I don't play as many RPGs as I used to. I am more of an MMORPG/RTS/Survival Horror kinda girl. I played quite a bit of FF back in the day though.
I've looked into a few MMORPGs lately, (tried the BattleStar Galactica one, for instance), while in the process of assisting to delevop an
"Honorverse" game under author David Weber's auspices. I don't know if you're familiar with his
Honor Harrington sci-fi series or not however, he's a stickler for staying within cannon in regards to what he wants to see in a game based on his series.
