GT says "FF13 is the most disappointing FF ever" but gave it 8.6/10 & FF12 an 8/10

This was extracted from Invisible Walls episode 193 (FF13-2 discussion at 27:20) published Jan 14 2012.


Shane: "Is it safe to say FF13 is the most disappointing FF ever?"


Brandon: "That would be 14."


Shane: "Oh yes, I forgot about that"


Brandon: "13 was the most disappointing console single player main entry in the grand scheme..."


Shane: "Does it feel more like a Final Fantasy game, because 13 to me, i felt like could be any futuristic RPG..." (30:40)


Brandon: "I would say its a little bit more, there's a little more FF archetypes in there. But it still feels like its the furthest away from the other games in the series"

If it is the most disappointing FF game ever, the question must be asked. Why then did they rate it 86/100 but gave FF12 a score of 80/100?


FF13-2 is just 14 days away, looking forward to their review.
