    Final fantasy XI Or XIV?

    Thinking back on FFVIII, there were so many potentially awesome concepts that fell short. Take the GF's for example. The concept behind them are so abstract, that they could have been a much bigger part of the game, but it absolutely failed at that. They were just used as one of the most...
