Thread: Final Fantasy Extreme?

  1. #1

    Default Final Fantasy Extreme?

    Why should Final Fantasy Extreme (FF5) have it's own forum if Final Fantasy II (SNES version) does not even though it is much more popular? You should either give FF2us it's own forum or mash FF5 into that cludder of FFI-IV

    Because FFV is better.

    I still think we should split that forum up already. It's not like we're so small a community that it's not warranted. Also, we'll get more hits from people searching for the phrases "Final Fantasy II", "Final Fantasy III" and "Final Fantasy IV" since the "I-IV" won't make those searches flunky for us.

    It's also worth thinking about recategorising those forums, because shoving them all under one big Square Enix category is messy as hell. Having said that, I can't think of a decent way to recategorise them.

    Splitting them all up (1, 2, 3, 4 etc.) seems like a good idea.

    Instead of the big ol' Square Enix category, we could group by console:

    NES: 1, 2, 3
    SNES: 4, 5, 6

    etc.

    Although I guess that won't really work since games have been ported to handhelds and other consoles. Urgh. It might just end up worse.

    How about split the Square-Enix forums into three, Old School (1-VI), New School (VII-XII), Misc. (Non-standard FFs, other Squeenix series, etc.)

    Old School*
    FFI
    FFII
    FFIII
    FFIV
    FFV
    FFVI

    New School*
    Final Fantasy VII
    FFVII - Dirge of Cerberus
    FFVII - Advent Children
    FFVIII
    FFIX
    FFX
    FFX-2
    FFXI
    FFXII

    Miscellaneous*
    General FF
    FFT
    FFTA
    FFCC
    VGM/TSW
    CT/CC
    KH
    General S-E

    * Subject to change.

    Just a thought.

    That is quite possibly the best idea Proto has come up with in donkey years.

    There would probably be fights over whether to classify FFVI as new school or old school…


    And if there wasn’t there should be.

    FFVI is clearly old school, it was actually a good game.

    Old School would possibly be before Square ditched Nintendo in favor of RPG friendly PlayStation.

    I like Proto's idea, and really with all of the ports we're seeing it probably would warrant some of the earlier Final Fantasies having their own forums.

    Is it time for another one of these threads already?

    It's been like this for 6 years, this is how it should stay. Of course, I don't give a damn as I very rarely venture into the gaming forums anymore, but we can't let these newbies get the run of the place.

    I've decided that this time I'm actually going to push for the change, though. People are right when they say that, with the old games being re-released (along with the fact that over the past year we've been growing at a much faster rate than earlier times), it's time we got with the times.

    EDIT: Note to self, if we do this, remember to get the forums links in the frontsite sections adjusted.
