Yay time to throw out my opinions!

Is FFVII a bad game? No. Is Sephy truly a bad villain? No. Do I hate VII? No. Do I like to carry on conversations about VII? No. Is it my favorite of the series? No.

So yeah that is the cliff note version and here is the expanded, yay....

So as others have pointed out, I do not dislike VII but the fanboys are something that irks the crap out of me and even some of the haters get on my nerves.

Generally I avoid discussions on VII because the bias is there and half the responses are generally retarded. If someone is willing to actually discuss the game with out making comments like "Sephy is so hott", "Cloud funkin' pwns", "Everything about VII is original", "Tifa's boobies are the best boobs ever" and what not then I am all for actually discussing the game. I know I limited my quotes to fanboy comments but most of those are far worse then the acclaimed "haters". Atleast the "haters", which I have been accused of being more then once, tend to put some thought into their objections as to why it is not the best title ever.

I will on the other hand step into a conversation to get a rise out of people when I am feeling goofy because lets face it some of the comments that people make about VII are just hilarious.

I do enjoy sitting down and giving this title a play though. That is simple enough. It is not a bad game by any means but I do find most of it to be very similar to VI in many ways. Not that it is a bad thing, VI was an awesome title, why not replicate something that was good.

As for the originality argument; lets face it, nothing is original anymore. Chances are if you think it someone else has already done it or at least attempted it. I prefer the lack of creativeness argument, were people own up to the fact that certain characters are cookie cutter but were not developed enough to make them unique to their bend aluminum mold, this applies to more then just VII.

I generally dislike trying to carry on conversations when people state that "Sephy is the best / worst villain ever" with out actually giving explanation as to why they think he is / isn't better then every other villain out there.

So to be blunt once again, do I hate VII? No.
