Star Fox General Thread - One of Nintendo’s neglected franchises.

Lightning did the same a decade later, but by FF13, only hardcore fans and lunatics still care about Squeenix.

Lightning was a sex symbol? Lightning's not even the best female Cloud

I meant she was pretty much a sex-toy for the writer, Tetsuya "zippers" Nomura. He would marry her if he could.

of all the major female characters in Final Fantasy why are you singling out the one that's flat as a board as the go to example of a sex symbol

Demonstrating once again that Nomura is a retard. He designed a much better female Cloud in Aya Brea for Parasite Eve

SHMUP ALL STARS.

I don't really want an "everybody is here" crossover, those are gay, lame and autistic in the bad way.
What I'm saying is that I'd love either to see the spaceships commanded by animals fight mecha-fishes or at least adopt the progression system that was fun and made the game extremely replayable.

The multiplayer is pretty fun. I could see myself spending a good few hours on it at a time.

Yeah I have also enjoyed it.

Also nice trips.

You're thinking of FF13 trilogy's director Motomu Toriyama. That's the guy who would shill Lightning everywhere. Nomura barely worked on FF13 beyond drawing the main character designs and I don't think has ever said anything special about Lightning.

Incidentally, Nomura actually wanted to put Aya in the first Kingdom Hearts, but a bunch of his staff were FF7 fanboys who convinced him to replace her with Aerith.

Didn't they have rights problems with Parasite Eve? Because it was based on a book and they lost the rights to the book? That's why they did The Third Birthday and pissed all over the series

Everyone always likes to blame Nomura for anything wrong that happens in a Square-Enix game, regardless of whether or not he actually was responsible.

Toriyama deserves a hundred times more blame for Final Fantasy going down the shitter than Nomura ever got.

They really are both as bad as each other.

Anyway, what killed Final Fantasy was Sakaguchi having to fall on the sword for Spirits Within being a flop. Ironically, I think if they'd done Advent Children as the theatrical film, it probably would have done a lot better and Sakaguchi would have kept his job, even if I thought Advent Children was a shitty, derivative piece of garbage that just rehashes FFVII but shit (the Bahamut scene was cool, though)

Fans speculated a lot about that, but apparently there's no hard evidence that's the case, and Square still holds the trademarks to Parasite Eve for use in the first couple games. Nomura said something about them wanting to take the series in a fresh direction that wasn't heavily tied to previous games. Though from what I can find, while Nomura helped but the concept for making a third Parasite Eve together, the most as fault for the elements of The 3rd Birthday people hated was once again Motomu Toriyama, since he was the story director, he was the one who pushed for the plot having almost nothing to do with previous games, he wrote the plot outline and Aya's personality in the game, and he came up with the dumb plot twists.

Believe it or not, not even Toriyama is to blame for what happened to The Third Birthday. The game was heavily rewritten by Toshimitsu Takeuchi.
