Hey, peeps who have played Final Fantasy 9:

Is the reason it's so universally canned because the characters are chibi, or is it really not that good a game?

7 bored me within an hour, 8 bored me within an hour, but the clips I've seen of 9 look really interesting, probably BECAUSE the characters are chibi-looking.  But I don't want to invest, like, hours of time if the game isn't really that good.

Any input would be appreciated.

7 and 8 both seriously bored you? If you're not a Final Fantasy fan, I wouldn't bother with 9. I loved it, but I also adored 7, 10, and 12. I didn't get into 8, but I just didn't take the time. If 7 and 8 didn't do it for you, I doubt 9 will either.

And I'm sure it gets backlash because of the style, because it's no different than 7 and 8 gameplay-wise.

7 got my goat because it was set in such a technical world and 8 I never got into because I had to return it to Blockbuster. The gameplay was all right, but not good enough to make me rent either again. If I (coughcough)download 9, think I'll enjoy it?
