Because it became an action adventure game with very little depth to the combat. This made it appealing to a wider audience (NA) but mostly antagonized fans that have been playing FF games for over 30y. FFXII was the last good single player FF, the gambit and license systems were just amazing! FFXVI has a great plot and voice acting but the combat and overall lack of strategy and tinkering were a sore disappointment.
I remember being super excited over 13, only to fall asleep playing it. 98% of combat encounters was just mashing X-button :/
I took 3 days off work when it dropped to play it.. Errr.. Or rather to watch it play itself.
