The best-kept secret of Final Fantasy is that most of the main games are actually good and teenagers on YouTube are just whiny douchebags.

Except the remake of 3. Don't play the remake of 3.

Having just played the remake of III for the first time, I absolutely believe it's better than VIII in every way except music.

But I love all FF games I've played except VIII. So I agree with you overall but substitute FF3 Remake for FF8.

2 is also bad. I say this as a dyed-in-the-wool SaGa lover: Final Fantasy 2 is not a good game.

Well yeah but it's bad because it's a prototype, not because it's a SaGa game. FF2 is like Assassin's Creed 1 compared to RS3's Black Flag. It's a bunch of interesting ideas thrown together into a sparse tech demo, and then they turned it into something really cool half a decade later.

It's real simple yo, you got this fangirl obsessed with this German electrometal band Time Kompression and she wants to get them to play at the prom but they're pretty awful so you and the rest of the student council have to stop her and get Hot Dogz to play instead and at some point you find out you all grew up in the same orphanage but forgot.

Absolutely right. The best parts of FF VII and Xenogears are the psychological aspects, because they just didn't hold back.

The other half of the game has Cloud cross-dressing, going snowboarding and telling his companions to "let's mosey" and I wouldn't want to lose that either.

They could recreate a lot of that poo poo simply by having Cloud become a massive stoner.

GUNDAM!!!
So I watched the EU trailer for FFXV (seems way better than the US trailer) and between the scene with the boat and the flying car, I get the impression we're getting a proper world map? Have they said anything about that I might have missed? I figured up until recently they'd be doing the giant, interconnected zones Xenoblade style but now I'm wondering if they are aping the DQ8 style, giant 3d world map. I hope so, at any rate.

They said in the past they are interested in doing a real world map, but who knows at this point honestly. At one point they even said the "world map" will be Just Cause style where you zoom out extremely far but go very fast but it's still the same world and they are looking at Just Cause tech for it since they're all one company.

I have no idea what is still true

I thought talking to the JC team was just for what was called the airship but we now know is a flying car, because they had experience with plane physics?

renaming everyone to have extremely generic names because it makes me laugh to think the big hero who saved the world was John Smith (I think that's actually one character too long if you have a space)

The optimal name is one where if you hear it, you can easily imagine that being the name of a plumber or sparky. "I'm Craig Jones, SOLDIER first class".

canonically it makes sense because even though Sol Badguy is the protagonist of Guilty Gear and a hero who saved the world multiple times, in story he's a wanted man. However, since I never played Guilty Gear Overture things may have changed.

I renamed Cloud to Zack because that was my best friends name and that's what I did with FF games. It led to an extremely confusing first playthrough.

I wouldn't expect them to differentiate the two versions. I imagine that it'd be a choice you can make in the game.
