What's Your Name, Dude?
So...in FFX you could make your name. Therefore the voice-overs never said his name.
In XII you couldn't edit anyone's name at all. They said all the characters names and things.
Which do you prefer better? Not the games per-say but how the names will be pronounced. Do you want to be able to hear the main characters name in furutre games?

I prefer the ability to edit names. While alot of times I don't change the names I like having a choice.

I don't care that much either way. I suppose I like the freedom of having the option to change the characters' names, but I never do. Probably just because I'm so new to the series. If I ever replay any of the games sometime in the future, I'll probably make use of the ability to change character names. I just like to use the actual names the first time through.

Of course I want to be able to hear the character's names in the future games. It gives the character a little bit more meaning, if you get my drift....but maybe not. =(
Okay, in other words, the name gives the character more prominency.

Either way is alright by me, it doesn't really bother me. I don't really like renaming my characters, I did it once in Final Fantasy VIII and it didn't feel the same lol. I usually just keep all the characters the same name unless I change them for a bit of a laugh. Lots of people seem to like changing them though so I guess having the option to do it is a good idea. Everybody is different!

I don't really have anything to argue about in games where you are not allowed to change the characters names. Even when I do have the option, I choose not to. I like to keep everything about the game 100% original.

I like it better if we don't choose the names. Like in XII. They said Vaan's name in the VO's and it was a refreshing expereince hearing the main characters name.

I never change the names of the characters, the originals are always much better.
