitement in the storyline and little information about the game's other characters - Somewhat lack of seriousness that the other two games had, and instead has been replaced by a wizard candy-house ye-olde-medieavel world - Frankly shit end sequence - And to top it off, the slow realisation that this is probably the best game Square is going to produce in a long time, this confirmed when playing FF10 - Bad game music
