The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

Re: The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

Random Fun Fact: One of the Square Enix developers (Tetsuya Nomura I think) admitted that the linearity was inspired by western FPS games like Halo (?). And remaking FFVII would take 10-12 years (also ?).

I was waiting for someone to mention this.

Western Audiences are ****ing retarded, several reviewers that awarded Halo/MW2/GoW/randomcrappyshooter perfect scores are dumping on FF13.

Maybe they just don't like the presentation of linear western FPS games in a simulated, highly-automated, turn-based system.

But MW2/GoW2 and Halo3/ODST all sucked =\

Re: The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

Yeah, I agree with Lighting, Fang and Hope being the best team. I tried to keep Vanilla in but she kept dying way too fast.

I am on chapter 10 and so far I have been avoiding some enemies. Not so much because they are too hard, but they take forever to kill. Gets annoying.

The more I go on, the more messed up and stupid the story seems to get.

Final Fantasy has never been known for its ground-breaking and realistic names.

Re: The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

Yeah, but they were passable. I'll buy Cloud, but Lightning, and Hope??? I was waiting for Change to show up, both being led by a charasmatic black man.

...and lol Jim Sterling review. Beware, it's not pretty...

I got it.

The game plays itself, but the story doesn't.

Wow, what a douchey review.

Re: The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

I enjoy Jim Sterling, especially for turning me onto Deadly Premonition. Hey, another thing that alienates me from the rest of the Pav! \o/

I don't see how he could say the MUSIC is so bad....

Re: The Official Final Fantasy XIII Topic

People ragged on XII's music, too. :c

If anything, I'd say XIII's music is the thing that most draws me toward it at this moment.
