Final Fantasy VII vs KOTOR

Started by Darth_Janus2 pages

Problems with Fable:

-Four years in the making, less than fourteen hours to complete.
-Totally linear, with no reason to keep playing after the credits roll and you restart in the city with all your stuff.
-Horrible graphic fluctuations in certain parts, unacceptable for a four year long creation.
-You get old but you never die. You get fat but nothing happens. You can be gay, straight, or bi and it doesn't matter. You can marry a girl in every town or kill a girl in every town, and the most you'll get is either a halo or a set of horns.
-Character looks stupid.
-Not worth the fifty bucks I spent.

Now, onto FF7:

-For a game where everyone raged about its graphics, it should be much better. FFIII, while on an inferior system, looked much better and had a better storyline, gameplay. Earlier FFs were even better in regards to gameplay, where each character was unique. FFII featured stats that increase as you use them.
-Main characters that don't speak... suck. (*cough* Chrono Trigger *cough*)
-FF7 was the first of the games to go the way of japop (Meaning the characters all look like rejects from a Japanese dance music video). Later FFs do this so badly I won't even consider playing them. The latest ones must be made for girls, by girls.
-At this point in my life, fighting half a million repetitive battles with crap based on "How much I build up" and algorithms is really, really wasting my time. I'd rather play a game where every battle is different based on my actual skill. Mind you, my friend at the time was playing FF7 and couldn't pass a boss. I, who had never played the game, picked up the controller and beat the guy easily. It was sooo simple and soo much like all the other FFs in regard to battle strategy that I destroyed the boss wholesale. Simply disgusting.

Since FFIII, the only worthwhile FF was Tactics, which was still screwed up in some respects. (Esp. translation.)

But in short, I really hate FF7 because everyone raves about it and it's just another FF game, minus likeable graphics (And by likeable I mean something other than depressing lego characters and confusing backdrops coupled with so-so CGI), decent looking characters, likeable characters, and any reason for completion.

Call me a man of action in my old age, but Japanese RPGs are out.

FFVII was made at the beginning of the PS1's life.
KOTOR didn't have a lot to explore, their boss fights weren't any harder then FFVII's and it was pretty short.
Plus the Revan and Malak final duel had no emotion as the Cloud vs. Sephiroth duel at the end of FFVII.

What do you mean the Revan and Malak final duel had no emotion? That was an incredibly emotional duel. I mean you have two former best friends and comrads in arms now worst enemies duking it out and you say that has no emotion?

Yay, FF VII!

Ah.. Final Fantasy VII! I really have to say it was the best FF game even though it looked crap and was easy to finish.

The portrayal of how much Sephiroth owns is done in one of the most genius and best ways I have ever seen. The plot line was pretty amazing too for just some RPG.
Now the climax of the game was a bit off.. But it was funny to cut Sephiroth into a thousand pieces at the end though.

I guess it was really the story and character building in the game that made it good because the difficulty and graphics sure sucked.

But I can't compare the two games because I still haven't played kotor so judging is not for me but as long as we all understand that it is indeed a good game.

sSW only, thanks. Closed.

BTW, the social thread opened my a mod is the OFFICIAL one, which is rather the point. No hypocrisy at all.
