The Final Fantasy XIII series thread. Black people sold separately

Hmm explain to me how that would work please? Sounds pretty cool IMO.

Well, that’s a good point actually. She was clearly someone who was all about “practical” in the last game. The feathers and adornments seem out of place. Someone had to have put her in charge of something. She’s probably some kind of colony leader as they move into Gran Pulse. That or the L’Cie are somehow reviered now.

FFXIII still sucks major nuts. No way in hell that I’m playing this.

Uh-huh. We believe you. ;p

The whole team thing? I have no fucking clue. I just know it would be sick. Maybe some way to toggle between team mates on the fly?

I know I’m sounding like a troll but theres no way people actually liked FF13. TO me it was the biggest gaming dissapointement ever.

I stopped playing when they gave me Lightnings Summon and then switched my party on me again lol. I was like “God dammit…fuck this shit!”

I’m really hype for all these. Agito especially looks fun, and it’ll be on 2 UMDs? it comes out this summer so I will probably import it. I’m excited

Moar feathers!

throws pillow into air and hits it with fist

MOAR FEATHERS!

[My punch is strong enough to blast a pillow into feathers, no matter the material inside]

If they are going to use high fantasy settings then please, for the love of rpg, don’t use jazz (or w/e genre XIII used) this time.

I guess I’ll wait for III-2 to drop down to $20. Lightning looks sexy. I didn’t really like III, but I thought the music was pretty good.

Versus III looks awesome though. Don’t care about Agito or whatever since it’s PSP.

Meh. Rather would prefer the time invested to be put into a new game or XV.

Aiight!! FF13-2 Im there!! Claire looking sexy as all hell. But the wait for Versus=goosebumps. Versus Looks like the FF I’ve been waiting for.

Will it be more free roam or linear still? thx for the updated title/thread

Final Fantasy XIII was the first FF game I really had to PUSH myself to finish… To say I was disappointed was a huge understatement. Of course, I’m also the first to admit that I like predicatbility and classic genre conventions… and FF13 while highly predictable, didn’t offer much in terms of JRPG genre conventions to me, it felt like it tried too hard to be different and to break the mold… (Oh and easily to me, had the worst combination of story / writing in a Final Fantasy game and I thought that title could never be taken away from my least favorite FF, which I shall keep to myself to not derail thread)

Needless to say if the same team that did XIII-I is doing XIII-II, I’m not sure that I’m on board… And I can say that would be the first numbered Final Fantasy game that I will have not bought… and I can’t believe I’m saying that.

And there’s nothing wrong with Jazz, but the orchestration and the actual arrangements were just sub par. FF XIII also had the worst combination of music to mood of any FF, something that traditionally FF has always done well… Nobuo Uematsu was the master of this with limited tools and it was even done well in X, X-2, and fairly well in XII… I just don’t know what happened with the mess that was XIII…

Nah, I like Jazz myself, but w/e that was in XIII it was bad. Tracks themselves ain’t good already plus whatever plays at the background doesn’t fit w/e was happening on screen.

Damn I said this like 3 days ago in the FF thread about the 1st Production Department Premier Show

Oh definitely. Next year hopefully. SMH we are gonna see XIII-2 first

Man the music was one of the few things I actually LIKED about XIII…

^Word.

The battle theme was ill. The whole soundtrack felt more light than other FF’s

99.9% of the music in XIII was ass. jazz in an rpg? take that shit elsewhere, out of ff, IMO.
the only songs that were decent were the following, IMHO:

whoever greenlit the other songs should have been fired by now.
