personally i go with dot hack for a wide range of reasons. Namely because from what ive seen of the game, FF7 is decent and certainly not as good as others may think. So due to that the game...well i just have no interest and that interest declines the more i hear about it. And the fact that some annoying guy put the final nail in the ff7 coffin for me when he says stuff like "dont call me by my real name, either call me cloud or sephiroth" and all kinds of things where he wants to be called either of the two. Its funny because the before all the overhyping of FF7, i actually wanted to play the game since a friend of mine had it. But after the hyping and the noob comments i just gave up on the series altogether (ff7, not the entire ff series, since there are a lot of good games, like the previous 6) Oh and the fact that they made a movie: FF7 advent children. I was like wtf? and if its not bad enough that whenever i go to franks (otherwise known as Frank & Sons, which is a collectors market, that sells a bunch of anime, sports tgc stuff etc.) majority of booths i see were playing that movie, and so i got tired of seeing it which made me not like it even more. Incidentally and Ironically, my dad came home with a limited edition copy of the movie, since he works for the company that makes stuff like that. and i think to myself, "is this some kind of joke?" well its fine since my dad got it since im into games and anime and stuff, so kinda my fault for not telling him about me not liking ff7. All in all im just sick of the concept of ff7 altogether. id much rather play FFx2 XD (btw im well aware of the consequences for that last comment, but hey its funny to me lol)
better yet, while were on the subject id play GU over either. Well its not too hard to figure out why. I just like the series a lot more. That and its not overhyped to be the end all-be all of games (though imo it sort of is for me) and if it were to be overhyped, well it would be a different story because ive at least played the game, and i liked it a lot. But unlike some formentioned fanboys im not gonna run around forcing people to call me haseo or triedge or even piros the 3rd for that matter. But thats kind of besides the point. And what i like about .hack, is that well first off the main character is bad freakin ass. Im not really gonna mention that i like the GU's graphics though, since one, the games were made at different times, and two, graphics are irrelevant compared to characters, story, gameplay, music and so forth (which i like about the GU and the previous .hack games). Graphics are nice and everything but if a game were to have the best graphics possible, but have little or no story then i couldnt play it, but once again thats a little off topic.
in a nutshell to this post thats my opinion: .Hack//GU > FF7
on a final note, in case theres any FF7 crazed fans, take the time to note the word "opinion", everyone is entitled to one, and im just stating mine that i simply dont care for FF7 at all. So lets not go about flaming me for speaking my mind, not that i think anyone here is like that, im just taking a precaution.
oh and on a last side note, sephiroth isnt much of a villain. so he killed arieth or w/e her name was, thats not evil. And yes kefka IS more evil than sephiroth, due to his personality and list of accomplishments i guess you could say. (sorry i just had to bring that up since i was talking to someone a while ago, who said that sephiroth was the most evil person and stuff like that, it still gets on my nerves to hear that sometimes, honestly theres other FF games, try playing those.)
