Squaresoft got me annoyed the way they over hyped FF X and KH so much yet when I got both of them, I didn't think too highly of them, maybe if they didn't hype so much I would have a slighter interest in those 2 games since they were pretty good and kept me occupied for some time. All Squaresoft fans will probably hate Legaia 2 and Wild Arms 3 since they are more based upon old school RPGers but if you're willing to try something outside Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, those 2 games are pretty damn good considering they are sort of underrated, Shadow Hearts is probably your best bet since it has a well done storyline in a dark setting and the characters are really good(especially Yuri, the game's main character), Grandia Xtreme is just based on dungeons and battle so if you don't care about story at all... go for that.

Ok I'm done laying it into Squaresoft now. I'll just wait and see if FF XII is going to be good (not getting FF XI because I don't wanna play online and you have to pay a monthly fee to play and I can't really picture an FF being online) I WON'T get FF X-2 since I didn't think too highly of FF X.
Don't get me wrong, I've played just as many non-Square RPGs than Square ones. And I don't like each FF game because of their style, mainly because of the storyline and great character developement, the battle systems are always great, even if they are all quite similar (if it ain't broke, don't fix it). But it doesn't mean I don't enjoy other types of RPG, just in my opinion they are rarely as deep. And you are the one that commented about disliking FFX because 'it didn't feel like an FF'. :?

It's all opinion though really. Squaresoft didn't get all this acclaim for nothing. :wink:
