Letīs see:

- stopped playing FF7 at the end of disc 1, because the graphics were so pixalated and shit that I could not find the further way
- stopped playing FF8 on disc 3, fight against Edea inside that opponent garden. Had no chance, she kept casting "death", I said "fuck you". Only found out years later that itīs actually making the game harder, if you level up your characters,
- didnt play FF9
- stopped playing FF10 in the very final area before the final boss. Random enemies would one hit-ko me with "meteor"-spells. I said "fuck you", not intending to spend hours of grinding.
- stopped playing FF12 somewhere on disc 2 against some plant-tree-monster that would fuck my group with status-spells. Would have needed hours of grinding => fuck you
- stopped playing FF13 after like 15 hours ... because it sucked.

My love for Squall Leonhart keeps me coming back to this series, but damn, the games are so badly designed that only fanboys would ever praise them. Meanwhile, MonolithSoft manages to create fantastic jrpgs with engaging gameplay, namely Baten Kaitos, Baten Kaitos Origins and Xenoblade. Square Enix should make another Crystal Chronicles, would be better than their pretentious, "mature" Final Fantasy-crap. I mean, lol, FF15 already sucks, simply because the hero looks like Sasuke.
