#65  Marick, of course there's likely going to be a change in the future. Hwever, there are currently about 15 games in the FF series (including FFX-2 and the FFVII sequels). Right now, it's logical to divide the series based from the jump from 2D to 3D. When the time comes, I'm quite sure EoFF will need another change, and that's not likely going to happen for a couple years, when Square-Enix plan to make even more Final Fantasys. |

 | So they will start inventing games that are beaten as soon as your halfway done with it. niffty huh? And that depends on which demension theory you go by. I've heard a few. Edit: Before I forget, would these mean that Kingdom Hearts and Chrono Trigger will be tossed in with General Enix? I say we make one additional Forum section and Call it Enix for all other Enix games. Subcatagories will be Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts 2, FF Music, Chrono Trigger/Cross, Possibly Xenogears, and then Other Enix. Just a suggestion |

 | if you can prevent future work now, why not do it? Besides, Graphical jumps won't be made as drastic as the 2-d to 3-d jump. Things will be more gradual and continual, not immediately different and new like the jump was from SNES to PS, therefor, there won't really be a next generation graphically, except by system; 3-d is simply going to keep evolving into slightly better versions of the previous. |

| Administrator  | Marick, going by that idea that we should prepare for the future, we may as well put every forum into it's own category in preparation for all the spinoffs.  Categories should be made for the existing forums, not the far-off. I say again that if you don't see the biggest change in style being from FFVI to FFVII then you need to get your [something] checked. It is without a doubt the turning point in the FF series, regardless of whether you see it as for the better or for the worse.Also, again, we won't be making categories with just three games in them anytime soon. The idea is to tidy things up a little. Not to mention (again) that games are released on multiple platforms these days, so sorting them by console simply wouldn't work. Proto's right, we should concern ourselves with the present, not the future, especially when SE is moving as slowly as it is these days when it comes to releasing new games. |

| | Note, i never said anything about their graphical change being bad, nor did I imply it, please don't imply that I did. I never said it wasn't a turning point, it is obvious in fact, however, we're never going to have another drastic turning point such as this, it will be continually gradual from now on, so once we get to FFXIX or XX, assuming they get that far and that it doesn't matter that we won't be here, we'd be in the same boat as we are now. Also, there is a HUGE graphical lunge between III to IV, not by dimension, but rather by sheer color and detail. Well, my system wasn't to list them by consoles individually, but rather the generation of systems (that is the time period) of which the game would be released. I thought that was obvious, thus I avoided things being released by console and rather just slumped the group of systems released at the same time under the same generation, which they are. Also, what is wrong with having 3 games per category? Is that really a problem? We have the reference section with 3 forums and the staff section with 1 forum. What is it going to hurt to help the future of EoFF out in order so they don't have to go through the hassle of re-arranging the forum once again. I'm not understanding the logic that the future simply doesn't matter. Square isn't really going that slowly at all. Especially in the way American standards are going. From FFII to FFIV, we had to skip FFIII, and the same with FFIV to FFVI. We had to wait for FFV's creation. Also, these were all spaced out by relatively a year to a year and a half which is the release dates now per FF game. Just because Square took time from the number system to add in X-2, chronicles, tactics advance, doesn't mean they are going slower, it means they are adding games in the same amount of time. Also, Square has been doing is remakes of games, which are being released in the same amount of time as all their other games. This doesn't mean Square is going slower, it just means they've taken a break from the numbering in the series. It is bound to pick back up after the release of III enhanced version. I don't mean to seem like a jerk and try to be difficult, but I just think it'd be in everyone's best interest if we sorted it up by gaming generation.
