It didn't ruin the series for me, but it really left the brand in a state of confusion
Final Fantasy wasn't hard to figure out - long, epic story, fantasy setting, air ships, exploration, FUN...and characters
now I'm really confused as to what final fantasy "is"
between the "-2"s and the online games, what is FF and who is it for? The only new single player game they made was nothing like final fantasy. So it's not so much that it ruined final fantasy for me, as completely made me rethink the brand. 13 reeked of a product that no one spent time on, were they too busy with the other shite? Did they even care? were they going for a mainstream audience so it was made exceptionally linear?
The fact that I'm cautious regarding an upcoming final fantasy title, or that anyone would be is a testament to the damage done by XIII.
I'm still confused, now that I know XV is a single player story, I still don't know if it's an offshoot of XIII or was planned to be.
You know what, it may have actually ruined the series, I take it back.

XV was planned to be an offshoot of XIII back 10 years ago when announced.
Once XIII got shitted on they wanted to distance from it, so they made XIII-2 and 3 to put distance from XIII while still working on XV which then became it's own game and shifted to next-gen consoles.
It changed directors from the Kingdom Hearts director, Nomura to Hajime Tabata who directed Type-0, FF7: Crisis Core and got tons of praise for it.
Actually, I'm starting to lean your way, this shite is so convoluted I'm getting tired just typing this out.
I have been and still am the biggest FF fan since the 90s.

I always thought that Versus XIII was kinda the same universe. Not the same world. Or that they all had a similar theme of crystals, hence the Fabula Nova Crystalis title that included Agito (Type-0) and Versus (XV). Not really sure what has changed from that other than names.
