"Crystal Tools"?

[ozonez]

Holy crap thats such a bad name, The White Engine was so much better was a name that was like "new technology". Heres a better explanation

The White Engine = Awesome.
Crystal Tools = Crappy Futuristic title

[Final]

Yup,,, the crystal thing has gone way outta hand

That's EXACTLY what I thought! :P Crystal Tools doesn't really bother me but the White Engine sounded better.

[BlankChocobo]

Yeah, I have to say, Crystal Tools is nowhere near as cool as White Engine. If they HAD to put Crystals in there, they should have called it the Crystal Engine or something, but why tools? =_=

The White Engine sounded all magic-like, but tools just makes me think of a screwdriver ~___~

I know Crystal tools sonds like a video game title to me lol

This is just like the time Nintendo changed the name from "Nintendo Revolution" to "Nintendo Wii". Unlike the name change from Revolution to Wii, I don't think people are gonna get used to this change.

[Super Love Machine]

Boo you, Squeenix. White Engine sounded so totally cool. Crystal Tools sounds average, at best, and shows they're trying to capitalize FNC like FFVII.

The White Engine sounded just as bad. I feel the "Tools" part is what pushes the Crystal Engine over the edge though. Otherwise they both are extremely corny and you are just blinding yourself to the point you accept names like Cloud and Lightning.

i would have preferred the "Crystal Engine" as the name

[DIONYZA]

"Crystal Tools"...that is hilarious...lol. If you don't like wii, call it revolution...and if you don't like "Crystal Tools" you can still call it "White Engine" or "Crystal Engine". And if the name is that important then maybe everyone can vote on the name the site will go by...is this a stupid suggestion?

haha that what i was thinking, engine sounds a hell of alot better than tools.

Some people say Crystal Tools sound bad, and others also comment that the white engine doesn't sound any better, what is? The crystal engine? Do we really need to blind ourselves to people who say we're blinding ourselves to names like Cloud or Lightning?

While we're at it let's throw in Link. Why Link of all names for the Zelda boy? Or how about Sonic, because he's super fast, like a "sonic boom"? wtfbbq, Mario!? Where did that come from...?

It's not the name that defines the character, protagonist, action, or things, but what these people/things/action will do/say/produce. For all we know Cloud could have been named Bob, Squall as Chris, and Lightning as Christina, need I say more?

These custom made game engines have almost always pumped out at least one final fantasy title, and crystals are an important element of the FF series. Tools are used to make products, so even if they are trying to emphasize the whole Fabula Nova Crystallis theme, the name Crystal Tools seem fitting to me. Of course people are entitled to their own opinions so if you don't like it go ahead and call it the Crystal Engine or whatever like you guys codenamed it. People just shouldn't spazz out and go "Z0MG Crystal Tools/White Engine/TheMooglePlayhouse Square-Enix is trying to coin a fad and brainwash us into thinking whatever name they come up with is cool!?!?!111oneone1one" because that gets stale and moldy pretty fast. Let people do what they like, and like what they do.

[Kätharina]

Who gives a shit about the name, its how it functions.
Seriously, everybody put this bullshit about the name change behind them, it doesn't affect the performance of the god damn engine.

I'M SUFFERING MENTALLY DUE TO MY LACK OF PS2 AND PS3 LOVE :nag:

All stupid names. Sonic only gets a past for being a animal aka things that get stupid names on the average.

Name your fucking son, Dirt and see how that goes. Your post is more poor then mine and that is saying quite a lot. Need I say more AT23?

[ozonez]

Its actually called The Crystal Tools Engine btw. Engine is applied to all the stuff that they use to make games.

[Vidya]

I don't mind the title that much in all reality. While 'Tools' does give a bit of connotation of lower quality, it is just basically the White Engine...right?

I don't really see what the big deal is, but that's just me.

Well...The White Engine is being used to create Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII, Crystal Tools Engine is the updated version of The White Engine which is the same apart from the fact that it can run on multiple platforms including PC.

No Desi, you needn't say anymore, you can stfu. Because clearly you get offended by someone saying to stop raining on people's parade, if some people like the names Cloud and Lightning, let it float their boat. You speak as if there's some conspiracy with SE trying to make fictional character names cool, well... they're fictional, what did you expect? There isn't a single cartoon or fictional character who has a name that doesn't suit them, and really, the names people bear in real life don't sound much better. Don't think I've ever liked you from all the other posts I've seen you made, because your posts are stupid, but if anything your argument of your points from the last post cemented the fact that you're quite incapable of making valid arguments... yeah, my post is more poor than yours. That's saying so much, considering you've only said 5 sentences. Yep, that makes a very good argument. Back to the 2nd grade for you.

[Desi]

Wow, thanks for opening my mind. I had no idea that the number of sentences in your post is equal to your grade level knowledge. Seriously are you trying to write a college English 101 essay paper or just posting your philosophical know how about the name Lightning making valid sense to anyone other than those that get wet listening to bastardized names. I love you man, I really do. So I'll take the time to "stfu" or however you say it. Maybe you should go to your mom and "FHUTA" because you obviously are not getting my amount of love you desire. And I say it again: I love you man.

----Watch it.

He just attacked me for no reason! I said "hey guys, White Engine didn't sound so hot too" and he started mouthing off about my sister being fat! I believe I kept it tame and civilized this time.

NAUNEN HAS SPOKEN!

[Hakumi]

I think both "White Engine" and "Crystal Tools" are decent names. I do agree that "Crystal Engine" sounds better though. I'm not sure what else they could have called it that is related to Final Fantasy, would people have prefered it be called: "The Mog House", "Moogle Tools", "The Dragoon Developement Device", "Ether Engine" or "The Phoniex Down Machine"....

....Crystal Tools is sounding pretty good right now.
