** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyRecordKeeper'' is considered to be "what ''ATB'' should have been in the first place", with a similar set-up and draw (form a party of ''Final Fantasy'' heroes, explore levels from their home worlds) but a much more complex gameplay system with much gentler micro-transactions.
** Though it's still not highly regarded, people began to warm up to the game a bit more once it was made free to download. At that point the only things you need to pay for are optional extras, you're free to ignore them and just play the base game, which is nothing special but provides an adequately entertaining way to waste time.

They Wasted A Perfectly Good Plot isn't about interesting ideas in a bad work


* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Based on premise alone the game ''could'' have been great, and the sprite work is awesome and shows there was real effort put in. The result has not only been underwhelming, but completely hated by fans and reviewers alike. Square Enix themselves seemed to recognize this, as the premise was basically recycled into ''Record Keeper'', which has done far better.

* VindicatedByHistory: While its infamous reputation means it'll never live it down, the game has an astoundingly good 4.1 rating on the app store. Due both to going [=F2P=] and the public's general acceptance of most of the game's predatory mechanics like the gacha due to popular games like ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyRecordKeeper'' and ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', it's now deemed a fun time waster.

* GoodBadBugs: It's possible to cheat the waiting mechanic by changing your device's time.


* TheyJustDidntCare: The whole game just screams "zero effort for a quick buck". The entire gameplay just consists of swiping the characters repeatedly with no strategy whatsoever, and the game is built in such a way that tries to get you to pay money to bring fallen characters back. The sprites save for some "premium heroes" and the soundtrack is all recycled from other games.

The Scrappy is a hated character, not a hated game.


* TheScrappy: Slowly becoming this to ''the entire franchise.'' Between the microtransactions, the screen swiping battle system, randomized DLC main characters and overpriced DLC campaigns, you have a major bomb in the iOS store. Reviewers have unanimously declared it a lazy cashgrab to the point of some saying it's ''insulting'', and most of the fanbase concurs. Considering the massive BrokenBase the series has, for ''everyone'' to hate it is an impressive achievement. Even the much reviled ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyMysticQuest Mystic Quest]]'' had ''some'' fans.

** Having to pay for new areas and new characters is a dick move, but excusable. What isn't is that the gold hourglasses you need to revive the party cost money. Yes, when your party is getting pummeled, your only options are to wait three minutes of real time as they revive automatically, or pay money to revive them instantly. You have to ''pay more money'' to revive your party members.
