Rest, I have not completed, but i actually am a big FF collector, in the past year I have about every copy of ever FF game I could get my hands on (Japanese as well, and I don't speak it), every time a new game comes out and someone doesn't like it it's a new low.
This sentiment has been held in every FF game ... in NA atleast, VII comes out, people say its a new low, it's turned into a show, VIII same thing, VI same thing (3 here in NA).
Times change, and in turn, people dislike it, a game most people have, is Final Fantasy X, I heard people say both ways, it sucks and its great, personally I thought X was fantastic, suffered a bit due to poor voice acting.
In general however, JRPG's are declining, in number, this is a generation of FPS, and WRPGs, and JRPGs are falling behind, and thats okay, there are still good games to come out of this period, Lost Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles (need to finish), and Tales of xx (Graces F, and Vesperia are good games)
