Square-Enix has been my favorite company for over two decades of my gaming career, and I've tried to stick by them for most of the last five years only to be continually rebuffed with shitty games.
Final Fantasy XIII - You're pretty, but your story sucks and your characters unlikable.
Final Fantasy XIII-2 - You're prettier, but your story sucks, your character are unlikable, and you're a sequel to a game that just wasn't that good to begin with...
OH...and then, there's Downloadable Content.
I guess this must be a Japanese thing, but I don't care what "costumes" my character are wearing, S-E. $3 for a new costume for my character of choice is fucking shitty deal, and that you think this qualifies as something worth paying money for shows us just how little you care about the quality of your gamers' experiences. That shit should be free. How about you offer DLC that allows gamers to play games that have real value for their money?
I understand Square-Enix is attempting to tap new markets, but online gaming is NOT the answer. You are ruining the Dragon Quest series by forcing players to go online to play a game that should be an RPG, but instead forces me to play with others. I don't want to play with others; that's why I purchase RPGs. Dragon Quest is one of the most storied and successful gaming franchises in the world, and rather than continue its great traditions, Square-Enix has managed to pump out crap title after crap title.
It doesn't help that Square-Enix cares so little about gamers in other localities. When Nintendo of America has to step in to localize your RPGs to the United States, you aren't doing your fucking jobs. Fucking figure it out.
I'm done.
