Haha, the pip boy one is golden!
That list of FFVII spin offs always seems smaller in my mind but then you see the actual list…..
Frustrating that I can’t play most of those weird mobile spin offs… they are probably terrible, but I still want to try them lol.
I used to have a Nokia N95, I think it was, with N-Gage and it had official Metal Gear and Resident Evil games on it. They were pretty fun, not very in depth as you would expect, bought nothing to the overall canon, I think the MGS one ended up being a simulation by some nefarious 3rd party…
Still annoys me a little when I see things like “XI & XIV don’t count” when they alone have been the most profitable Final Fantasy games for SE (although 1.0 almost destroyed SE, ARR saved SE) :T
Sure, anything can be seen as profitable when you charge a monthly fee for it.
Actual game wise, they aren’t great entries.
I thought ARR was pretty strong story wise. If you’re counting those games surely 12 and the lightening series will be cut.
I’ll concede that FFXI’s gameplay was very newbie unfriendly, but the storyline’s found within are by far the best within the Final Fantasy franchise, as well as the music.
FFXIV:ARR’s main storyline’s were a little weak, but were at least meeting the one trope common in Final Fantasy (the Crystals of Light). Binding Coil of Bahamut’s story was pretty well done and Heavensward is keeping my attention (the music is very good, too), with massive zones to explore.
While I know what CorpseRun is trying to say, they’re ignoring a lot of games for the sake of the joke. FFXIII has two sequels and the entire series got released on XBox 360 and PC as well. FFX had two sequels (If you count Last Mission as a separate game) and then got remastered for PS3, PSVita and PS4. FF IV has had more re-releases and ports than you can shake a stick at since the release of FFVII along with The After Years. FF III was also released on DS and PC. FFXII had Revenant Wings on DS as well.
So while FFVII has a lot of games in the franchise, it’s far from holding the company up.
